Hi all,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

lib/test_kasan.c: In function 'vmalloc_oob':
lib/test_kasan.c:1113:71: error: array subscript 2035 is outside array bounds of 'char[2035]' [-Werror=array-bounds]
1113 | KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL(test, ((volatile char *)v_ptr)[size]);
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~

96 | expression; \

1096 | v_ptr = vmalloc(size);

lib/test_kasan.c:1116:63: error: array subscript 2040 is outside array bounds of 'char[2035]' [-Werror=array-bounds]
1116 | KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL(test, ((volatile char *)v_ptr)[size + 5]);

Caused by commit

96304a5b9bff ("kasan: improve vmalloc tests")

interacting with commit

d4e0dad4a0cd ("Makefile: Enable -Warray-bounds")

from the kspp tree.

Since the KASAN tests are doing this deliberately, I added the below
hack for today. Is there something better?
