Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: netcp: ethss: Fix type of first parameter in hwtstamp stubs
Date: Fri, 07 Nov 2025 20:19:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251107-netcp_ethss-fix-cpts-stubs-clang-wifpts-v1-1-a80a30c429a8@kernel.org> (raw)

When building with -Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict, a
warning designed to catch control flow integrity violations at compile
time, there are several instances in netcp_ethss.c when CONFIG_TI_CPTS
is not set:

  drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_ethss.c:3831:18: warning: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'int (*)(void *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct gbe_intf *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *)' [-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
   3831 |         .hwtstamp_get   = gbe_hwtstamp_get,
        |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_ethss.c:3832:18: warning: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'int (*)(void *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *, struct netlink_ext_ack *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct gbe_intf *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *, struct netlink_ext_ack *)' [-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
   3832 |         .hwtstamp_set   = gbe_hwtstamp_set,
        |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_ethss.c:3850:18: warning: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'int (*)(void *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct gbe_intf *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *)' [-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
   3850 |         .hwtstamp_get   = gbe_hwtstamp_get,
        |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_ethss.c:3851:18: warning: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'int (*)(void *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *, struct netlink_ext_ack *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct gbe_intf *, struct kernel_hwtstamp_config *, struct netlink_ext_ack *)' [-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
   3851 |         .hwtstamp_set   = gbe_hwtstamp_set,
        |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While 'void *' and 'struct gbe_intf *' are ABI compatible, hence no
regular warning from -Wincompatible-function-pointer-types, the mismatch
will trigger a kCFI violation when gbe_hwtstamp_get() or
gbe_hwtstamp_set() are called indirectly. The types were updated for the
CONFIG_TI_CPTS=y implementations but not the CONFIG_TI_CPTS=n ones.

Update the type of the first parameter in the CONFIG_TI_CPTS=n stubs to
resolve the warning/CFI violation.
