Subject: [PATCH] arm64: atomics: Dereference matching size
Date: Fri,  7 Jan 2022 15:27:46 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220107232746.1540130-1-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)

When building with -Warray-bounds (which is desired to be enabled
globally), the following warning is generated:

In file included from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/lse.h:16,
                 from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:14,
                 from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/atomic.h:16,
                 from ./include/linux/atomic.h:7,
                 from ./include/asm-generic/bitops/atomic.h:5,
                 from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/bitops.h:25,
                 from ./include/linux/bitops.h:33,
                 from ./include/linux/kernel.h:22,
                 from kernel/printk/printk.c:22:
./arch/arm64/include/asm/atomic_lse.h:247:9: warning: array subscript 'long unsigned int[0]' is partly outside array bounds of 'atomic_t[1]' [-Warray-bounds]

 3606 | static atomic_t printk_cpulock_owner = ATOMIC_INIT(-1);
      |                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is due to the compiler seeing an unsigned long * cast against
something (atomic_t) that is int sized. Replace the cast with the
matching size cast. This results in no change in binary output.
