In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time field array bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid intentionally reading across neighboring array fields. Add a wrapping structure to serve as the memcpy() source, so the compiler can do appropriate bounds checking, avoiding this future warning: In function '__fortify_memcpy', inlined from 'create_uid' at drivers/s390/block/dasd_eckd.c:749:2: ./include/linux/fortify-string.h:246:4: error: call to '__read_overflow2_field' declared with attribute error: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter) Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Stefan Haberland <sth@linux.ibm.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210701142221.3408680-3-sth@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
