Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Compiler Attributes: disable __counted_by for clang < 19.1.3
Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2024 15:00:36 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241029140036.577804-2-kernel@jfarr.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241029140036.577804-1-kernel@jfarr.cc>

This patch disables __counted_by for clang versions < 19.1.3 because
of the two issues listed below. It does this by introducing
CONFIG_CC_HAS_COUNTED_BY.

1. clang < 19.1.2 has a bug that can lead to __bdos returning 0:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/110497

2. clang < 19.1.3 has a bug that can lead to __bdos being off by 4:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/112636

Fixes: c8248faf3ca2 ("Compiler Attributes: counted_by: Adjust name and identifier expansion")
