The quilt patch titled Subject: kasan/test: avoid gcc warning for intentional overflow has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kasan-test-avoid-gcc-warning-for-intentional-overflow.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
------------------------------------------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann arnd@arndb.de Subject: kasan/test: avoid gcc warning for intentional overflow Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2024 12:15:52 +0100
The out-of-bounds test allocates an object that is three bytes too short in order to validate the bounds checking. Starting with gcc-14, this causes a compile-time warning as gcc has grown smart enough to understand the sizeof() logic:
mm/kasan/kasan_test.c: In function 'kmalloc_oob_16': mm/kasan/kasan_test.c:443:14: error: allocation of insufficient size '13' for type 'struct <anonymous>' with size '16' [-Werror=alloc-size] 443 | ptr1 = kmalloc(sizeof(*ptr1) - 3, GFP_KERNEL); | ^
Hide the actual computation behind a RELOC_HIDE() that ensures the compiler misses the intentional bug.
