Looks good, thanks. Maybe split into two or three paragraphs for readability.

Thanks for the great feedback I appreciate it. Will do the resend of
course.

I mixed the above in with the current commit message:

Without MMU support PCI_IOBASE is left undefined because PCI_IO_END is
VMEMMAP_START. Nevertheless the in*()/out*() helper macros are left
defined with uses of PCI_IOBASE. At the moment this only compiles
because asm-generic/io.h defines PCI_IOBASE as 0 if it is undefined and
so at macro expansion PCI_IOBASE is defined. This leads to compilation
errors when asm-generic/io.h is changed to leave PCI_IOBASE undefined.
More importantly it is currently broken at runtime, as accessing a fixed
I/O port number of an ISA device on NOMMU RISC-V would turn into a NULL
pointer dereference. Instead only define the in*()/out*() helper macros
with MMU support and fall back to the asm-generic/io.h helper stubs
otherwise.

This looks all fine to me, but with the merge window open right now, I
can't add it into linux-next yet, and it wouldn't qualify as a bugfix for 5.13.

Please resend them to me after -rc1 is out so I can merge it for
5.14 through the asm-generic tree.

Please add two small changes to the changelog texts:

- for patch 3, please include a 'Link: tag' to the lore archive of the
  previous discussion, that should cover any questions that people
  may have

- for the risc-v patch, I would suggest explaining that this fixes
  an existing runtime bug, not just a compiler error:
  | This is already broken, as accessing a fixed I/O port number of
  | an ISA device on NOMMU RISC-V would turn into a NULL pointer
  | dereference.
  Feel free to either copy this, or use your own explanation.

[PATCH v4 0/3] asm-generic/io.h: Silence -Wnull-pointer-arithmetic warning on PCI_IOBASE

2021-04-30 Thread Niklas Schnelle
From: Niklas Schnelle 

Hi,

This is version 4 of my attempt to get rid of a clang
-Wnull-pointer-arithmetic warning for the use of PCI_IOBASE in
asm-generic/io.h. This was originally found on s390 but should apply to
all platforms leaving PCI_IOBASE undefined while making use of the inb()
and friends helpers from asm-generic/io.h.

This applies cleanly and was compile tested on top of v5.12 for the
previously broken ARC, nds32, h8300 and risc-v architecture

I did boot test this only on x86_64 and s390x the former implements
inb() itself while the latter would emit a WARN_ONCE() but no drivers
use inb().

Thanks,
Niklas

Changes since v3:
- Changed the subject of the last patch to better reflect the actual
  change i.e. the addition of WARN_ONCE() to the helpers not the
  silencing of the clang warning
- Added asm/bug.h to asm-generic/io.h so it doesn't have to be included
  previously by all arches to be available for the WARN_ONCE()
- Added patch for risc-v which defines PCI_IOBASE except when compiled
  for nommu

Changes since v2:
- Improved comment for SPARC PCI_IOBASE definition as suggested
  by David Laight
- Added a patch for ARC which is missing the asm/bug.h include for
  WARN_ONCE() (kernel test robot)
- Added ifdefs to ioport_map() and __pci_ioport_map() since apparently
  at least test configs enable CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT_MAP even on
  architectures which leave PCI_IOBASE unset (kernel test robot for
  nds32 and ARC).

Changes since v1:
- Added patch to explicitly set PCI_IOBASE to 0 on sparc as suggested by
  Arnd Bergmann
- Instead of working around the warning with a uintptr_t PCI_IOBASE make
  inb() and friends explicitly WARN_ONCE() and return 0xff... (Arnd
  Bergmann)

Niklas Schnelle (3):
  sparc: explicitly set PCI_IOBASE to 0
  risc-v: Use generic io.h helpers for nommu
  asm-generic/io.h: warn in inb() and friends with undefined PCI_IOBASE
