Fix nvram_read_alpha2 copying too many bytes over the ssb_sprom structure. Also fix the arguments of the read_macaddr, although the code was technically not wrong before due to an extra dereference. Signed-off-by: Ilia Mirkin <imirkin@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- I found this with coccinelle. Looking over the code, I'm pretty sure the below patch was the original intent. Or it is I that may be very confused. But if you have an argument like T foo[6], it's essentially equivalent to having an agument of T *foo. I don't even know what &foo.x does when x is declared as T[2]. Right now the memcpy is copying sizeof(val), which is char *val[2], and while I'm not 100% sure how sizeof works in this situation, that will translate to either sizeof(void*) or 2*sizeof(void*). I believe the intent was to only copy 2 bytes, since that is the size of the alpha2 field. The macaddress situation is similar, except that the argument actually gets dereferenced, so it all works out. But I don't think that's necessary. All that said, I haven't even build-tested this (no MIPS toolchain handy). But hopefully this will make sense to someone. arch/mips/bcm47xx/sprom.c | 18 +++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/mips/bcm47xx/sprom.c b/arch/mips/bcm47xx/sprom.c index ad03c93..a8b5408 100644 --- a/arch/mips/bcm47xx/sprom.c +++ b/arch/mips/bcm47xx/sprom.c @@ -135,7 +135,7 @@ static void nvram_read_leddc(const char *prefix, const char *name, } static void nvram_read_macaddr(const char *prefix, const char *name, - u8 (*val)[6], bool fallback) + u8 val[6], bool fallback) { char buf[100]; int err; @@ -144,11 +144,11 @@ static void nvram_read_macaddr(const char *prefix, const char *name, if (err < 0) return; - bcm47xx_nvram_parse_macaddr(buf, *val); + bcm47xx_nvram_parse_macaddr(buf, val); } static void nvram_read_alpha2(const char *prefix, const char *name, - char (*val)[2], bool fallback) + char val[2], bool fallback) { char buf[10]; int err; @@ -162,7 +162,7 @@ static void nvram_read_alpha2(const char *prefix, const char *name, pr_warn("alpha2 is too long %s\n", buf); return; } - memcpy(val, buf, sizeof(val)); + memcpy(val, buf, 2); } static void bcm47xx_fill_sprom_r1234589(struct ssb_sprom *sprom, @@ -180,7 +180,7 @@ static void bcm47xx_fill_sprom_r1234589(struct ssb_sprom *sprom, fallback); nvram_read_s8(prefix, NULL, "ag1", &sprom->antenna_gain.a1, 0, fallback); - nvram_read_alpha2(prefix, "ccode", &sprom->alpha2, fallback); + nvram_read_alpha2(prefix, "ccode", sprom->alpha2, fallback); } static void bcm47xx_fill_sprom_r12389(struct ssb_sprom *sprom, @@ -633,20 +633,20 @@ static void bcm47xx_fill_sprom_path_r45(struct ssb_sprom *sprom, static void bcm47xx_fill_sprom_ethernet(struct ssb_sprom *sprom, const char *prefix, bool fallback) { - nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "et0macaddr", &sprom->et0mac, fallback); + nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "et0macaddr", sprom->et0mac, fallback); nvram_read_u8(prefix, NULL, "et0mdcport", &sprom->et0mdcport, 0, fallback); nvram_read_u8(prefix, NULL, "et0phyaddr", &sprom->et0phyaddr, 0, fallback); - nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "et1macaddr", &sprom->et1mac, fallback); + nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "et1macaddr", sprom->et1mac, fallback); nvram_read_u8(prefix, NULL, "et1mdcport", &sprom->et1mdcport, 0, fallback); nvram_read_u8(prefix, NULL, "et1phyaddr", &sprom->et1phyaddr, 0, fallback); - nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "macaddr", &sprom->il0mac, fallback); - nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "il0macaddr", &sprom->il0mac, fallback); + nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "macaddr", sprom->il0mac, fallback); + nvram_read_macaddr(prefix, "il0macaddr", sprom->il0mac, fallback); } static void bcm47xx_fill_board_data(struct ssb_sprom *sprom, const char *prefix, -- 1.8.3.2
