[PATCH] net/tls: fix const assignment warning
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Wed Apr 08 2020 - 14:55:21 EST
Building with some experimental patches, I came across a warning
in the tls code:
include/linux/compiler.h:215:30: warning: assignment discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
215 | *(volatile typeof(x) *)&(x) = (val); \
| ^
net/tls/tls_main.c:650:4: note: in expansion of macro 'smp_store_release'
650 | smp_store_release(&saved_tcpv4_prot, prot);
This appears to be a legitimate warning about assigning a const pointer
into the non-const 'saved_tcpv4_prot' global. Annotate both the ipv4 and
ipv6 pointers 'const' to make the code internally consistent.
Fixes: 5bb4c45d466c ("net/tls: Read sk_prot once when building tls proto ops")
