Kees Cook 86cffecdea Compiler Attributes: add __alloc_size() for better bounds checking
GCC and Clang can use the "alloc_size" attribute to better inform the
results of __builtin_object_size() (for compile-time constant values).
Clang can additionally use alloc_size to inform the results of
__builtin_dynamic_object_size() (for run-time values).

Because GCC sees the frequent use of struct_size() as an allocator size
argument, and notices it can return SIZE_MAX (the overflow indication),
it complains about these call sites overflowing (since SIZE_MAX is
greater than the default -Walloc-size-larger-than=PTRDIFF_MAX).  This
isn't helpful since we already know a SIZE_MAX will be caught at
run-time (this was an intentional design).  To deal with this, we must
disable this check as it is both a false positive and redundant.  (Clang
does not have this warning option.)

Unfortunately, just checking the -Wno-alloc-size-larger-than is not
sufficient to make the __alloc_size attribute behave correctly under
older GCC versions.  The attribute itself must be disabled in those
situations too, as there appears to be no way to reliably silence the
SIZE_MAX constant expression cases for GCC versions less than 9.1:

   In file included from ./include/linux/resource_ext.h:11,
                    from ./include/linux/pci.h:40,
                    from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe.h:9,
                    from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_lib.c:4:
   In function 'kmalloc_node',
       inlined from 'ixgbe_alloc_q_vector' at ./include/linux/slab.h:743:9:
   ./include/linux/slab.h:618:9: error: argument 1 value '18446744073709551615' exceeds maximum object size 9223372036854775807 [-Werror=alloc-size-larger-than=]
     return __kmalloc_node(size, flags, node);
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   ./include/linux/slab.h: In function 'ixgbe_alloc_q_vector':
   ./include/linux/slab.h:455:7: note: in a call to allocation function '__kmalloc_node' declared here
    void *__kmalloc_node(size_t size, gfp_t flags, int node) __assume_slab_alignment __malloc;
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Specifically:
 '-Wno-alloc-size-larger-than' is not correctly handled by GCC < 9.1
    https://godbolt.org/z/hqsfG7q84 (doesn't disable)
    https://godbolt.org/z/P9jdrPTYh (doesn't admit to not knowing about option)
    https://godbolt.org/z/465TPMWKb (only warns when other warnings appear)

 '-Walloc-size-larger-than=18446744073709551615' is not handled by GCC < 8.2
    https://godbolt.org/z/73hh1EPxz (ignores numeric value)

Since anything marked with __alloc_size would also qualify for marking
with __malloc, just include __malloc along with it to avoid redundant
markings.  (Suggested by Linus Torvalds.)

Finally, make sure checkpatch.pl doesn't get confused about finding the
__alloc_size attribute on functions.  (Thanks to Joe Perches.)
