[PATCH 31/82] ARC: dw2 unwind: Refactor intentional wrap-around calculation

From: Kees Cook
Date: Mon Jan 22 2024 - 20:29:28 EST


In an effort to separate intentional arithmetic wrap-around from
unexpected wrap-around, we need to refactor places that depend on this
kind of math. One of the most common code patterns of this is:

VAR + value < VAR

Notably, this is considered "undefined behavior" for signed and pointer
types, which the kernel works around by using the -fno-strict-overflow
option in the build[1] (which used to just be -fwrapv). Regardless, we
want to get the kernel source to the position where we can meaningfully
instrument arithmetic wrap-around conditions and catch them when they
are unexpected, regardless of whether they are signed[2], unsigned[3],
or pointer[4] types.

Refactor open-coded pointer wrap-around addition test to use
check_add_overflow(), retaining the result for later usage (which
removes the redundant open-coded addition). This paves the way to enabling
the unsigned wrap-around sanitizer[2] in the future.
