[PATCH 5.18 06/11] x86/boot: Wrap literal addresses in absolute_pointer()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Jun 23 2022 - 14:24:58 EST


From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit aeb84412037b89e06f45e382f044da6f200e12f8 upstream.

GCC 11 (incorrectly[1]) assumes that literal values cast to (void *)
should be treated like a NULL pointer with an offset, and raises
diagnostics when doing bounds checking under -Warray-bounds. GCC 12
got "smarter" about finding these:

In function 'rdfs8',
inlined from 'vga_recalc_vertical' at /srv/code/arch/x86/boot/video-mode.c:124:29,
inlined from 'set_mode' at /srv/code/arch/x86/boot/video-mode.c:163:3:
/srv/code/arch/x86/boot/boot.h:114:9: warning: array subscript 0 is outside array bounds of 'u8[0]' {aka 'unsigned char[]'} [-Warray-bounds]
114 | asm volatile("movb %%fs:%1,%0" : "=q" (v) : "m" (*(u8 *)addr));
| ^~~

This has been solved in other places[2] already by using the recently
added absolute_pointer() macro. Do the same here.
