[PATCH 4.8 17/37] NFSv4.x: hide array-bounds warning

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

 



4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

commit d55b352b01bc78fbc3d1bb650140668b87e58bf9 upstream.

A correct bugfix introduced a harmless warning that shows up with gcc-7:

fs/nfs/callback.c: In function 'nfs_callback_up':
fs/nfs/callback.c:214:14: error: array subscript is outside array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds]

What happens here is that the 'minorversion == 0' check tells the
compiler that we assume minorversion can be something other than 0,
but when CONFIG_NFS_V4_1 is disabled that would be invalid and
result in an out-of-bounds access.

The added check for IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NFS_V4_1) tells gcc that this
really can't happen, which makes the code slightly smaller and also
avoids the warning.

The bugfix that introduced the warning is marked for stable backports,
we want this one backported to the same releases.
