Hello,

This problem also exists in Linux v5.19-rc1. Compiling with GCC 8 and GCC 9 fails,
but with GCC10 it compiles successfully.

I have extracted a standalone code snippet that triggers this bug, attaching
it at the bottom of this e-mail.

This indeed looks like a compiler bug for me, as cqe_size cannot be known at compile
time. What is interesting, replacing

        err = copy_to_user2((void  *)buf, init_ents,
                                size_mul2(4096, cqe_size)) ? -14 : 0;

with

        err = copy_to_user2((void  *)buf, init_ents,
                                4096 * cqe_size) ? -14 : 0;

makes the code compile successfully.

I have bisected GCC to find which commit in GCC fixes this problem and
obtained this:

Applying this patch on top of releases/gcc-9.5.0 fixes the build (of the attached snippet and of
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/cq.c ).

Ccing Mr Richard Biener, as he is the author of this patch.

I'm on Ubuntu 20.04, which ships with gcc version 9.4.0 (Ubuntu 9.4.0-1ubuntu1~20.04.1).
It was with this compiler version that I have found the problem.

It looks unlikely that GCC in Ubuntu 20.04 will be updated meaningfully.
Would a following workaround for Linux be acceptable?
