[PATCH 6.10 151/634] x86/boot/64: Strip percpu address space when setting up GDT descriptors

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

 



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

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

From: Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit b51207dc02ec3aeaa849e419f79055d7334845b6 ]

init_per_cpu_var() returns a pointer in the percpu address space while
rip_rel_ptr() expects a pointer in the generic address space.

When strict address space checks are enabled, GCC's named address space
checks fail:

  asm.h:124:63: error: passing argument 1 of 'rip_rel_ptr' from
                       pointer to non-enclosed address space

Add a explicit cast to remove address space of the returned pointer.

Fixes: 11e36b0f7c21 ("x86/boot/64: Load the final kernel GDT during early boot directly, remove startup_gdt[]")
