Subject: [PATCH v5] net: mac802154: comparision issue of type cast, finding by EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2013 18:49:55 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51790A53.8040107@asianux.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5178FE6A.3050108@redhat.com>


Change MAC802154_CHAN_NONE from ~(u8)0 to 0xff, or the comparison in
mac802154_wpan_xmit() for ``chan == MAC802154_CHAN_NONE'' will not
succeed.

This bug can be boiled down to ``u8 foo = 0xff; if (foo == ~(u8)0)
[...] else [...]'' where the condition will always take the else
branch.
