From 34186b48d29bb961b24ece417170e74289550a13 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2021 16:53:25 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: sharpsl_param: work around -Wstringop-overread warning MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit gcc warns that accessing a pointer based on a numeric constant may be an offset into a NULL pointer, and would therefore has zero accessible bytes: arch/arm/common/sharpsl_param.c: In function ‘sharpsl_save_param’: arch/arm/common/sharpsl_param.c:43:9: error: ‘memcpy’ reading 64 bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread] 43 | memcpy(&sharpsl_param, param_start(PARAM_BASE), sizeof(struct sharpsl_param_info)); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In this particular case, the warning is bogus since this is the actual pointer, not an offset on a NULL pointer. Add a local variable to shut up the warning and hope it doesn't come back.
