Subject: [PATCH RFC 0/6] LLVMLinux: Patches to enable the kernel to be compiled with clang/LLVM

From: Behan Webster <[email protected]>

These patches remove the use of Variable Length Arrays In Structs (VLAIS) in
crypto related code. Presented here for comments as a whole (since they all do
the same thing in the same way). Once everyone is happy I will submit them
individually to their appropriate maintainers.

The LLVMLinux project aims to fully build the Linux kernel using both gcc and
clang (the C front end for the LLVM compiler infrastructure project).

Subject: [PATCH RFC 4/6] crypto: LLVMLinux: Remove VLAIS usage from crypto/testmgr.c

From: Jan-Simon Möller <[email protected]>

The use of variable length arrays in structs (VLAIS) in the Linux Kernel code
precludes the use of compilers which don't implement VLAIS (for instance the
Clang compiler). This patch instead allocates the appropriate amount of memory
using an char array.

struct shash_desc contains a flexible array member member ctx declared with
CRYPTO_MINALIGN_ATTR, so sizeof(struct shash_desc) aligns the beginning
of the array declared after struct shash_desc with long long.

No trailing padding is required because it is not a struct type that can
be used in an array.

The CRYPTO_MINALIGN_ATTR is required so that desc is aligned with long long
as would be the case for a struct containing a member with
CRYPTO_MINALIGN_ATTR.

are you sure these are all of them? I know for a fact that we are using the same construct in net/bluetooth/amp.c as well.

There have been other places where this was an issue before too (ext4,
mac80211, USB gadget, ...). Some have already been fixed.

Hmm. Yeah, I thought we had a patch for bluetooth too. I can't find it
now though.

Suffice it to say that similar patches are required for the other
instances of this kind of code elsewhere as well.

Thanks Marcel,

Behan

I'm fine with this, do you want me to pull it into my tree for our next push
or do you want this all to go together as a set?

I'm more than happy for individual maintainers to pull relevant patches

They were presented as a RFC patch set purely to get consensus as a
group since its the same change across the board.

Happy to push your patch to you now.
