-Subject: [PATCH 14/14] ARM: mvebu: declare asm symbols as character arrays in
- pmsu.c
-
-With CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE, memcpy uses the declared size of operands to
-detect buffer overflows. If src or dest is declared as a char, attempts to
-copy more than byte will result in a fortify_panic().
-
-Address this problem in mvebu_setup_boot_addr_wa() by declaring
-mvebu_boot_wa_start and mvebu_boot_wa_end as character arrays. Also remove
-a couple addressof operators to avoid "arithmetic on pointer to an
-incomplete type" compiler error.
-
-See commit 54a7d50b9205 ("x86: mark kprobe templates as character arrays,
-not single characters") for a similar fix.
-
-Fixes "detected buffer overflow in memcpy" error during init on some mvebu
-systems (armada-370-xp, armada-375):
-
-(fortify_panic) from (mvebu_setup_boot_addr_wa+0xb0/0xb4)
-(mvebu_setup_boot_addr_wa) from (mvebu_v7_cpu_pm_init+0x154/0x204)
-(mvebu_v7_cpu_pm_init) from (do_one_initcall+0x7c/0x1a8)
-(do_one_initcall) from (kernel_init_freeable+0x1bc/0x254)
-(kernel_init_freeable) from (kernel_init+0x8/0x114)
-(kernel_init) from (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x2c)
