From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The call to ath11k_core_firmware_request is returning a pointer that can be set to an error code, however, this is not being checked. Instead ret is being incorrecly checked for the error return. Fix the error checking. Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code") Fixes: 7b57b2ddec21 ("ath11k: create a common function to request all firmware files") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/qmi.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/qmi.c b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/qmi.c index 91134510364c..4792857678b9 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/qmi.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/qmi.c @@ -1886,7 +1886,7 @@ ath11k_qmi_prepare_bdf_download(struct ath11k_base *ab, int type, break; case ATH11K_QMI_FILE_TYPE_CALDATA: fw_entry = ath11k_core_firmware_request(ab, ATH11K_DEFAULT_CAL_FILE); - if (ret) { + if (PTR_ERR(fw_entry)) { ath11k_warn(ab, "failed to load %s: %d\n", ATH11K_DEFAULT_CAL_FILE, ret); goto out; -- 2.27.0
