From ba837d387195ea043900d2101cf90bcc083cff1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrzej Hajda Date: Mon, 15 Feb 2016 15:35:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: module: fix incorrect IS_ERR_VALUE macro usages IS_ERR_VALUE macro should be used only with unsigned long type. Specifically it works incorrectly with longer types. The patch follows conclusion from discussion on LKML [1][2]. [1]: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/2120927 [2]: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/2150581 [ralf@linux-mips.org: While it may not immediately be obvious, the type of st_value in the end is an unsigned long equivalent so the invocation of IS_ERR_VALUE() was valid but I'm applying the patch anyway for clarity.] Signed-off-by: Andrzej Hajda Cc: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz Cc: Marek Szyprowski Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/12553/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle --- arch/mips/kernel/module-rela.c | 2 +- arch/mips/kernel/module.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/module-rela.c b/arch/mips/kernel/module-rela.c index b3611426b128..781168834456 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/module-rela.c +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/module-rela.c @@ -170,7 +170,7 @@ int apply_relocate_add(Elf_Shdr *sechdrs, const char *strtab, /* This is the symbol it is referring to */ sym = (Elf_Sym *)sechdrs[symindex].sh_addr + ELF_MIPS_R_SYM(rel[i]); - if (IS_ERR_VALUE(sym->st_value)) { + if (sym->st_value >= -MAX_ERRNO) { /* Ignore unresolved weak symbol */ if (ELF_ST_BIND(sym->st_info) == STB_WEAK) continue; diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/module.c b/arch/mips/kernel/module.c index ff5d97d2e670..79850e376ef6 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/module.c +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/module.c @@ -263,7 +263,7 @@ int apply_relocate(Elf_Shdr *sechdrs, const char *strtab, /* This is the symbol it is referring to */ sym = (Elf_Sym *)sechdrs[symindex].sh_addr + ELF_MIPS_R_SYM(rel[i]); - if (IS_ERR_VALUE(sym->st_value)) { + if (sym->st_value >= -MAX_ERRNO) { /* Ignore unresolved weak symbol */ if (ELF_ST_BIND(sym->st_info) == STB_WEAK) continue;
