Subject: [PATCH 4/5] uaccess: Disable -Wshadow in __scoped_user_access()
Date: Sat, 20 Dec 2025 21:56:07 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251220215608.434614-5-david.laight.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251220215608.434614-1-david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
From: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
-Wshadow is enabled by W=2 builds and __scoped_user_access() quite
deliberately creates a 'const' shadow of the 'user' address that
references a 'guard page' when the application passes a kernel pointer.
