Since 113a61863ecb ("Makefile: Enable -Wstringop-overflow globally") string overflow checking is enabled by default. Within stackdepot, the compiler (GCC 13.2.0) assumes that a multiplication overflow may be possible and flex_array_size() can return SIZE_MAX (4294967295 on 32-bit), resulting in this warning: In function 'depot_alloc_stack', inlined from 'stack_depot_save_flags' at lib/stackdepot.c:688:4: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:150:25: error: '__builtin_memcpy' specified bound 4294967295 exceeds maximum object size 2147483647 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=] 150 | #define memcpy(t, f, n) __builtin_memcpy(t, f, n) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ lib/stackdepot.c:459:9: note: in expansion of macro 'memcpy' 459 | memcpy(stack->entries, entries, flex_array_size(stack, entries, nr_entries)); | ^~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors This is due to depot_alloc_stack() accepting an 'int nr_entries' which could be negative without deeper analysis of callers. The call to depot_alloc_stack() from stack_depot_save_flags(), however, only passes in its nr_entries which is unsigned int. Fix the warning by switching depot_alloc_stack()'s nr_entries to also be unsigned.
