[PATCH] serial: mxs-auart: Fix potential infinite loop

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On the error path of mxs_auart_request_gpio_irq() is performed
backward iterating with index i of enum type. Underline enum type
may be unsigned char. In this case check (--i >= 0) will be always
true and error handling goes into infinite loop.

The patch changes type of index variable to int.
