[PATCH] net: ravb: Fix dma_addr_t truncation in error case
Posted by Nikita Yushchenko 1 year, 11 months ago
In ravb_start_xmit(), ravb driver uses u32 variable to store result of
dma_map_single() call. Since ravb hardware has 32-bit address fields in
descriptors, this works properly when mapping is successful - it is
platform's job to provide mapping addresses that fit into hardware
limitations.

However, in failure case dma_map_single() returns DMA_MAPPING_ERROR
constant that is 64-bit when dma_addr_t is 64-bit. Storing this constant
in u32 leads to truncation, and further call to dma_mapping_error()
fails to notice the error.

Fix that by storing result of dma_map_single() in a dma_addr_t
variable.

Nit: since this is a bug fix you should prefix your patches with "[PATCH 
net]", see:
