Subject: [PATCH v3 6/6] staging: rtl8723bs: use u32 for length variables in rtw_BIP_verify()
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2026 17:23:42 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261007115342.1121742-7-contact.pranavdesai@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261007115342.1121742-1-contact.pranavdesai@gmail.com>
Replace 'uint' with 'u32' for the 'len' and 'ori_len' variables in
the rtw_BIP_verify() function.
These variables are calculated directly from 'pattrib->pkt_len',
which is defined as a u32 in struct pkt_attrib. Explicitly typing
them as u32 prevents potential bounds or overflow issues during
subsequent length calculations.
