[PATCH] cfi: Include uaccess.h for get_kernel_nofault()

From: Nathan Chancellor

Date: Thu Jun 04 2026 - 20:34:26 EST


After commit 0652a3daa787 ("tracing: Fix CFI violation in probestub
being called by tprobes"), there are many build errors when building
ARCH=arm multi_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_CFI=y like:

In file included from drivers/base/devres.c:17:
In file included from drivers/base/trace.h:16:
In file included from include/linux/tracepoint.h:23:
include/linux/cfi.h:44:6: error: call to undeclared function 'get_kernel_nofault'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
44 | if (get_kernel_nofault(hash, func - cfi_get_offset()))
| ^
1 error generated.

get_kernel_nofault() is called in the generic version of
cfi_get_func_hash() but nothing ensures uaccess.h is always included for
a proper expansion and prototype. Include uaccess.h in cfi.h to clear up
the errors.
