Subject: [PATCH][next] netxen_nic: Replace fake flex-array with flexible-array member
Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2023 17:40:28 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZAZ57I6WdQEwWh7v@work> (raw)

Zero-length arrays as fake flexible arrays are deprecated and we are
moving towards adopting C99 flexible-array members instead.

Transform zero-length array into flexible-array member in struct
nx_cardrsp_rx_ctx_t.

Address the following warnings found with GCC-13 and
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 enabled:
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/netxen/netxen_nic_ctx.c:361:26: warning: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of ‘char[0]’ [-Warray-bounds=]
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/netxen/netxen_nic_ctx.c:372:25: warning: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of ‘char[0]’ [-Warray-bounds=]

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].
