x86/mm: Avoid VLA in pgd_alloc()
Arnd Bergmann reported that turning on -Wvla found a new (unintended) VLA usage: arch/x86/mm/pgtable.c: In function 'pgd_alloc': include/linux/build_bug.h:29:45: error: ISO C90 forbids variable length array 'u_pmds' [-Werror=vla] arch/x86/mm/pgtable.c:190:34: note: in expansion of macro 'static_cpu_has' #define PREALLOCATED_USER_PMDS (static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PTI) ? \ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ arch/x86/mm/pgtable.c:431:16: note: in expansion of macro 'PREALLOCATED_USER_PMDS' pmd_t *u_pmds[PREALLOCATED_USER_PMDS]; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Use the actual size of the array that is used for X86_FEATURE_PTI, which is known at build time, instead of the variable size. [ mingo: Squashed original fix with followup fix to avoid bisection breakage, wrote new changelog. ] Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Original-written-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Reported-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hpe.com> Fixes: 1be3f247c288 ("x86/mm: Avoid VLA in pgd_alloc()") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181008235434.GA35035@beast Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
