[PATCH 1/2][next] wl3501_cs: Fix out-of-bounds warning in wl3501_send_pkt

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Wed Mar 31 2021 - 18:16:19 EST


Fix the following out-of-bounds warning by enclosing
structure members daddr and saddr into new struct addr:

arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:182:25: warning: '__builtin_memcpy' offset [18, 23] from the object at 'sig' is out of the bounds of referenced subobject 'daddr' with type 'u8[6]' {aka 'unsigned char[6]'} at offset 11 [-Warray-bounds]

Refactor the code, accordingly:

$ pahole -C wl3501_md_req drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.o
struct wl3501_md_req {
u16 next_blk; /* 0 2 */
u8 sig_id; /* 2 1 */
u8 routing; /* 3 1 */
u16 data; /* 4 2 */
u16 size; /* 6 2 */
u8 pri; /* 8 1 */
u8 service_class; /* 9 1 */
struct {
u8 daddr[6]; /* 10 6 */
u8 saddr[6]; /* 16 6 */
} addr; /* 10 12 */

/* size: 22, cachelines: 1, members: 8 */
/* last cacheline: 22 bytes */
};

The problem is that the original code is trying to copy data into a
couple of arrays adjacent to each other in a single call to memcpy().
Now that a new struct _addr_ enclosing those two adjacent arrays
is introduced, memcpy() doesn't overrun the length of &sig.addr,
because the address of the new struct object _addr_ is used as
destination, instead.

Also, this helps with the ongoing efforts to enable -Warray-bounds and
avoid confusing the compiler.
