Access to buffer done based on command code, the case complained by FW_RESET_CMD has short buffer but this code path only taken with command 0x30, so this shouldn't be a problem. Adding a size check before accessing to the buffer, as this is control plane code, additional check shouldn't hurt.

Removing can be simpler way to fix the compiler error. --- drivers/net/txgbe/base/txgbe_mng.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/txgbe/base/txgbe_mng.c b/drivers/net/txgbe/base/txgbe_mng.c index df7145094f84..9797b1b8b5da 100644 --- a/drivers/net/txgbe/base/txgbe_mng.c +++ b/drivers/net/txgbe/base/txgbe_mng.c @@ -147,6 +147,10 @@ txgbe_host_interface_command(struct txgbe_hw *hw, u32 *buffer, * two byes instead of one byte */ if (resp->cmd == 0x30) { + if (length < ((dword_len + 2) << 2)) { + err = TXGBE_ERR_HOST_INTERFACE_COMMAND; + goto rel_out; + } for (; bi < dword_len + 2; bi++) buffer[bi] = rd32a(hw, TXGBE_MNGMBX, bi); -- 2.34.1
