6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@xxxxxxxxxx> commit ba9cf6b430433e57bfc8072364e944b7c0eca2a4 upstream. As pointed by Coverity, there is a hidden overflow condition there. As date is signed and u8 is unsigned, doing: date = (data[0] << 24) With a value bigger than 07f will make all upper bits of date 0xffffffff. This can be demonstrated with this small code: <code> typedef int64_t time64_t; typedef uint8_t u8; int main(void) { u8 data[] = { 0xde ,0xad , 0xbe, 0xef }; time64_t date; date = (data[0] << 24) | (data[1] << 16) | (data[2] << 8) | data[3]; printf("Invalid data = 0x%08lx\n", date); date = ((unsigned)data[0] << 24) | (data[1] << 16) | (data[2] << 8) | data[3]; printf("Expected data = 0x%08lx\n", date); return 0; } </code> Fix it by converting the upper bit calculation to unsigned.
