The compiler doesn't know that `32` is an offset into the Hash table:
56 struct Hash_ctx {
57 u8 H[16]; /* subkey */
58 u8 Htable[256]; /* Xi, Hash table(offset 32) */
59 };
So, it legitimately complains about a potential out-of-bounds issue
if `256 bytes` are accessed in `htable` (this implies going
`32 bytes` beyond the boundaries of `Htable`):
arch/powerpc/crypto/aes-gcm-p10-glue.c: In function 'gcmp10_init':
arch/powerpc/crypto/aes-gcm-p10-glue.c:120:9: error: 'gcm_init_htable' accessing 256 bytes in a region of size 224 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
120 | gcm_init_htable(hash->Htable+32, hash->H);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Address this by avoiding specifying the size of `htable` in the function
prototype; and just for consistency, do the same for parameter `Xi`.

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.
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.
