[PATCH] selftests/alsa: Fix format specifier and function mismatch in mixer-test
From: Malaya Kumar Rout
Date: Sun Jul 05 2026 - 13:11:08 EST
In the ctl_value_index_valid() function, when validating 64-bit integer
controls (SND_CTL_ELEM_TYPE_INTEGER64), the error message for maximum
value validation has two bugs:
1. Uses snd_ctl_elem_info_get_max() instead of the 64-bit variant
snd_ctl_elem_info_get_max64()
2. Uses %ld format specifier instead of %lld for long long type
This is inconsistent with the minimum value validation (line 335-339)
which correctly uses get_min64() and %lld. The mismatch can cause:
- Incorrect maximum values being reported on some architectures
- Undefined behavior due to format specifier mismatch
- Potential crashes when printing the error message
Fix by using snd_ctl_elem_info_get_max64() and %lld format specifier
to match the data type and be consistent with the minimum value check.
