If this builds, I guess #define BIT(x) got pulled in indirectly
since bits.h nor bitops.h is currently #included in that source file.

Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst rule #1 says:
1) If you use a facility then #include the file that defines/declares
   that facility.  Don't depend on other header files pulling in ones
   that you use.

Please add #include <linux/bits or bitops.h>

I'm not sure about this patch. '1 << 31' is used all over in the kernel,
including in public headers (e.g. media.h, videodev2.h).

It seems arbitrary to change it only here, but not anywhere else.

In this particular example for the fourcc handling I would prefer to just
use '1U << 31', both in v4l2-ioctl.c and videodev2.h.

A separate patch doing the same for MEDIA_ENT_ID_FLAG_NEXT in media.h would
probably be a good idea either: that way the public API at least will do
the right thing.

Regards,

It does build. You are right that I should have included bitops.h

Right. We have several places in the kernel that do that.

If you would like to take the patch, I can send v2 fixing it using
1U << 31 - This is simpler since it doesn't nee additional includes.

I should have explained it better. I wanted to start with one or two
places first to see if it is worth our time to fix these:

The full kernel cppcheck log for "Shifting signed 32-bit value by 31 
bits is undefined behaviour" can be found at:

I would like to have this cleaned up in the public media APIs. Those can be
used by other compilers as well and it makes sense to me not to have
undefined behavior in those headers.

I don't think it makes sense to fix this for drivers. If gcc would do this
wrong, we'd have noticed it ages ago.

But I think it makes sense to fix this in public headers.

Great. That is a good point. I will start looking at the public media
APIs.

Agreed. I am not concerned about it being incorrect. More for silencing
cppcheck. I do agree that it isn't of a great value to us.

Yes. This would definitely help.

Did some research into this. We are fine with gcc, however looks like
clang had the problem which has been fixed very recently in late 2018
in 6.0 release. This will be a problem even for kernel/drivers if older
clang is used to build it.

I am sending the two header fixes (media.h, and videodev2.h) to start
with.
