IS_ERR_VALUE() assumes that parameter is an unsigned long.
It can not be used to check if 'unsigned int' is passed insted.
Which tends to reflect an error.
In 64bit architectures sizeof (int) == 4 && sizeof (long) == 8.
IS_ERR_VALUE(x) is ((x) >= (unsigned long)-4095).
IS_ERR_VALUE() of 'unsigned int' is always false because the 32bit
value is zero extended to 64 bits.
Now Problem In UCC fast protocols -: drivers/soc/fsl/qe/ucc_fast.c
/* Allocate memory for Tx Virtual Fifo */
uccf->ucc_fast_tx_virtual_fifo_base_offset =
qe_muram_alloc(uf_info->utfs, UCC_FAST_VIRT_FIFO_REGS_ALIGNMENT);
if (IS_ERR_VALUE(uccf->ucc_fast_tx_virtual_fifo_base_offset)) {
printk(KERN_ERR "%s: cannot allocate MURAM for TX FIFO\n",
__func__);
uccf->ucc_fast_tx_virtual_fifo_base_offset = 0;
ucc_fast_free(uccf);
return -ENOMEM;
}
/* Allocate memory for Rx Virtual Fifo */
uccf->ucc_fast_rx_virtual_fifo_base_offset =
qe_muram_alloc(uf_info->urfs +
UCC_FAST_RECEIVE_VIRTUAL_FIFO_SIZE_FUDGE_FACTOR,
UCC_FAST_VIRT_FIFO_REGS_ALIGNMENT);
if (IS_ERR_VALUE(uccf->ucc_fast_rx_virtual_fifo_base_offset)) {
printk(KERN_ERR "%s: cannot allocate MURAM for RX FIFO\n",
__func__);
uccf->ucc_fast_rx_virtual_fifo_base_offset = 0;
ucc_fast_free(uccf);
return -ENOMEM;
}
qe_muram_alloc (a.k.a. cpm_muram_alloc) returns unsigned long.
Return value store in a u32 (ucc_fast_tx_virtual_fifo_base_offset
and ucc_fast_rx_virtual_fifo_base_offset).If qe_muram_alloc will
return any error, Then IS_ERR_VALUE will always return 0. it'll not
call ucc_fast_free for any failure. Inside 'if code' will be a dead
code on 64bit.
This patch is to avoid this problem on 64bit machine.
