Hi Colin,
Thanks for the report.
Subject: re: ASoC: sh: Add RZ/G2L SSIF-2 driver
Hi,
Static analysis on linux-next with Coverity has detected an issue in rz_ssi_stop, sound/soc/sh/rz-ssi.c with the following commit:
commit 03e786bd43410fa93e5d2459f7a43e90ff0ae801 Author: Biju Das biju.das.jz@bp.renesas.com Date: Fri Aug 13 10:11:54 2021 +0100
ASoC: sh: Add RZ/G2L SSIF-2 driver
The analysis is as follows:
367 368 /* Wait for idle */ 369 timeout = 100; 370 while (--timeout) {
Wrong operator used (CONSTANT_EXPRESSION_RESULT)
operator_confusion: rz_ssi_reg_readl(ssi, 4) | (33554432UL /* 1UL << 25 */) is always 1/true regardless of the values of its operand. This occurs as the logical operand of if.
371 if (rz_ssi_reg_readl(ssi, SSISR) | SSISR_IIRQ) 372 break; 373 udelay(1); 374 }
I suspect the & operator was intended to mask the specific bit.
However
I'm not sure if the intent is to detect if the SSISR_IIRQ bit should be zero or one at the point where the break should occur, hence I'm reporting this issue.
You are correct, it is supposed to be &. The idle condition is set by hw on the BIT(25) of this register. So it should be &.
I will add your Reported-by tag, when I send the patch.
Thanks, Biju
