# \[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 006/167\] Drivers: hv: kvp: Fix two "this statement may fall through" warnings - From: Sasha Levin \ - Date: 2019-09-03 16:39:39 - List: linux-hyperv - Page: https://ratatoskr.run/linux-hyperv/2019/09/5707451 - Thread: https://ratatoskr.run/stable/2019/09/5707281/t/3.md ```text From: Dexuan Cui [ Upstream commit fc62c3b1977d62e6374fd6e28d371bb42dfa5c9d ] We don't need to call process_ib_ipinfo() if message->kvp_hdr.operation is KVP_OP_GET_IP_INFO in kvp_send_key(), because here we just need to pass on the op code from the host to the userspace; when the userspace returns the info requested by the host, we pass the info on to the host in kvp_respond_to_host() -> process_ob_ipinfo(). BTW, the current buggy code actually doesn't cause any harm, because only message->kvp_hdr.operation is used by the userspace, in the case of KVP_OP_GET_IP_INFO. The patch also adds a missing "break;" in kvp_send_key(). BTW, the current buggy code actually doesn't cause any harm, because in the case of KVP_OP_SET, the unexpected fall-through corrupts message->body.kvp_set.data.key_size, but that is not really used: see the definition of struct hv_kvp_exchg_msg_value.
