Subject: [PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: Check for NULL header value
Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2022 16:20:01 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220113002001.3498383-1-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)

When building with -Warray-bounds, the following warning is emitted:

In file included from ./include/linux/string.h:253,
                 from ./arch/x86/include/asm/page_32.h:22,
                 from ./arch/x86/include/asm/page.h:14,
                 from ./arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:12,
                 from ./include/linux/thread_info.h:60,
                 from ./arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h:7,

                 from ./include/linux/rculist.h:11,
                 from ./include/linux/sched/signal.h:5,
                 from ./drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/include/drv_types.h:17,
                 from drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_recv.c:7:
In function 'memcpy',
    inlined from 'wlanhdr_to_ethhdr' at drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_recv.c:1554:2:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:41:33: warning: '__builtin_memcpy' offset [0, 5] is out of the bounds [0, 0] [-Warray-bounds]
   41 | #define __underlying_memcpy     __builtin_memcpy
      |                                 ^

This is because the compiler sees it is possible for "ptr" to be a NULL
value, and concludes that it has zero size and attempts to copy to it
would overflow. Instead, detect the NULL return and error out early.
