[PATCH] string.h: work around __builtin_constant_p quirk

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Mon Aug 07 2017 - 07:16:34 EST


The compile-time check in the hardened memcpy() triggered a build
error in code that should not have:

In function 'memcpy',
inlined from '__adfs_dir_put' at fs/adfs/dir_f.c:318:2,
inlined from 'adfs_f_update' at fs/adfs/dir_f.c:403:2:
include/linux/string.h:305:4: error: call to '__read_overflow2' declared with attribute error: detected read beyond size of object passed as 2nd parameter
__read_overflow2();
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My understanding is that in the __adfs_dir_put() function, the gcc
uses a specialization for the common 'thissize = 26', which due to
jump threading leads to a case where it has shown that 'thissize'
can be constant, but at the same time another case exists where
it may have a negative value (for sb->s_blocksize=0) that could lead
to overflowing the local 'adfs_direntry de' variable.

The bug was hidden before patch "fortify: use WARN instead of BUG
for now", which apparently dropped the compile-time checks due to
the following code being marked as '__unreachable'.

This reworks the hardened string functions to avoid some branches,
and introduces a macro for checking whether the argument is a
compile-time constant.

Fixes: mmotm ("fortify: use WARN instead of BUG for now")
Fixes: 6974f0c4555e ("include/linux/string.h: add the option of fortified string.h functions")
