Subject: [libnetfilter_conntrack PATCH] expect/conntrack: Avoid spurious covscan overrun warning
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2022 15:48:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220325144807.18049-1-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)

It doesn't like how memset() is called for a struct nfnlhdr pointer with
large size value. Pass void pointers instead. This also removes the call
from __build_{expect,conntrack}() which is duplicate in
__build_query_{exp,ct}() code-path.
