[PATCH] iommu/dma: Fix check for error return from iommu_map_sg_atomic()
Posted by Niklas Schnelle 3 years, 11 months ago
In __iommu_dma_alloc_noncontiguous() the value returned by
iommu_map_sg_atomic() is checked for being smaller than size. Before
commit ad8f36e4b6b1 ("iommu: return full error code from
iommu_map_sg[_atomic]()") this simply checked if the requested size was
successfully mapped.

After that commit iommu_map_sg_atomic() may also return a negative
error value. In principle this too would be covered by the existing
check. There is one problem however, as size is of type size_t while the
return type of iommu_map_sg_atomic() is now of type ssize_t the latter gets
converted to size_t and negative error values end up as very large
positive values making the check succeed. Fix this by making the return
type visible with a local variable and add an explicit cast to ssize_t.

I don't see what the point of the newly added local variable is here.
Just casting size should be all that is needed as far as I can tell.

No technical reason just found it easier to read and more descriptive.
I'll sent a v2 with just the cast, it does simplify the commit message.

Note that this is already fixed upstream, though:

Ah oh well then nevermind and you can of course also ignore the v2 I
sent out a minute ago.
