Subject: [PATCH v2] lib: zstd: Fix -Wstringop-overflow warning

Fix the following -Wstringop-overflow warning when building with GCC 11+:

lib/zstd/decompress/huf_decompress.c: In function ‘HUF_readDTableX2_wksp’:
lib/zstd/decompress/huf_decompress.c:700:5: warning: ‘HUF_fillDTableX2.constprop’ accessing 624 bytes in a region of size 52 [-Wstringop-overflow=]

by using pointer notation instead of array notation.

This is one of the last remaining warnings to be fixed before globally
enabling -Wstringop-overflow.

The patch looks correct to me, thanks for reviving it. But, I was attempting to reproduce the issue,
so I could better understand what's going on, and I wasn't able to reproduce it myself.

To attempt to reproduce, I applied this patch

---
diff --git a/lib/zstd/Makefile b/lib/zstd/Makefile
index 20f08c644b71..190d3d5ab4be 100644
--- a/lib/zstd/Makefile
+++ b/lib/zstd/Makefile
@@ -12,6 +12,8 @@ obj-$(CONFIG_ZSTD_COMPRESS) += zstd_compress.o
obj-$(CONFIG_ZSTD_DECOMPRESS) += zstd_decompress.o
obj-$(CONFIG_ZSTD_COMMON) += zstd_common.o

+ccflags-y := -Wstringop-overflow=4 -Werror
+
zstd_compress-y := \
zstd_compress_module.o \
compress/fse_compress.o \
---

Then compiled on x86-64 with gcc 12.2.0 on tag v6.2-rc3. I saw no errors.
I also tried with just `-Wstringop-overflow`, and on upstream zstd. I tried to
make a minimal reproducer on godbolt, so I could see if it was the gcc version,
but wasn't able to make it fail with any of them https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/Exzq9arMr.

Could you please tell me how to reproduce this warning?

Best,
Nick Terrell

I saw it like so with next-20230113 on x86_64:

$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 12.2.0-3ubuntu1) 12.2.0
...
$ make KCFLAGS=-Wstringop-overflow allmodconfig lib/zstd/decompress/huf_decompress.o

Thanks, I was able to repro it! I will merge this patch into my tree.

If you would like to submit the same patch upstream yourself, I will accept the PR, otherwise I can submit an upstream PR.

Just to be certain, this patch is to work around a shortcoming in -Wstringop-overflow, but the code was otherwise correct?

Thanks!

I don't know the process there, so if you could do it, I'd appreciate
it.

It's the same result for the binary output. The types indicated in the
function prototype meant there was cross-struct-member overflow (i.e.
writing to the second array dimension when only 1 was specified), but
the way to clear up intention isn't as clean here, so I'd kind of say
half a code correctness issue, and half a work-around. *makes wavey
hands gesture*
