Subject: [PATCH 4/9] debugfs: Silence DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS=y warning
Date: Thu, 12 May 2011 16:50:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1305244212-19183-5-git-send-email-sboyd@codeaurora.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1305244212-19183-1-git-send-email-sboyd@codeaurora.org>
Enabling DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS causes the following
warning:
In file included from arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:573,
from include/linux/uaccess.h:5,
from include/linux/highmem.h:7,
from include/linux/pagemap.h:10,
from fs/debugfs/file.c:18:
In function 'copy_from_user',
inlined from 'write_file_bool' at fs/debugfs/file.c:435:
arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:65: warning: call to
'copy_from_user_overflow' declared with attribute warning:
copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct
presumably due to buf_size being signed causing GCC to fail to
see that buf_size can't become negative.
