Currently, usb-line6 module exports an array of MIDI manufacturer ID and usb-pod module uses it. However, the declaration is not the definition in common header. The difference is explicit length of array. Although compiler calculates it and everything goes well, it's better to use the same representation between definition and declaration. This commit fills the length of array for usb-line6 module. As a small good sub-effect, this commit suppress below warnings from static analysis by sparse v0.5.0. sound/usb/line6/driver.c:274:43: error: cannot size expression sound/usb/line6/driver.c:275:16: error: cannot size expression sound/usb/line6/driver.c:276:16: error: cannot size expression sound/usb/line6/driver.c:277:16: error: cannot size expression Fixes: 705ececd1c60 ("Staging: add line6 usb driver") Signed-off-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- sound/usb/line6/driver.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/sound/usb/line6/driver.c +++ b/sound/usb/line6/driver.c @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ /* This is Line 6's MIDI manufacturer ID. */ -const unsigned char line6_midi_id[] = { +const unsigned char line6_midi_id[3] = { 0x00, 0x01, 0x0c }; EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(line6_midi_id); Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from o-takashi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx are queue-4.8/alsa-usb-line6-use-the-same-declaration-as-definition-in-header-for-midi-manufacturer-id.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
