[PATCH 1/1] fs: proc: Fix build with GCC 15 due to -Werror=unterminated-string-initialization

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



GCC 15 enables -Werror=unterminated-string-initialization by default.
This results in the following build error/s
fs/proc/task_mmu.c:917:49: error: initializer-string for array of ‘char’ is too long [-Werror=unterminate d-string-initialization]
  917 |                 [0 ... (BITS_PER_LONG-1) + 1] = "??",
      |                                                 ^~~~

fs/proc/task_mmu.c:917:49: error: initializer-string for array of ‘char’ is too long [-Werror=unterminate d-string-initialization]
...

To fix this, the length of the second argument of arary mnemonics needs
to be 3 instead of previously set 2 (i.e. from [BITS_PER_LONG][2] to
[BITS_PER_LONG][3])
