Subject: [PATCH 27/28] i2c: cgbc: Propagate hardware errors when polling read status
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:09:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261021121245.3111563-27-lee@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261021121245.3111563-1-lee@kernel.org>
In cgbc_i2c_xfer_msg(), read_poll_timeout() uses the same ret variable
to store the polled return value of cgbc_i2c_get_status() and the
timeout result of the macro itself. When cgbc_i2c_get_status() returns
a negative error code (such as -EIO on an I2C NACK), the loop condition
ret != CGBC_I2C_STAT_BUSY evaluates to true and read_poll_timeout()
overwrites ret with 0. The driver then issues CGBC_I2C_CMD_DATA, which
completes with CGBC_STATUS_CMD_READY without populating msg->buf,
leaving uninitialised heap memory in the caller's read buffer.
Store the polled status in a separate variable, verify that it equals
CGBC_I2C_STAT_DAT, and check that CGBC_I2C_CMD_DATA returns the expected
number of bytes.
Fixes: 6894f640b8f3 ("i2c: Congatec Board Controller i2c bus driver")
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/bug/linux-66cbf4b1-a219-4012-969d-236417bf419a
