This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iio:chemical:atlas-ph-sensor: Fix use of 32 bit int to hold 16 bit to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From d1fe85ec7702917f2f1515b4c421d5d4792201a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sandhya Bankar <bankarsandhya512@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2016 00:46:21 +0530 Subject: iio:chemical:atlas-ph-sensor: Fix use of 32 bit int to hold 16 bit big endian value This will result in a random value being reported on big endian architectures. (thanks to Lars-Peter Clausen for pointing out the effects of this bug) Only effects a value printed to the log, but as this reports the settings of the probe in question it may be of direct interest to users. Also, fixes the following sparse endianness warnings: drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c:215:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16 Signed-off-by: Sandhya Bankar <bankarsandhya512@xxxxxxxxx> Fixes: e8dd92bfbff25 ("iio: chemical: atlas-ph-sensor: add EC feature") Cc: <Stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c | 7 ++++--- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c b/drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c index bd321b305a0a..ef761a508630 100644 --- a/drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c +++ b/drivers/iio/chemical/atlas-ph-sensor.c @@ -213,13 +213,14 @@ static int atlas_check_ec_calibration(struct atlas_data *data) struct device *dev = &data->client->dev; int ret; unsigned int val; + __be16 rval; - ret = regmap_bulk_read(data->regmap, ATLAS_REG_EC_PROBE, &val, 2); + ret = regmap_bulk_read(data->regmap, ATLAS_REG_EC_PROBE, &rval, 2); if (ret) return ret; - dev_info(dev, "probe set to K = %d.%.2d", be16_to_cpu(val) / 100, - be16_to_cpu(val) % 100); + val = be16_to_cpu(rval); + dev_info(dev, "probe set to K = %d.%.2d", val / 100, val % 100); ret = regmap_read(data->regmap, ATLAS_REG_EC_CALIB_STATUS, &val); if (ret) -- 2.10.1 -- 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
