No, the link fails because the compiler still emits some references to
strlen().

Despite -ffreestanding?!?

*Because* of -ffreestanding.  Without that, strlen would be recognized
and turned into __builtin_strlen.

Now I'm confused: if we have a static inline or #define for strlen(),

Do you?

I don't, but Finn's patch has, IINM.


You're mixing up two separate patches there. One uses a #define and the 
other uses a forced inline function. We were discussing the former patch 
when I answered your question about __HAVE_ARCH_STRLEN (which got 
snipped).

m68k doesn't define __HAVE_ARCH_STRLEN and relies on the strlen() 
implementation in lib/string.c. The former patch doesn't alter this but 
reduces the number of callers because some call sites get optimized away. 
That's how it avoids the warning you raised.

Anyway, I don't like pre-processor kludges. So I did another experiment 
with the latter (forced inline) approach, to see if some optimizations can 
still be used with -ffreestanding.

The result of this patch really is confusing. It still suppresses the 
warning you raised:

arch/m68k/include/asm/string.h:72:25: warning: '__builtin_memcpy' forming
offset 8 is out of the bounds [0, 7] [-Warray-bounds]
    #define memcpy(d, s, n) __builtin_memcpy(d, s, n)
                            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   include/linux/string.h:456:3: note: in expansion of macro 'memcpy'
      memcpy(dest, src, dest_len);
      ^~~~~~

But it also causes new ones, because of __builtin_memset():

drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcvt.c: In function 'fb_find_mode_cvt':
drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcvt.c:312:16: warning: 'cvt.flags' may be used uninit                                                                     ialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
      cvt.flags |= FB_CVT_FLAG_MARGINS;
                ^~

Apparently the compiler doesn't understand that __builtin_memset() has 
the effect of initialization. Weird.
