Fix the following out-of-bounds warning by enclosing
some structure members into new struct req:
arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:182:25: warning: '__builtin_memcpy' offset [39, 108] from the object at 'sig' is out of the bounds of referenced subobject 'beacon_period' with type 'short unsigned int' at offset 36 [-Warray-bounds]
Refactor the code, accordingly:
$ pahole -C wl3501_join_req drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.o
struct wl3501_join_req {
u16 next_blk; /* 0 2 */
u8 sig_id; /* 2 1 */
u8 reserved; /* 3 1 */
struct iw_mgmt_data_rset operational_rset; /* 4 10 */
u16 reserved2; /* 14 2 */
u16 timeout; /* 16 2 */
u16 probe_delay; /* 18 2 */
u8 timestamp[8]; /* 20 8 */
u8 local_time[8]; /* 28 8 */
struct {
u16 beacon_period; /* 36 2 */
u16 dtim_period; /* 38 2 */
u16 cap_info; /* 40 2 */
u8 bss_type; /* 42 1 */
u8 bssid[6]; /* 43 6 */
struct iw_mgmt_essid_pset ssid; /* 49 34 */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 19 bytes ago --- */
struct iw_mgmt_ds_pset ds_pset; /* 83 3 */
struct iw_mgmt_cf_pset cf_pset; /* 86 8 */
struct iw_mgmt_ibss_pset ibss_pset; /* 94 4 */
struct iw_mgmt_data_rset bss_basic_rset; /* 98 10 */
} req; /* 36 72 */
/* size: 108, cachelines: 2, members: 10 */
/* last cacheline: 44 bytes */
};
The problem is that the original code is trying to copy data into a
bunch of struct members adjacent to each other in a single call to
memcpy(). Now that a new struct _req_ enclosing all those adjacent
members is introduced, memcpy() doesn't overrun the length of
&sig.beacon_period, because the address of the new struct object
_req_ is used as the destination, instead.
Also, this helps with the ongoing efforts to enable -Warray-bounds and
avoid confusing the compiler.
