This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled dmaengine: pxa_dma: Remove an erroneous BUG_ON() in pxad_free_desc() to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: dmaengine-pxa_dma-remove-an-erroneous-bug_on-in-pxad.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit b293bb4c2bf0ee22c8ab169c53a13b9c0fc26be4 Author: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Oct 7 13:13:09 2023 +0200 dmaengine: pxa_dma: Remove an erroneous BUG_ON() in pxad_free_desc() [ Upstream commit 83c761f568733277ce1f7eb9dc9e890649c29a8c ] If pxad_alloc_desc() fails on the first dma_pool_alloc() call, then sw_desc->nb_desc is zero. In such a case pxad_free_desc() is called and it will BUG_ON(). Remove this erroneous BUG_ON(). It is also useless, because if "sw_desc->nb_desc == 0", then, on the first iteration of the for loop, i is -1 and the loop will not be executed. (both i and sw_desc->nb_desc are 'int') Fixes: a57e16cf0333 ("dmaengine: pxa: add pxa dmaengine driver") Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/c8fc5563c9593c914fde41f0f7d1489a21b45a9a.1696676782.git.christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Vinod Koul <vkoul@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> diff --git a/drivers/dma/pxa_dma.c b/drivers/dma/pxa_dma.c index e613ace79ea83..2731dc27f9d71 100644 --- a/drivers/dma/pxa_dma.c +++ b/drivers/dma/pxa_dma.c @@ -722,7 +722,6 @@ static void pxad_free_desc(struct virt_dma_desc *vd) dma_addr_t dma; struct pxad_desc_sw *sw_desc = to_pxad_sw_desc(vd); - BUG_ON(sw_desc->nb_desc == 0); for (i = sw_desc->nb_desc - 1; i >= 0; i--) { if (i > 0) dma = sw_desc->hw_desc[i - 1]->ddadr;
