Fork of reMarkable kernel https://github.com/reMarkable/linux

gcc-8 has a new warning that detects overlapping input and output arguments in memcpy(). It triggers for sit_init_net() calling ipip6_tunnel_clone_6rd(), which is actually correct: net/ipv6/sit.c: In function 'sit_init_net': net/ipv6/sit.c:192:3: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict] The problem here is that the logic detecting the memcpy() arguments finds them to be the same, but the conditional that tests for the input and output of ipip6_tunnel_clone_6rd() to be identical is not a compile-time constant. We know that netdev_priv(t->dev) is the same as t for a tunnel device, and comparing "dev" directly here lets the compiler figure out as well that 'dev == sitn->fb_tunnel_dev' when called from sit_init_net(), so it no longer warns. This code is old, so Cc stable to make sure that we don't get the warning for older kernels built with new gcc.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
