From 64b2ae74e83c0294f66ab8db9c99c274fa1a5f1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2017 22:23:07 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] IB/hfi1: use size_t for passing array length gcc-7 produces a mysterious warning about the size argument being potentially out of range: drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/verbs.c: In function 'init_cntr_names': drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/verbs.c:1644:2: error: 'memcpy': specified size between 18446744071562067968 and 18446744073709551615 exceeds maximum object size 9223372036854775807 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=] This seems to refer to a the case where an 64-bit size_t gets truncated into a negative 'int' and subsequently turned into a high 64-bit number again. The fix is clearly to use size_t here, which matches the type that gets used for this value elsewhere.
