R. Silva" , linux-hardening-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org Change the notation from pointer-to-array to pointer-to-pointer. With this, we avoid the compiler complaining about trying to access a region of size zero as an argument during function calls. Address the following -Wstringop-overflow warnings seen when built with ARM architecture and aspeed_g4_defconfig configuration (notice that under this configuration CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT == 0): kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:1208:16: warning: 'find_existing_css_set' accessing 4 bytes in a region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=] kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:1258:15: warning: 'css_set_hash' accessing 4 bytes in a region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=] kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:6089:18: warning: 'css_set_hash' accessing 4 bytes in a region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=] kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:6153:18: warning: 'css_set_hash' accessing 4 bytes in a region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=] This results in no differences in binary output.
