+Subject: kbuild: Disable -Wdefault-const-init-unsafe
+
+From: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>
+
+commit d0afcfeb9e3810ec89d1ffde1a0e36621bb75dca upstream.
+
+A new on by default warning in clang [1] aims to flags instances where
+const variables without static or thread local storage or const members
+in aggregate types are not initialized because it can lead to an
+indeterminate value. This is quite noisy for the kernel due to
+instances originating from header files such as:
+
+ drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gt/intel_ring.h:62:2: error: default initialization of an object of type 'typeof (ring->size)' (aka 'const unsigned int') leaves the object uninitialized [-Werror,-Wdefault-const-init-var-unsafe]

+ 409 | struct list_head *next = smp_load_acquire(&head->next);
+ | ^

+ 164 | union { __unqual_scalar_typeof(*p) __val; char __c[1]; } __u; \
+ | ^
+ include/linux/list.h:409:27: note: member '__val' declared 'const' here
+
+ crypto/scatterwalk.c:66:22: error: default initialization of an object of type 'struct scatter_walk' with const member leaves the object uninitialized [-Werror,-Wdefault-const-init-field-unsafe]
+ 66 | struct scatter_walk walk;
+ | ^
+ include/crypto/algapi.h:112:15: note: member 'addr' declared 'const' here
+ 112 | void *const addr;
+ | ^
+
+ fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c:733:24: error: default initialization of an object of type 'struct vm_area_struct' with const member leaves the object uninitialized [-Werror,-Wdefault-const-init-field-unsafe]
+ 733 | struct vm_area_struct pseudo_vma;
+ | ^
+ include/linux/mm_types.h:803:20: note: member 'vm_flags' declared 'const' here
+ 803 | const vm_flags_t vm_flags;
+ | ^
+
+Silencing the instances from typecheck.h is difficult because '= {}' is
+not available in older but supported compilers and '= {0}' would cause
+warnings about a literal 0 being treated as NULL. While it might be
+possible to come up with a local hack to silence the warning for
+clang-21+, it may not be worth it since -Wuninitialized will still
+trigger if an uninitialized const variable is actually used.
+
+In all audited cases of the "field" variant of the warning, the members
+are either not used in the particular call path, modified through other
+means such as memset() / memcpy() because the containing object is not
+const, or are within a union with other non-const members.
+
+Since this warning does not appear to have a high signal to noise ratio,
+just disable it.
