[PATCH 00/16] ARM: mostly harmless gcc warnings

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Date: 2012-10-05 14:55:14

In my attempt to weed out all warnings in ARM defconfigs, this
is the latest installment of patches. Ideally these could all
go through the respective subsystem maintainer trees, but
for any patches I don't hear anything back on, I will just
merge them through the arm-soc tree.

	Arnd

Arnd Bergmann (16):
  ARM: warnings in arch/arm/include/asm/uaccess.h
  ARM: binfmt_flat: unused variable 'persistent'
  SCSI: ARM: ncr5380/oak uses no interrupts
  SCSI: ARM: make fas216_dumpinfo function conditional
  vfs: bogus warnings in fs/namei.c
  mm/slob: use min_t() to compare ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN
  cgroup: fix warning when building without any subsys
  ipvs: fix ip_vs_set_timeout debug messages
  USB: EHCI: mark ehci_orion_conf_mbus_windows __devinit
  clk: don't mark clkdev_add_table as init
  pcmcia: sharpsl: don't discard sharpsl_pcmcia_ops
  video: mark nuc900fb_map_video_memory as __devinit
  ARM: be really quiet when building with 'make -s'
  ARM: pxa: armcore: fix PCI PIO warnings
  spi/s3c64xx: use correct dma_transfer_direction type
  ARM: pass -marm to gcc by default for both C and assembler

[PATCH 08/16] ipvs: fix ip_vs_set_timeout debug messages

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Date: 2012-10-05 14:56:16

The ip_vs_set_timeout function sets timeouts for TCP and UDP, which
can be enabled independently at compile time. The debug message
always prints both timeouts that are passed into the function,
but if one is disabled, the message will show uninitialized data.

This splits the debug message into two separte IP_VS_DBG statements
that are in the same #ifdef section to ensure we only print the
text about what is actually going on.

Without this patch, building ARM ixp4xx_defconfig results in:

net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ctl.c: In function 'ip_vs_genl_set_cmd':

	There are many __ip_vs_get_timeouts callers but
just one calls memset(&t, 0, sizeof(t)) before that,
problem only for ip_vs_genl_set_config and ip_vs_set_timeout.

	To be safe, can we move this memset into
__ip_vs_get_timeouts instead of playing games with defines?:

	memset(t, 0, sizeof(*t));

	This debug message will be more precise in showing the
changed values if we replace the __ip_vs_get_timeouts 
call in ip_vs_genl_set_config with memset(&t, 0, sizeof(t)).
Then we will see 0 for values that are not changed/supported.

ipvs: initialize returned data in do_ip_vs_get_ctl

As reported by a gcc warning, the do_ip_vs_get_ctl does not initalize
all the members of the ip_vs_timeout_user structure it returns if
at least one of the TCP or UDP protocols is disabled for ipvs. 

This makes sure that the data is always initialized, before it is
returned as a response to IPVS_CMD_GET_CONFIG or printed as a
debug message in IPVS_CMD_SET_CONFIG.

	That is what we want. If you plan another submission
you can add empty line before this memset and to replace
the __ip_vs_get_timeouts call in ip_vs_genl_set_config with
memset but they are cosmetic changes. Or may be Simon will
take care about the coding style when applying the change.

I don't try to read too much into our defconfigs. We have 140 of them
on ARM, and they are mainly useful to give a reasonable build coverage,
but I wouldn't expect them to be actually used on that hardware.

I'll leave it up to Krzysztof to send a patch for this if he wants.

I'd prefer Simon to pick up the patch. He should also decide whether he wants
to add it to stable. In theory, this is a small leak of kernel stack data
to user space, but as you say in practice it should not happen because it
only exists for silly configurations that nobody should be using.

AFAICT, removing the call to __ip_vs_get_timeouts in do_ip_vs_get_ctl would
be a semantic change for the case where a user sends a IPVS_CMD_SET_CONFIG
message without without the complete set of attributes inside it. The current
behavior is to leave the timeouts alone, replacing the __ip_vs_get_timeouts
with a memset would zero them. I left this part alone then.

ipvs: initialize returned data in do_ip_vs_get_ctl

As reported by a gcc warning, the do_ip_vs_get_ctl does not initalize
all the members of the ip_vs_timeout_user structure it returns if
at least one of the TCP or UDP protocols is disabled for ipvs. 

This makes sure that the data is always initialized, before it is
returned as a response to IPVS_CMD_GET_CONFIG or printed as a
debug message in IPVS_CMD_SET_CONFIG.

Without this patch, building ARM ixp4xx_defconfig results in:

Hi,

sorry for being a bit slow, it was a long weekend here.
This patch looks reasonable and I think it is appropriate for stable.
I'll see about getting it merged accordingly.
