Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.0 11/18] MIPS: BCM47XX: Cast memcmp() of function to (void *)
Date: Sun,  9 Oct 2022 16:51:28 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221009205136.1201774-11-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221009205136.1201774-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

[ Upstream commit 0dedcf6e3301836eb70cfa649052e7ce4fcd13ba ]

Clang is especially sensitive about argument type matching when using
__overloaded functions (like memcmp(), etc). Help it see that function
pointers are just "void *". Avoids this error:

arch/mips/bcm47xx/prom.c:89:8: error: no matching function for call to 'memcmp'
                   if (!memcmp(prom_init, prom_init + mem, 32))
                        ^~~~~~
include/linux/string.h:156:12: note: candidate function not viable: no known conversion from 'void (void)' to 'const void *' for 1st argument extern int memcmp(const void *,const void *,__kernel_size_t);
