GCC 12 appears to perform constant propagation incompletely(?) and can
no longer notice that "len" is always 0 when "data" is NULL. Expand the
check to avoid warnings about memcpy() having a NULL argument:

It's basically a bug in the C standard. Note that the kernel already uses options that make other types of undefined behavior defined: -fno-strict-overflow, -fno-strict-aliasing, and -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks. - Eric

It's basically a bug in the C standard. It's not undefined -- it's just pedantic. __builtin_memcpy is defined internally to GCC with __attribute__((nonnull (1, 2))), and since it can find a path from an always-NULL argument, it warns. I think it's a dumb limitation, given that "zero size to/from NULL" is perfectly valid. -- Kees Cook

Which is presumably the reason for the nonnull annotation. Anyway, it is silly, which is why I'd hope that someone would have added an option to disable this C standard bug by now... - Eric

This makes no sense. The if clause was added to silence sparse.
That then in turn caused gcc to barf. However, sparse has since
been fixed so that it doesn't warn without the if clause.
The solution is not to keep adding crap to the if clause, but to
get rid of it once and for all.
Thanks,

It's _GCC_, not sparse, that is enforcing the nonnull argument
attribute.

Getting rid of the if doesn't solve the warning. I can switch it to just
"if (data)", though. That keeps GCC happy.

OK I misread the thread.
Anyhow, it appears that this warning only occurs due to a debug
printk in caam. So how about something like this?

What? I don't think that's true? I think
CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_FSL_CAAM_DEBUG only controls "PRINT_POS", which is
unrelated?
The call path is:
drivers/crypto/caam/key_gen.c: gen_split_key()
append_fifo_load_as_imm(..., NULL, ...) <- literal NULL
append_cmd_data(..., data, ...)
memcpy(..., data, ...)
and doesn't seem affected at all by CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_FSL_CAAM_DEBUG.

Without the PRINT_POS or DEBUG enabled I can't reproduce this on arm. Can you reproduce this without it? If so please send me your Kconfig file and compiler version.
