netfilter: ctnetlink: compile ctnetlink_label_size with CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_EVENTS
[ Upstream commit e1f1ee0e9ad8cbe660f5c104e791c5f1a7cf4c31 ]
Only provide ctnetlink_label_size when it is used,
which is when CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_EVENTS is configured.
Flagged by clang-18 W=1 builds as:
.../nf_conntrack_netlink.c:385:19: warning: unused function 'ctnetlink_label_size' [-Wunused-function]
385 | static inline int ctnetlink_label_size(const struct nf_conn *ct)
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The condition on CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_LABELS being removed by
this patch guards compilation of non-trivial implementations
of ctnetlink_dump_labels() and ctnetlink_label_size().
However, this is not necessary as each of these functions
will always return 0 if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_LABELS is not defined
as each function starts with the equivalent of:
struct nf_conn_labels *labels = nf_ct_labels_find(ct);
if (!labels)
return 0;
And nf_ct_labels_find always returns NULL if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_LABELS
is not enabled. So I believe that the compiler optimises the code away
in such cases anyway.
Found by inspection.
Compile tested only.
