-Subject: powerpc/ptrace: Simplify vr_get/set() to avoid GCC warning
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-GCC 8 warns about the logic in vr_get/set(), which with -Werror breaks
-the build:
-
-  In function ‘user_regset_copyin’,
-      inlined from ‘vr_set’ at arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c:628:9:
-  include/linux/regset.h:295:4: error: ‘memcpy’ offset [-527, -529] is
-  out of the bounds [0, 16] of object ‘vrsave’ with type ‘union
-  <anonymous>’ [-Werror=array-bounds]
-  arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c: In function ‘vr_set’:
-  arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c:623:5: note: ‘vrsave’ declared here
-     } vrsave;
-
-This has been identified as a regression in GCC, see GCC bug 88273.
-
-However we can avoid the warning and also simplify the logic and make
-it more robust.
-
-Currently we pass -1 as end_pos to user_regset_copyout(). This says
-"copy up to the end of the regset".
-
-The definition of the regset is:
-       [REGSET_VMX] = {
-               .core_note_type = NT_PPC_VMX, .n = 34,
-               .size = sizeof(vector128), .align = sizeof(vector128),
-               .active = vr_active, .get = vr_get, .set = vr_set
-       },
-
-The end is calculated as (n * size), ie. 34 * sizeof(vector128).
-
-In vr_get/set() we pass start_pos as 33 * sizeof(vector128), meaning
-we can copy up to sizeof(vector128) into/out-of vrsave.
-
-The on-stack vrsave is defined as:
-  union {
-         elf_vrreg_t reg;
-         u32 word;
-  } vrsave;
-
-And elf_vrreg_t is:
-  typedef __vector128 elf_vrreg_t;
-
-So there is no bug, but we rely on all those sizes lining up,
-otherwise we would have a kernel stack exposure/overwrite on our
-hands.
-
-Rather than relying on that we can pass an explict end_pos based on
-the sizeof(vrsave). The result should be exactly the same but it's
-more obviously not over-reading/writing the stack and it avoids the
-compiler warning.
