Subject: drivers: w1: make w1_slave::flags long to avoid memory corruption
X-Git-Tag: v4.0~2956^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bb67093796a41e0f2601f5c0022fd8873ed59fee;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-amlogic.git

drivers: w1: make w1_slave::flags long to avoid memory corruption

On architectures where long is more then 32 bits, modifying a 32-bit field
with set_bit (and other atomic bit operations) may cause bytes following
the field to by modified.

Because the endianness of the bits within a field is the native endianness
of the CPU[1], on big-endian machines, bit number zero is in the last byte
of the field.

Therefore, `set_bit(0, ptr)' on a 64-bit big-endian machine is roughly
equivalent to `((char *)ptr)[7] |= 1', and since w1 driver uses a 32-bit
field for holding the flags, this causes bytes beyond the field to be
modified.

[1] From Documentation/atomic_ops.txt:

    Native atomic bit operations are defined to operate on objects
    aligned to the size of an "unsigned long" C data type, and are
    least of that size.  The endianness of the bits within each
    "unsigned long" are the native endianness of the cpu.
