Subject: [PATCH] [RFC] blk-iocost stringop-overread warning workaround
Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2021 15:15:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210920131516.2437790-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

In some randconfig builds with gcc-11, I get a warning from
the fortified string helpers:

In function 'memcpy',
    inlined from 'ioc_cost_model_write' at block/blk-iocost.c:3345:2:
include/linux/fortify-string.h:20:33: error: '__builtin_memcpy' reading 48 bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
   20 | #define __underlying_memcpy     __builtin_memcpy
      |                                 ^
include/linux/fortify-string.h:191:16: note: in expansion of macro '__underlying_memcpy'
  191 |         return __underlying_memcpy(p, q, size);
      |                ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't see anything wrong in the code itself, so I suspect it's
gcc doing something weird again. The only way I could find to make
this warning go away is to hide the object using the RELOC_HIDE()
macro, but this is really ugly and I hope someone has a better
idea.
