Avoid ubsan bug complaining about &p->field
I reckon it's quite OK to write &p->field in C when p might be NULL, and lots of old C programmers probably agree with me. However, ubsan disagrees and so do some people I respect. I suspect C++ influence is to blame for the ubsan behaviour. See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=92634. So far no one has educated me as to why I'm wrong to claim that there isn't anything in the C standard to say that p->field is always (*p).field. Note 79 doesn't quite do that because it doesn't cover null pointers. If there was such an equivalence then you could claim &p->field has a null pointer reference when p is NULL, even though no C compiler would ever dereference p. Anyway, to silence ubsan I'm going to apply the following though I prefer to avoid casts when possible. And I'm using (void *) deliberately because this is C, not C++! * ldlang.c (lang_output_section_find_by_flags): Don't use &p->field when p might be NULL. * ldelf.c (output_rel_find, ldelf_place_orphan): Likewise. (insert_os_after, lang_insert_orphan, lookup_name): Likewise. (strip_excluded_output_sections, lang_clear_os_map): Likewise. (lang_check, lang_for_each_input_file): Likewise. (lang_reset_memory_regions, find_replacements_insert_point): Likewise. (find_rescan_insertion, lang_propagate_lma_regions): Likewise. (lang_record_phdrs): Likewise. * emultempl/alphaelf.em (alpha_after_open): Likewise. * emultempl/mmo.em (mmo_place_orphan): Likewise. * emultempl/pe.em (gld_${EMULATION_NAME}_place_orphan): Likewise. * emultempl/pep.em (gld_${EMULATION_NAME}_place_orphan): Likewise. * emultempl/ppc32elf.em (ppc_after_check_relocs): Likewise. * emultempl/spuelf.em (spu_before_allocation): Likewise. (embedded_spu_file): Likewise.
