Re: [GIT PULL] xen: bug fixes for 4.7-rc0

[Linus Torvalds]

Having upgraded one of my machines to F24, I get a few new warnings
during the kernel compile due to a new compiler.

Some of them are just annoying and wrong, but one of them points to a
real Xen bug:

  arch/x86/xen/mmu.c:1116:57: warning: array subscript is above array
bounds [-Warray-bounds]
    for (; vaddr <= vaddr_end && (pmd < (level2_kernel_pgt + PAGE_SIZE));
                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

because that is definitely completely wrong.

Yes, level2_kernel_pgt is one page in size, but it only has 512
entries, because each entry is 8 bytes.

So that "+ PAGE_SIZE" is entirely bogus. Either it should be

  (level2_kernel_pgt + 512)

or it should be

  ((void *)level2_kernel_pgt + PAGE_SIZE)

but as it stands now it's a bug.

This harkens back to 2012, commit 7f9140626c757 ("xen/mmu: Copy and
revector the P2M tree").

It may be that we end up never actually crossing the pmd boundary
anyway due to vaddr limit - I didn't check. But please fix the code
regardless.
