[PATCH v2] iio: gts-helper: add __counted_by_ptr to struct iio_gts
Posted by Bill Wendling 17 hours ago
The compiler attribute __counted_by_ptr can be used by KASAN and UBSAN
to detect out-of-bounds accesses to pointer fields in structs where a
corresponding element count field is available.

In "struct iio_gts", there are multiple pointer fields associated with
an element count. This patch annotates these pointer fields with
"__counted_by_ptr" to improve runtime safety:

- 'hwgain_table': counted by 'num_hwgain'
- 'itime_table': counted by 'num_itime'
- 'per_time_avail_scale_tables': counted by 'num_itime'
- 'avail_all_scales_table': counted by 'num_avail_all_scales'
- 'avail_time_tables': counted by 'num_avail_time_tables'

To ensure that the count is set correctly before any pointer is
accessed or assigned, we update "iio_init_iio_gts()" to set the counts
prior to assigning the pointers.

v2: Remove reordering of assignments. It's not necessary as an assignment of
    the pointer isn't an access that's checked by KASAN.
