As recently Smatch suggested, a few places in ALSA control core codes may expand the array directly from the user-space value with speculation: sound/core/control.c:1003 snd_ctl_elem_lock() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd' sound/core/control.c:1031 snd_ctl_elem_unlock() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd' sound/core/control.c:844 snd_ctl_elem_info() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd' sound/core/control.c:891 snd_ctl_elem_read() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd' sound/core/control.c:939 snd_ctl_elem_write() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd' Although all these seem doing only the first load without further reference, we may want to stay in a safer side, so hardening with array_index_nospec() would still make sense. In this patch, we put array_index_nospec() to the common snd_ctl_get_ioff*() helpers instead of each caller. These helpers are also referred from some drivers, too, and basically all usages are to calculate the array index from the user-space value, hence it's better to cover there.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
