[PATCH v2] parisc/kernel/ftrace: Remove function callback casts

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

 



In an effort to enable -Wcast-function-type in the top-level Makefile to
support Control Flow Integrity builds, remove all the function callback
casts.

To do this add an inline function helper to get the address of a
function. This helper uses the "dereference_function_descriptor" as the
parisc64 architecture uses function descriptors instead of direct
addresses for functions.

Then, remove the cast to a function pointer type in the comparison
statement and use the function helper to get the address of every
function in the right and left operand. This can be done since the
comparison is against function address (these operands are not function
calls).

Hi,

I have added the Co-develop-by tag and Signed-off-by tag to give credit to
Helge Deller if there are no objections.

Thanks.

Changelog v1->v2
- Use the function "dereference_function_descriptor" to get the function
  address instead of a direct cast to unsigned long type.
- Modify the commit changelog accordingly.
- Add the Co-developed-by tag and Signed-off-by tag to give credit to Helge
  Deller.
