On one side we have indio_dev->num_channels includes all physical channels +
timestamp channel. On other side we have an array allocated only for
physical channels. So, fix memory corruption by ARRAY_SIZE() instead of
num_channels variable.

Hi Olesij,

Have you managed to make this occur, or is it inspection only?

I 'think' (it's been a while since I looked at the particular code) that the timestamp
bit in active_scan_mask will never actually be set because we handle that as a
separate flag.

So it is indeed an efficiency improvement to not check that bit but I don't think
it's a bug to do so.  More than possible I'm missing something though!

This one had me quite worried when I first read it because this is a very common
pattern to see in IIO drivers.

Jonathan

Yes, this bug has eaten my rx_one and tx_one pointers on probe. I wonted
to use this buffers for read_raw and noticed that they do not exist.

I didn't tested if active_scan_mask will trigger this issue as well, but
It it looked safer to me, to avoid this issue in both places. Even if on
of it is only theoretical.

I was thinking about this as well, because big part of this code was
inspired by other drivers. But i didn't reviewed other places so far.

I got hung up on the first case and failed to notice the second one was
entirely different :(

It certainly does no harm to not check a bit that is never set, so I'm fine with
the change - just don't want to have lots of 'fixes' for this in other drivers
adding noise and pointless backports.  This one is fine because we need the
other part of the patch anyway.

On that note, applied to the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git and marked for stable
with a minor addition to the patch description to make
sure we don't get the first case cargo picked up by anyone who doesn't read this
thread as something to 'fix' everywhere else.

Thanks,

Jonathan
