This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled x86/entry: Work around Clang __bdos() bug to the 6.0-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: x86-entry-work-around-clang-__bdos-bug.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.0 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 6a2d2a27856a84f318e3b1aeead82ef1bc1c4f03 Author: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Sep 19 19:45:14 2022 -0700 x86/entry: Work around Clang __bdos() bug [ Upstream commit 3e1730842f142add55dc658929221521a9ea62b6 ] Clang produces a false positive when building with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y and CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS=y when operating on an array with a dynamic offset. Work around this by using a direct assignment of an empty instance. Avoids this warning: ../include/linux/fortify-string.h:309:4: warning: call to __write_overflow_field declared with 'warn ing' attribute: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wat tribute-warning] __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size); ^ which was isolated to the memset() call in xen_load_idt(). Note that this looks very much like another bug that was worked around: https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1592 Cc: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: x86@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: "H.
