[PATCH] IPMI: fix issues reported by Coverity in ipmi_msghandler.c
While looking to the report by Coverity in ipmi, I came across the following issue: The IPMI message handler relies on two defines which are the same -one in include/linux/ipmi.h #define IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS 0x10 and one in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler. #define IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS 16 These are used interchangeably in ipmi_msghandler.c, but since the array addr->channels[] is of size IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS, I have made a patch that uses IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS for all the checks for the array index. NOTE: You could probably remove the line that defines IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS from ipmi.h, or move IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS to ipmi.h Signed-off-by: Jayachandran C. <c.jayachandran@gmail.com> Cc: Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
