Hmm. Since this pull didn't fix the gcc note about playing pointer
games that I get for my allmodconfig test build, and since I _really_
don't want to have an rc1 release tomorrow with that (valid) warning,
I fixed it up myself.

I fixed up the gcc note the cleanest way I could, by using a union to
make it very explicit that yes, we're basically doing a bit-for-bit
assignment from one incompatible type to another.

I would *not* encourage this pattern in general, but it had a comment
about why that invalid pointer conversion was fine in this case, and
it really does seem to be a fairly natural use of a union. This
situation really is that kind of "don't convert types, just copy the
bit representation".

So it's kind of conceptually quite similar to the traditional "use a
union to convert floating point bit representations to integers" and
back (as opposed to using a cast to convert a pointer in order to then
_use_ it as a pointer in the new form).

See

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=e77d587a2c04e82c6a0dffa4a32c874a4029385d

for details.

At least gcc generated identical code (well, for an unholy version of
that patch that had been edited to avoid line number changes) for me,
so that "go through a union type" doesn't cause any other differences
than getting rid of the gcc note.

(And this was definitely one of the cases where I felt that the gcc
note was entirely valid, and a good warning - even if it wasn't
technically a warnign that would cause -Werror to trigger. So I didn't
want to shut up the note by turning it off, I really wanted the code
to be more clear about what it does).

Ah. Ying did it this way:

Subject: migrate_pages: silence gcc notes for mis-casting
Date: Thu, 2 Mar 2023 09:26:10 +0800

The following GCC notes was reported for commit 64c8902ed441
("migrate_pages: split unmap_and_move() to _unmap() and _move()").

mm/migrate.c: In function `__migrate_folio_extract':
mm/migrate.c:1050:20: note: randstruct: casting between randomized
structure pointer types (ssa): `struct anon_vma' and `struct
address_space'

1050 | *anon_vmap = (void *)dst->mapping;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The casting itself is safe. Because we only use dst->mapping to store the
pointer itself temporarily and dst is a newly allocated folio and not used
by anyone else during that. But the notes should be silenced and some
comments are deserved. So, we do that in this patch.

Yeah, I saw that patch flying past, but I actually think that it only
silences the warning almost by mistake. There's nothing fundamental in
there that a compiler wouldn't just follow across two assignments, and
it just happens to now not trigger any more.

Assigning to a union entry is a more fundamental operation in that
respect. Not that the compiler still doesn't see that it's assigning a
value that in the end is not really type compatible, so a different
version of gcc could still warn, but at that point I feel like it's
more of an actual compiler bug than just "oh, the compiler didn't
happen to follow the cast through a temporary".

Yes. Your fix is much better. This can be used for
__page_set_anon_rmap() family too to make the code look better?

Those are trickier due to the PAGE_MAPPING_ANON tagging bit which your
code doesn't need to handle because you can simply store an untagged
anon_vma pointer. Otherwise we could have the union at the struct page
level already (but probably not at this point as IIRC Matthew is
planning to have completely separate types for anon and file folios).

So right now we have e.g. folio_get_anon_vma() using unsigned long as
the intermediate variable, page_move_anon_rmap() using a void *
variable, __page_set_anon_rmap() casting through a (void *) ... Is there
a single recommended way for "tagged pointers" that we could unify that to?

Ah, you are right. We need to deal with tagging bit and maybe struct
movable_operations *. I tried to write the below debug patch (only
build test it). The code adds 1 or 2 lines for each function. But to
be honest, the original force casting method appears more natural to me.

Huang, Ying
