Different definitions of __must_be_array: * gcc: disabled for __CHECKER__ * clang: same definition as gcc's, but without __CHECKER__ * intel: the comment claims __builtin_types_compatible_p() is unsupported; but icc seems to support it since 13.0.1 (released in 2012). See https://godbolt.org/z/S0l6QQ Therefore, we can remove all of them and have a single definition in compiler.h Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Luc Van Oostenryck <luc.vanoostenryck@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Eli Friedman <efriedma@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Christopher Li <sparse@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dominique Martinet <asmadeus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: linux-sparse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <miguel.ojeda.sandonis@xxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/compiler-clang.h | 1 - include/linux/compiler-gcc.h | 7 ------- include/linux/compiler-intel.h | 3 --- include/linux/compiler.h | 7 +++++++ 4 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/compiler-clang.h b/include/linux/compiler-clang.h index d11cad61ba5c..fa9532f8d885 100644 --- a/include/linux/compiler-clang.h +++ b/include/linux/compiler-clang.h @@ -41,6 +41,5 @@ * compilers, like ICC. */ #define barrier() __asm__ __volatile__("" : : : "memory") -#define __must_be_array(a) BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO(__same_type((a), &(a)[0])) #define __assume_aligned(a, ...) \ __attribute__((__assume_aligned__(a, ## __VA_ARGS__))) diff --git a/include/linux/compiler-gcc.h b/include/linux/compiler-gcc.h index 371b6fa2d074..76f4907ef707 100644 --- a/include/linux/compiler-gcc.h +++ b/include/linux/compiler-gcc.h @@ -68,13 +68,6 @@ */ #define uninitialized_var(x) x = x -#ifdef __CHECKER__ -#define __must_be_array(a) 0 -#else -/* &a[0] degrades to a pointer: a different type from an array */ -#define __must_be_array(a) BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO(__same_type((a), &(a)[0])) -#endif - #ifdef RETPOLINE #define __noretpoline __attribute__((__indirect_branch__("keep"))) #endif diff --git a/include/linux/compiler-intel.h b/include/linux/compiler-intel.h index fef8bb3e53ef..6004b4588bd4 100644 --- a/include/linux/compiler-intel.h +++ b/include/linux/compiler-intel.h @@ -29,9 +29,6 @@ */ #define OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR(var) barrier() -/* Intel ECC compiler doesn't support __builtin_types_compatible_p() */ -#define __must_be_array(a) 0 - #endif /* icc has this, but it's called _bswap16 */ diff --git a/include/linux/compiler.h b/include/linux/compiler.h index ec4a28bad2c6..165b1d5683ed 100644 --- a/include/linux/compiler.h +++ b/include/linux/compiler.h @@ -357,4 +357,11 @@ static inline void *offset_to_ptr(const int *off) compiletime_assert(__native_word(t), \ "Need native word sized stores/loads for atomicity.") +#ifdef __CHECKER__ +#define __must_be_array(a) 0 +#else +/* &a[0] degrades to a pointer: a different type from an array */ +#define __must_be_array(a) BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO(__same_type((a), &(a)[0])) +#endif + #endif /* __LINUX_COMPILER_H */ -- 2.17.1
