[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 03/66] serial: mxs-auart: Fix potential infinite loop

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

 



From: Anton Vasilyev <vasilyev@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 5963e8a3122471cadfe0eba41c4ceaeaa5c8bb4d ]

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 the check so that it is valid for signed and unsigned
types.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
