Starting with Clang-7.0, _THIS_IP_ generates -Wreturn-stack-address warnings for almost every translation unit. In general, I'd prefer to leave this on (returning the address of a stack allocated variable is in general a bad idea) and disable it only at whitelisted call sites.
We can't do something like: #pragma clang diagnostic push #pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wreturn-stack-address"
<code> #pragma clang diagnostic pop
in a GNU Statement Expression or macro, hence we use _Pragma, which is its raison d'être: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Pragmas.html

This generates a ton of warnings with GCC:

Ah, good catch. I thought I had tested locally with gcc-8, but it seems that it was likely only godbolt. I do see the errors locally when building with gcc-8.
A proper solution is probably going to involve what was done for the -Wattribute-alias warnings from GCC 8 in commits 8793bb7f4a9d ("kbuild: add macro for controlling warnings to linux/compiler.h") and bee20031772a ("disable -Wattribute-alias warning for SYSCALL_DEFINEx()")
I'll take a look at it in a bit unless someone beats me to it.
I'll fix this up, triple check with gcc-8, and attribute you in the Suggested-by tag. Thank you for verifying. -- Thanks, ~Nick Desaulniers
I forgot to mention there is a similar macro that will need this same fix in arch/arm64/include/asm/processor.h (current_text_addr), if you want to tackle it in v2. Do CC me on the next series so that I can test, thank you for doing this!
!!!
$ grep -R current_text_addr
shows many definitions of current_text_addr per arch/ that are all essentially the same, and very very few uses of it. I prefer to consolidate current_text_addr() in a follow up series, since a common definition with per-arch overrides will have to get a lot of sign offs.
Though, for arm64, a simple: -#define current_text_addr() ({ __label__ _l; _l: &&_l;}) +#define current_text_addr() _THIS_IP_
does the trick, it would be better to have a single shared definition.
