[ Upstream commitd0d378ff45] With CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE, memcpy uses the declared size of operands to detect buffer overflows. If src or dest is declared as a char, attempts to copy more than byte will result in a fortify_panic(). Address this problem in mvebu_setup_boot_addr_wa() by declaring mvebu_boot_wa_start and mvebu_boot_wa_end as character arrays. Also remove a couple addressof operators to avoid "arithmetic on pointer to an incomplete type" compiler error. See commit54a7d50b92("x86: mark kprobe templates as character arrays, not single characters") for a similar fix. Fixes "detected buffer overflow in memcpy" error during init on some mvebu systems (armada-370-xp, armada-375): (fortify_panic) from (mvebu_setup_boot_addr_wa+0xb0/0xb4) (mvebu_setup_boot_addr_wa) from (mvebu_v7_cpu_pm_init+0x154/0x204) (mvebu_v7_cpu_pm_init) from (do_one_initcall+0x7c/0x1a8) (do_one_initcall) from (kernel_init_freeable+0x1bc/0x254) (kernel_init_freeable) from (kernel_init+0x8/0x114) (kernel_init) from (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x2c) Signed-off-by: Ethan Tuttle <ethan@ethantuttle.com> Tested-by: Ethan Tuttle <ethan@ethantuttle.com> Signed-off-by: Gregory CLEMENT <gregory.clement@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
