The qnx4 directory entries are 64-byte blocks that have different contents depending on the a status byte that is in the last byte of the block. In particular, a directory entry can be either a "link info" entry with a 48-byte name and pointers to the real inode information, or an "inode entry" with a smaller 16-byte name and the full inode information. But the code was written to always just treat the directory name as if it was part of that "inode entry", and just extend the name to the longer case if the status byte said it was a link entry. That work just fine and gives the right results, but now that gcc is tracking data structure accesses much more, the code can trigger a compiler error about using up to 48 bytes (the long name) in a structure that only has that shorter name in it: fs/qnx4/dir.c: In function ‘qnx4_readdir’: fs/qnx4/dir.c:51:32: error: ‘strnlen’ specified bound 48 exceeds source size 16 [-Werror=stringop-overread] 51 | size = strnlen(de->di_fname, size); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In file included from fs/qnx4/qnx4.h:3, from fs/qnx4/dir.c:16: include/uapi/linux/qnx4_fs.h:45:25: note: source object declared here 45 | char di_fname[QNX4_SHORT_NAME_MAX]; | ^~~~~~~~ which is because the source code doesn't really make this whole "one of two different types" explicit. Fix this by introducing a very explicit union of the two types, and basically explaining to the compiler what is really going on. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The sparc mdesc code does pointer games with 'struct mdesc_hdr', but didn't describe to the compiler how that header is then followed by the data that the header describes. As a result, gcc is now unhappy since it does stricter pointer range tracking, and doesn't understand about how these things work. This results in various errors like: arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c: In function ‘mdesc_node_by_name’: arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c:647:22: error: ‘strcmp’ reading 1 or more bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread] 647 | if (!strcmp(names + ep[ret].name_offset, name)) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ which are easily avoided by just describing 'struct mdesc_hdr' better, and making the node_block() helper function look into that unsized data[] that follows the header. This makes the sparc64 build happy again at least for my cross-compiler version (gcc version 11.2.1).

The lib/bootconfig.c file is shared with the 'bootconfig' tooling, and as a result, the changes incommit 77e02cf5 ("memblock: introduce saner 'memblock_free_ptr()' interface") need to also be reflected in the tooling header file. So define the new memblock_free_ptr() wrapper, and remove unused __pa() and memblock_free().

On sparc64, __fls() returns an "int", but the drm TTM code expected it to be "unsigned long" as on x86. As a result, on sparc (and arc, and m68k) you get build errors because 'min()' checks that the types match. As suggested by Linus, it can use min_t instead of min to force the type to be "unsigned int".

The boot-time allocation interface for memblock is a mess, with 'memblock_alloc()' returning a virtual pointer, but then you are supposed to free it with 'memblock_free()' that takes a _physical_ address. Not only is that all kinds of strange and illogical, but it actually causes bugs, when people then use it like a normal allocation function, and it fails spectacularly on a NULL pointer: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210912140820.GD25450@xsang-OptiPlex-9020/ or just random memory corruption if the debug checks don't catch it: https://lore.kernel.org/all/61ab2d0c-3313-aaab-514c-e15b7aa054a0@suse.cz/ I really don't want to apply patches that treat the symptoms, when the fundamental cause is this horribly confusing interface. I started out looking at just automating a sane replacement sequence, but because of this mix or virtual and physical addresses, and because people have used the "__pa()" macro that can take either a regular kernel pointer, or just the raw "unsigned long" address, it's all quite messy. So this just introduces a new saner interface for freeing a virtual address that was allocated using 'memblock_alloc()', and that was kept as a regular kernel pointer. And then it converts a couple of users that are obvious and easy to test, including the 'xbc_nodes' case in lib/bootconfig.c that caused problems.

Linus proposes to revert an accounting for sops objects in do_semtimedop() because it's really just a temporary buffer for a single semtimedop() system call. This object can consume up to 2 pages, syscall is sleeping one, size and duration can be controlled by user, and this allocation can be repeated by many thread at the same time. However Shakeel Butt pointed that there are much more popular objects with the same life time and similar memory consumption, the accounting of which was decided to be rejected for performance reasons. Considering at least 2 pages for task_struct and 2 pages for the kernel stack, a back of the envelope calculation gives a footprint amplification of <1.5 so this temporal buffer can be safely ignored. The factor would IMO be interesting if it was >> 2 (from the PoV of excessive (ab)use, fine-grained accounting seems to be currently unfeasible due to performance impact).

