Subject: [PATCH][next] netfilter: xt_hashlimit: use struct_size() helper
Date: Wed, 1 May 2019 17:01:08 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190501220108.GA30487@embeddedor> (raw)
Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes, in particular in the
context in which this code is being used.
So, replace code of the following form:
sizeof(struct xt_hashlimit_htable) + sizeof(struct hlist_head) * size
with:
struct_size(hinfo, hash, size)
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
