Currently, there are coverity defects warning as below:
CID 349937 (#1 of 1): Unintended sign extension (SIGN_EXTENSION)
sign_extension: Suspicious implicit sign extension: port_number with
type uint16_t (16 bits, unsigned) is promoted in port_number << cur_pos
to type int (32 bits, signed), then sign-extended to type unsigned long
(64 bits, unsigned). If port_number << cur_pos is greater than
0x7FFFFFFF, the upper bits of the result will all be 1.
CID 349893 (#1 of 1): Unintended sign extension (SIGN_EXTENSION)
sign_extension: Suspicious implicit sign extension: vlan_tag with type
uint8_t (8 bits, unsigned) is promoted in vlan_tag << cur_pos to type
int (32 bits, signed), then sign-extended to type unsigned long (64
bits, unsigned). If vlan_tag << cur_pos is greater than 0x7FFFFFFF, the
upper bits of the result will all be 1.
This patch fixes them by replacing the data type of port_number and
vlan_tag with uint32_t in the inner static function named
hns3_fd_convert_meta_data of hns3 PMD driver.
Coverity issue: 349937, 349893
