[PATCH] bcache: Silence memcpy() run-time false positive warnings

From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Jan 06 2023 - 01:02:43 EST


struct bkey has internal padding in a union, but it isn't always named
the same (e.g. key ## _pad, key_p, etc). This makes it extremely hard
for the compiler to reason about the available size of copies done
against such keys. Use unsafe_memcpy() for now, to silence the many
run-time false positive warnings:

memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 264) of single field "&i->j" at drivers/md/bcache/journal.c:152 (size 240)
memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 24) of single field "&b->key" at drivers/md/bcache/btree.c:939 (size 16)
emcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 24) of single field "&temp.key" at drivers/md/bcache/extents.c:428 (size 16)
