My point is that this code is never reached, also regardless of the
condition, the branch would always return -EINVAL.
for (j = 0; j < len; j++) {
if (tcs->cmd_cache[i] != cmd[0].addr) {
if (j == 0)
break;
WARN(tcs->cmd_cache[i + j] != cmd[j].addr,
"Message does not match previous sequence.\n");
return -EINVAL;
} else if (j == len - 1) {
return i;
}
}
Let's single step through this, assuming the sequence of len=3 is in
the cache:
1. j=0
2. (tcs->cmd_cache[i] != cmd[0].addr): false
=> branch with WARN + EINVAL not executed (good, this is the first
command we are looking for)
3. (j == len - 1): false
4. j=1
5. (tcs->cmd_cache[i] != cmd[0].addr): false
=> branch with WARN + EINVAL not executed
6. (j == len - 1): false
7. j=2
8. (tcs->cmd_cache[i] != cmd[0].addr): false
=> branch with WARN + EINVAL not executed
9. (j == len - 1): true
=> return i
Am I getting something wrong here?
