Subject: [PATCH][next] tls: Avoid -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warning
Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2025 16:39:20 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aNFfmBLEoDSBSLJe@kspp> (raw)
-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.
Use the new TRAILING_OVERLAP() helper to fix the following warning:
net/tls/tls.h:131:29: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
This helper creates a union between a flexible-array member (FAM)
and a set of members that would otherwise follow it. This overlays
the trailing members onto the FAM while preserving the original
memory layout.
