Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] misc: amd-sbi: Address copy_to/from_user() warning reported in smatch
Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2025 05:40:41 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250701054041.373358-2-akshay.gupta@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250701054041.373358-1-akshay.gupta@amd.com>
Smatch warnings are reported for below commit,
Commit bb13a84ed6b7 ("misc: amd-sbi: Add support for CPUID protocol")
from Apr 28, 2025 (linux-next), leads to the following Smatch static
checker warning:
drivers/misc/amd-sbi/rmi-core.c:376 apml_rmi_reg_xfer() warn: maybe return -EFAULT instead of the bytes remaining?
drivers/misc/amd-sbi/rmi-core.c:394 apml_mailbox_xfer() warn: maybe return -EFAULT instead of the bytes remaining?
drivers/misc/amd-sbi/rmi-core.c:411 apml_cpuid_xfer() warn: maybe return -EFAULT instead of the bytes remaining?
drivers/misc/amd-sbi/rmi-core.c:428 apml_mcamsr_xfer() warn: maybe return -EFAULT instead of the bytes remaining?
copy_to/from_user() returns number of bytes, not copied.
In case data not copied, return "-EFAULT".
Additionally, fixes the "-EPROTOTYPE" error return as intended.
