[PATCH stable <3.17] MIPS: KVM: Do not sign extend on unsigned MMIO load

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@xxxxxxxxx>

commit ed9244e6c534612d2b5ae47feab2f55a0d4b4ced upstream.

Fix possible unintended sign extension in unsigned MMIO loads by casting
to uint16_t in the case of mmio_needed != 2.

This is a trivial backport (i.e. git cherry-pick, git format-patch) for
stable branches before v3.17, due to the commit d7d5b05faf16 ("MIPS:
KVM: Rename files to remove the prefix "kvm_" and "kvm_mips_"") which
renamed a bunch of files including this one.
