Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: fix -Warray-bounds in blob bit-stream pull helpers
Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2026 15:25:26 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261005202526.17981-1-manish.kurup@broadcom.com> (raw)
From: Joey Zhong <xiaozhen.zhong@broadcom.com>
GCC inlines ulp_bs_pull_lsb() and flags the remainder branch:
if (len)
ulp_bs_get_lsb(src, offset, len, &dst[size - 1 - idx]);
After the full-byte loop exits, idx == cnt. When cnt == size with a
non-zero bit remainder (e.g., len = 33 with size = 4), the subscript
size - 1 - idx underflows to UINT32_MAX, producing a -Warray-bounds
false positive (and a genuine out-of-bounds write if len/size are
ever miscalculated upstream of the check that normally prevents
this). ulp_blob_pull() rejects this state via its
ULP_BYTE_2_BITS(data_size) < len check, but GCC cannot carry that
constraint through the inlined call chain.
Changes:
- ulp_bs_pull_lsb / ulp_bs_pull_msb: add unlikely(cnt > size) entry
guard and an explicit likely(idx < size) check on the remainder
branch so GCC can prove all subscripts are in range.
- ulp_bs_pull_msb: add the missing uint32_t size parameter (matching
ulp_bs_pull_lsb) and update its three call sites to pass the
destination buffer size.
- ulp_bs_get_lsb / ulp_bs_get_msb: add unlikely(!bitlen) early exit
to make the zero-length contract explicit.
Fixes: f634204b7ad8 ("net/bnxt: support generic table processing")
