Subject: [PATCH RFT 3/3] firmware: exynos-acpm: Count acpm_xfer buffers with __counted_by_ptr
Date: Sat, 14 Feb 2026 13:39:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260214-firmare-acpm-counted-v1-3-32af5735470e@oss.qualcomm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260214-firmare-acpm-counted-v1-0-32af5735470e@oss.qualcomm.com>
Use __counted_by_ptr() attribute on the acpm_xfer buffers so UBSAN will
validate runtime that we do not pass over the buffer size, thus making
code safer.
Usage of __counted_by_ptr() (or actually __counted_by()) requires that
counter is initialized before counted array.
Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@oss.qualcomm.com>

__counted_by_ptr() actually maps to __counted_by() for clang v20.
Alternatively we could introduce new __sized_by(), already supported by
clang v20, but it is not available for GCC, AFAIU.
RFT, testing would need clang=20+ with COMNFIG_UBSAN and
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS enabled.
