The problem is that if port == ARRAY_SIZE() and "gc == &epg->gc[port]"
then that should be treated as invalid.

Fixes: fd935fc421e7 ("gpio: ep93xx: Do not pingpong irq numbers")

Good catch! I overlooked that one.

It's unfortunate but I don't think any of our static checkers would have
caught it.  You found this bug because of cppcheck, right?  I know it
warns about the bounds test after use.  Does it also warn about the out
of bounds?

Smatch doesn't warn about the out of bounds read because Smatch has bad
handling of loops.  Smatch is supposed to warn about the test after use
but that code is buggy.  I will investigate what's going on.

I have an unpublished test so Smatch does warn that the port < sizeof()
means that port is in terms of bytes but we're using it as an array
offset.  That's how I noticed this code, but it only warns about the
first use, so it warns about the loop but not the post-loop test.

I should fix Smatch's handling of loops so that we know this function
originally could return 0-8 and you maybe get a warning in the caller.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure I would have paid very much attention to a
warning like that because they tend to be prone to false positives.  We
have a lot of loops that do:

	for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(array); i++) {
		if (foo <= array[i])
			break;
	}

And the last element of the array[] is UINT_MAX so we always break.
It's a lot of work but not necessarily difficult work.

regards,
dan carpenter

It can catch these, not sure how well it compares to the other tools I use.

..yep, the are a lot of these to fix up for sure.
