GCC has expanded support of the "nonstring" attribute so that it can be applied to arrays of character arrays[1], which is needed to identify correct static initialization of those kinds of objects. Since this was not supported prior to GCC 15, we need to distinguish the usage of Linux's existing __nonstring macro for the attribute for non-multi-dimensional char arrays. Until GCC 15 is the minimum version, use __nonstring_array to mark arrays of non-string character arrays. (Regular non-string character arrays can continue to use __nonstring.) This allows for changes like this: -static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __initconst = { +static const char table_sigs[][ACPI_NAMESEG_SIZE] __nonstring_array __initconst = { ACPI_SIG_BERT, ACPI_SIG_BGRT, ACPI_SIG_CPEP, ACPI_SIG_ECDT, Which will silence the coming -Wunterminated-string-initialization warnings in GCC 15: In file included from ../include/acpi/actbl.h:371, from ../include/acpi/acpi.h:26, from ../include/linux/acpi.h:26, from ../drivers/acpi/tables.c:19: ../include/acpi/actbl1.h:30:33: warning: initializer-string for array of 'char' truncates NUL terminator but destination lacks 'nonstring' attribute (5 chars into 4 available) [-Wunterminated-string-initialization] 30 | #define ACPI_SIG_BERT "BERT" /* Boot Error Record Table */ | ^~~~~~ ../drivers/acpi/tables.c:400:9: note: in expansion of macro 'ACPI_SIG_BERT' 400 | ACPI_SIG_BERT, ACPI_SIG_BGRT, ACPI_SIG_CPEP, ACPI_SIG_ECDT, | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../include/acpi/actbl1.h:31:33: warning: initializer-string for array of 'char' truncates NUL terminator but destination lacks 'nonstring' attribute (5 chars into 4 available) [-Wunterminated-string-initialization] 31 | #define ACPI_SIG_BGRT "BGRT" /* Boot Graphics Resource Table */ | ^~~~~~ Link: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=117178 [1] Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org> --- Cc: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: "Rafael J.