Stephen reported that the build was broken since commit 6d2ef226 ("compiler_attributes.h: drop __has_attribute() support for gcc4"), with errors such as: include/linux/compiler_attributes.h:296:5: warning: "__has_attribute" is not defined, evaluates to 0 [-Wundef] 296 | #if __has_attribute(__warning__) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile:225: arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.o] Error 1 But we expect __has_attribute() to always be defined now that we've stopped using GCC 4. Linus debugged it to the point of reading the GCC sources, and noticing that the problem is that __has_attribute() is not defined when preprocessing assembly files, which is what we're doing here. Our assembly files don't include, or need, compiler_attributes.h, but they are getting it unconditionally from the -include in BOOT_CFLAGS, which is then added in its entirety to BOOT_AFLAGS. That -include was added in commit 77433830 ("powerpc: boot: include compiler_attributes.h") so that we'd have "fallthrough" and other attributes defined for the C files in arch/powerpc/boot. But it's not needed for assembly files. The minimal fix is to move the addition to BOOT_CFLAGS of -include compiler_attributes.h until after we've copied BOOT_CFLAGS into BOOT_AFLAGS. That avoids including compiler_attributes.h for asm files, but makes no other change to BOOT_CFLAGS or BOOT_AFLAGS.

When building objtool with HOSTCC=clang, there are several errors along the lines of orc_dump.c:201:28: error: unknown attribute 'error' ignored [-Werror,-Wunknown-attributes] This occurs after commit 4e59869a ("compiler-gcc.h: drop checks for older GCC versions"), which removed the GCC_VERSION gating. The removed version check just so happened to prevent __compiletime_error() from being defined with clang because it pretends to be GCC 4.2.1 for compatibility but the error attribute was not added to clang until 14.0.0. Commit 815f0ddb ("include/linux/compiler*.h: make compiler-*.h mutually exclusive") and commit a3f8a30f ("Compiler Attributes: use feature checks instead of version checks") refactored the handling of attributes in the main kernel to avoid situations like this but that refactoring has never been done for the tools directory. Refactoring is a rather large undertaking and this has never been an issue before so instead, just guard the definition of __compiletime_error() with __has_attribute() so that there are no more errors.

Merge patch series from Nick Desaulniers to update the minimum gcc version to 5.1. This is some of the left-overs from the merge window that I didn't want to deal with yesterday, so it comes in after -rc1 but was sent before. Gcc-4.9 support has been an annoyance for some time, and with -Werror I had the choice of applying a fairly big patch from Kees Cook to remove a fair number of initializer warnings (still leaving some), or this patch series from Nick that just removes the source of the problem. The initializer cleanups might still be worth it regardless, but honestly, I preferred just tackling the problem with gcc-4.9 head-on. We've been more aggressiuve about no longer having to care about compilers that were released a long time ago, and I think it's been a good thing. I added a couple of patches on top to sort out a few left-overs now that we no longer support gcc-4.x. As noted by Arnd, as a result of this minimum compiler version upgrade we can probably change our use of '--std=gnu89' to '--std=gnu11', and finally start using local loop declarations etc. But this series does _not_ yet do that.

commit fad7cd33 ("nbd: add the check to prevent overflow in __nbd_ioctl()") raised an issue from the fallback helpers added in commit f0907827 ("compiler.h: enable builtin overflow checkers and add fallback code") Specifically, the helpers for checking whether the results of a multiplication overflowed (__unsigned_mul_overflow, __signed_add_overflow) use the division operator when !COMPILER_HAS_GENERIC_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW. This is problematic for 64b operands on 32b hosts. Also, because the macro is type agnostic, it is very difficult to write a similarly type generic macro that dispatches to one of: * div64_s64 * div64_u64 * div_s64 * div_u64 Raising the minimum supported versions allows us to remove all of the fallback helpers for !COMPILER_HAS_GENERIC_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW, instead dispatching the compiler builtins. arm64 has already raised the minimum supported GCC version to 5.1, do this for all targets now. See the link below for the previous discussion.

Commit 865c50e1 ("x86/uaccess: utilize CONFIG_CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT") added an optimised version of __get_user_asm() for x86 using 'asm goto'. Like the non-optimised code, the 32-bit implementation of 64-bit get_user() expands to a pair of 32-bit accesses. Unlike the non-optimised code, the _original_ pointer is incremented to copy the high word instead of loading through a new pointer explicitly constructed to point at a 32-bit type. Consequently, if the pointer points at a 64-bit type then we end up loading the wrong data for the upper 32-bits. This was observed as a mount() failure in Android targeting i686 after b0cfcdd9 ("d_path: make 'prepend()' fill up the buffer exactly on overflow") because the call to copy_from_kernel_nofault() from prepend_copy() ends up in __get_kernel_nofault() and casts the source pointer to a 'u64 __user *'. An attempt to mount at "/debug_ramdisk" therefore ends up failing trying to mount "/debumdismdisk". Use the existing '__gu_ptr' source pointer to unsigned int for 32-bit __get_user_asm_u64() instead of the original pointer.
