Examples of errors detected by the V768 diagnostic

V768. Variable is of enum type. It is suspicious that it is used as a variable of a Boolean-type.


LLVM/Clang

V768 The enumeration constant 'S_MOVRELS_B64' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. gcnhazardrecognizer.cpp 75


namespace AMDGPU {
  enum {
    ....
    S_MOVRELS_B64 = 4043,
    ....
  };
}

static bool isSMovRel(unsigned Opcode) {
  return
    Opcode == AMDGPU::S_MOVRELS_B32 || AMDGPU::S_MOVRELS_B64 ||
    Opcode == AMDGPU::S_MOVRELD_B32 || AMDGPU::S_MOVRELD_B64;
}

Similar errors can be found in some other places:

  • V768 The enumeration constant 'S_MOVRELD_B64' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. gcnhazardrecognizer.cpp 76

MySQL

V768 The enumeration constant 'wkb_multilinestring' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. item_geofunc.cc 1887


enum wkbType
{
  wkb_invalid_type= 0,
  wkb_first= 1,
  wkb_point= 1,
  wkb_linestring= 2,
  wkb_polygon= 3,
  wkb_multipoint= 4,
  wkb_multilinestring= 5,
  wkb_multipolygon= 6,
  wkb_geometrycollection= 7,
  wkb_polygon_inner_rings= 31,
  wkb_last=31
};

bool append_geometry(....)
{
  ....
  if (header.wkb_type == Geometry::wkb_multipoint)
    ....
  else if (header.wkb_type == Geometry::wkb_multipolygon)
    ....
  else if (Geometry::wkb_multilinestring)
    ....
  else
    DBUG_ASSERT(false);
  ....
}

Firebird

V768 The variable 'traScope' is of enum type. It is odd that it is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. stmtnodes.cpp 3448


namespace EDS {
  ....
  enum TraScope {traAutonomous = 1, traCommon, traTwoPhase};
  ....
}

class ExecStatementNode : ....
{
  ....
  EDS::TraScope traScope;
  ....
};

void ExecStatementNode::genBlr(DsqlCompilerScratch* dsqlScratch)
{
  ....
  if (traScope)
  ....
  ....
}

SwiftShader

V768 CWE-571 The enumeration constant 'Lshr' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. subzeroreactor.cpp 712


static Value *createArithmetic(Ice::InstArithmetic::OpKind op,
                               Value *lhs, Value *rhs)
{
  assert(lhs->getType() == rhs->getType() ||
         (llvm::isa<Ice::Constant>(rhs) &&
          (op == Ice::InstArithmetic::Shl ||
           Ice::InstArithmetic::Lshr ||
           Ice::InstArithmetic::Ashr)));
  ....
}

Here is the correct version of code: assert(lhs->getType() == rhs->getType() || (llvm::isa<Ice::Constant>(rhs) && (op == Ice::InstArithmetic::Shl || op == Ice::InstArithmetic::Lshr || op == Ice::InstArithmetic::Ashr)));

Similar errors can be found in some other places:

  • V768 CWE-571 The enumeration constant 'Ashr' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. subzeroreactor.cpp 712

XNU kernel

V768 CWE-571 The expression 'new_codec = CMODE_HYB' is of enum type. It is odd that it is used as an expression of a Boolean-type. vm_compressor_algorithms.c 419


typedef enum {
  CMODE_WK = 0,
  CMODE_LZ4 = 1,
  CMODE_HYB = 2,
  VM_COMPRESSOR_DEFAULT_CODEC = 3,
  CMODE_INVALID = 4
} vm_compressor_mode_t;

void vm_compressor_algorithm_init(void) {
  ....
  assertf(((new_codec == VM_COMPRESSOR_DEFAULT_CODEC) ||
           (new_codec == CMODE_WK) ||
           (new_codec == CMODE_LZ4) || (new_codec = CMODE_HYB)),
          "Invalid VM compression codec: %u", new_codec);
  ....
}

In the expression the value 2 is assigned to the variable new_codec. Because of this the condition is always true and assertf will check nothing. The value of the variable new_codec is additionally spoiled.


RT-Thread

V768 CWE-571 The enumeration constant 'PWM_CHANNEL_DUAL_EDGE' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. lpc_pwm.c 538


void PWM_ChannelConfig(uint8_t pwmId, uint8_t PWMChannel,
                       uint8_t ModeOption)
{
  LPC_PWM_TypeDef* pPwm = PWM_GetPointer(pwmId);

  // Single edge mode
  if (ModeOption == PWM_CHANNEL_SINGLE_EDGE)
  {
    pPwm->PCR &=
      (~ PWM_PCR_PWMSELn(PWMChannel)) & PWM_PCR_BITMASK;
  }
  // Double edge mode
  else if (PWM_CHANNEL_DUAL_EDGE)
  {
    pPwm->PCR |= PWM_PCR_PWMSELn(PWMChannel);
  }
}

Krita

V768 The enumeration constant 'BatchMode' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. KisMainWindow.cpp 811


bool KisMainWindow::openDocument(const QUrl &url,
                                 OpenFlags flags)
{
    if (!QFile(url.toLocalFile()).exists()) {
        if (!flags && BatchMode) {              // <=
            QMessageBox::critical(0,
                                  i18nc("....", "Krita"),
                                  i18n("....", url.url()));
        }
        ....
    }
    ....
}

Krita

V768 The enumeration constant 'State_Active' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. KisOpenPane.cpp 104


void paint(....) const override
{
    QStyledItemDelegate::paint(painter, option, index);

    if(!(option.state & (int)(QStyle::State_Active &&  // <=
                              QStyle::State_Enabled))) // <=
    {
        ....
    }
}

Android

V768 CWE-571 The enumeration constant 'CHANGE_DISPLAY_INFO' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. InputReader.cpp 3016


enum {
  ....
  CHANGE_DISPLAY_INFO = 1 << 2,
  ....
};

void RotaryEncoderInputMapper::configure(nsecs_t when,
        const InputReaderConfiguration* config, uint32_t changes) {
  ....
  if (!changes ||
      (InputReaderConfiguration::CHANGE_DISPLAY_INFO)) {
  ....
}

Most likely this is what should be written here: if (!changes || (changes & InputReaderConfiguration::CHANGE_DISPLAY_INFO)) {


Qt

V768 CWE-571 The enumeration constant 'WindingFill' is used as a variable of a Boolean-type. qpainterpath.cpp 2479


enum FillRule {
  OddEvenFill,
  WindingFill
};

QDataStream &operator>>(QDataStream &s, QPainterPath &p)
{
  ....
  int fillRule;
  s >> fillRule;
  Q_ASSERT(fillRule == Qt::OddEvenFill || Qt::WindingFill);
  ....
}

  if (fPruneStrength < 0) fAutomatic = kTRUE;
  else fAutomatic = kFALSE;
  if (fAutomatic && fPruneMethod==!DecisionTree::kCostComplexityPruning){
    Log() << kFATAL
          <<  "Sorry automatic pruning strength determination is ...." << Endl;
  }
  ....
}
