net: ipv6: fix field-spanning memcpy warning in AH output
Fix field-spanning memcpy warnings in ah6_output() and
ah6_output_done() where extension headers are copied to/from IPv6
address fields, triggering fortify-string warnings about writes beyond
the 16-byte address fields.
memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 40) of single field "&top_iph->saddr" at net/ipv6/ah6.c:439 (size 16)
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 8838 at net/ipv6/ah6.c:439 ah6_output+0xe7e/0x14e0 net/ipv6/ah6.c:439
The warnings are false positives as the extension headers are
intentionally placed after the IPv6 header in memory. Fix by properly
copying addresses and extension headers separately, and introduce
helper functions to avoid code duplication.
