This reminds me of another questionable fall-through: bt-host.c:bt_host_read(): while (s->len --) switch (*pkt ++) { ... case HCI_SCODATA_PKT: if (s->len < 3) goto bad_pkt; pktlen = MIN(pkt[2] + 3, s->len); s->len -= pktlen; pkt += pktlen; <--- fall-through or not? default: bad_pkt: fprintf(stderr, "qemu: bad HCI packet type %02x\n", pkt[-1]); } It seems the code will skip HCI_SCODATA_PKT and report a warning (although type pkt[-1] will be incorrect). Any thoughts? Stefan
