Hello Christophe Ricard,

The patch 11f54f228643: "NFC: nci: Add HCI over NCI protocol support" from Feb 1, 2015, leads to the following static checker warning:

	net/nfc/nci/hci.c:297 nci_hci_cmd_received()
	error: buffer overflow 'ndev->hci_dev->pipes' 127 <= 127

net/nfc/nci/hci.c
294 static void nci_hci_cmd_received(struct nci_dev *ndev, u8 pipe,
295 u8 cmd, struct sk_buff *skb)
296 {

   297          u8 gate = ndev->hci_dev->pipes[pipe].gate;
                                               ^^^^

->pipes[] has 127 elements and "pipe" can go up to 127 so this might be reading one element beyond the end of the array.

   298          u8 status = NCI_HCI_ANY_OK | ~NCI_HCI_FRAGMENT;
   299          u8 dest_gate, new_pipe;
   300          struct nci_hci_create_pipe_resp *create_info;
   301          struct nci_hci_delete_pipe_noti *delete_info;
   302          struct nci_hci_all_pipe_cleared_noti *cleared_info;

303
304 pr_debug("from gate %x pipe %x cmd %x\n", gate, pipe, cmd);
305

"pipe" can come from two places but their both essentially the same:

net/nfc/nci/hci.c
413 static void nci_hci_msg_rx_work(struct work_struct *work) 414 {
415 struct nci_hci_dev *hdev =
416 container_of(work, struct nci_hci_dev, msg_rx_work);

   417          struct sk_buff *skb;
   418          struct nci_hcp_message *message;
   419          u8 pipe, type, instruction;
   420  
   421          while ((skb = skb_dequeue(&hdev->msg_rx_queue)) != NULL) {
   422                  pipe = NCI_HCP_MSG_GET_PIPE(skb->data[0]);
                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The NCI_HCP_MSG_GET_PIPE() macro looks like this:

#define NCI_HCP_MSG_GET_PIPE(header) (header & 0x7f)

   423                  skb_pull(skb, NCI_HCI_HCP_PACKET_HEADER_LEN);
   424                  message = (struct nci_hcp_message *)skb->data;
   425                  type = NCI_HCP_MSG_GET_TYPE(message->header);
   426                  instruction = NCI_HCP_MSG_GET_CMD(message->header);
   427                  skb_pull(skb, NCI_HCI_HCP_MESSAGE_HEADER_LEN);

428
429 nci_hci_hcp_message_rx(hdev->ndev, pipe,
430 type, instruction, skb);
431 }
432 }
