The ->parent_tsf[] array holds u8 values.  It type promoted to int for
the shift operation so the "<< 24" shift operation can wrap.  The cast
needs to be done before the shift instead of after.

struct ipw_rt_hdr {
	struct ieee80211_radiotap_header rt_hdr;
	u64 rt_tsf;      /* TSF */	/* XXX */
	u8 rt_flags;	/* radiotap packet flags *
	u8 rt_rate;	/* rate in 500kb/s */
	__le16 rt_channel;	/* channel in mhz */
	__le16 rt_chbitmask;	/* channel bitfield */
	s8 rt_dbmsignal;	/* signal in dbM, kluged to signed */
	s8 rt_dbmnoise;
	u8 rt_antenna;	/* antenna number */
	u8 payload[0];  /* payload... */
} __packed;

Maybe rt_tsf (which is otherwise unused in this code),
should be __le64 so maybe use (u32) ?

	ipw_rt->rt_txf = cpu_to_le64((u32)(frame->parent_tsf[3] << 24 |
					   frame->parent_tsf[2] << 16 |
					   frame->parent_tsf[1] << 8  |
					   frame->parent_tsf[0]));

Al Viro touched this with commit 83f7d57c and added the XXX
when he did a bunch of type conversions from u<foo> to __le<foo>

Dunno what's right.

Hm...  It don't think it makes sense to truncate the top bits away by
truncating to u32.  You may be right though that there is some larger
bugs here than just the truncation.

Both the "frame" and the "ipw_rt" struct seem to hold little endian
values generally so probably ->rt_txf should be an __le64 like you say.

Perhaps the maintainers know what should be done?

dan carpenter

<shrug>  It'd be a tad faster than using multiple 64 bit
operations on a 32 bit machine.

Are there any maintainers left?

Likely this was only ever tested/used on x86 hardware.

Gar...  I am stupid.  The original shift can't wrap.  I don't know what
I was thinking.  Sorry for the noise...

Thanks for checking me on this Joe.

Yes, you are right, the field definition should be __le64 as you
suggest. All values in radiotap header are specified in little endian
byte order according to the documentation at www.radiotap.org.

That looks fine for me. Will you send a patch?
