If ffz() ever returns a value >= 31 then the following shift is undefined behaviour because the literal 1 which gets shifted is treated as signed integer. In practice, the bug is probably harmless, since the first undefined shift count is 31 which results - ignoring UB - in (int)(0x80000000). This gets sign extended so bit 32-63 will be set as well and all subsequent __setup_irq() calls would just end up hitting the -EBUSY branch. However, a sufficiently aggressive optimizer may use the UB of 1<<31 to decide that doesn't happen, and hence elide the sign-extension code, so that subsequent calls can indeed get ffz > 31. In any case, the right thing to do is to make the literal 1UL. [ tglx: For this to happen a single interrupt would have to be shared by 32 devices. Hardware like that does not exist and would have way more problems than that. ] Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
