This patch corrects a few warnings to allow selftests to compile for
GCC.
-- progs/cpumask_failure.c --
progs/bpf_misc.h:136:22: error: ‘cpumask’ is used uninitialized
[-Werror=uninitialized]
136 | #define __sink(expr) asm volatile("" : "+g"(expr))
| ^~~
progs/cpumask_failure.c:68:9: note: in expansion of macro ‘__sink’
68 | __sink(cpumask);
The macro __sink(cpumask) with the '+' contraint modifier forces the
the compiler to expect a read and write from cpumask. GCC detects
that cpumask is never initialized and reports an error.
This patch removes the spurious non required definitions of cpumask.
-- progs/dynptr_fail.c --
progs/dynptr_fail.c:1444:9: error: ‘ptr1’ may be used uninitialized
[-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
1444 | bpf_dynptr_clone(&ptr1, &ptr2);
Many of the tests in the file are related to the detection of
uninitialized pointers by the verifier. GCC is able to detect possible
uninitialized values, and reports this as an error.
The patch initializes all of the previous uninitialized structs.
-- progs/test_tunnel_kern.c --
progs/test_tunnel_kern.c:590:9: error: array subscript 1 is outside
array bounds of ‘struct geneve_opt[1]’ [-Werror=array-bounds=]
590 | *(int *) &gopt.opt_data = bpf_htonl(0xdeadbeef);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
progs/test_tunnel_kern.c:575:27: note: at offset 4 into object ‘gopt’ of
size 4
575 | struct geneve_opt gopt;
This tests accesses beyond the defined data for the struct geneve_opt
which contains as last field "u8 opt_data[0]" which clearly does not get
reserved space (in stack) in the function header. This pattern is
repeated in ip6geneve_set_tunnel and geneve_set_tunnel functions.
GCC is able to see this and emits a warning.
The patch introduces a local struct that allocates enough space to
safely allow the write to opt_data field.
-- progs/jeq_infer_not_null_fail.c --
progs/jeq_infer_not_null_fail.c:21:40: error: array subscript ‘struct
bpf_map[0]’ is partly outside array bounds of ‘struct <anonymous>[1]’
[-Werror=array-bounds=]
21 | struct bpf_map *inner_map = map->inner_map_meta;
| ^~
progs/jeq_infer_not_null_fail.c:14:3: note: object ‘m_hash’ of size 32
14 | } m_hash SEC(".maps");
This example defines m_hash in the context of the compilation unit and
casts it to struct bpf_map which is much smaller than the size of struct
bpf_map. It errors out in GCC when it attempts to access an element that
would be defined in struct bpf_map outsize of the defined limits for
m_hash.
This patch disables the warning through a GCC pragma.
This changes were tested in bpf-next master selftests without any
regressions.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
