Subject: [PATCH 6.18 1/4] dm-verity-fec: fix the size of dm_verity_fec_io::erasures
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 22:19:06 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729051909.62106-2-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729051909.62106-1-ebiggers@kernel.org>
commit a7fca324d7d90f7b139d4d32747c83a629fdb446 upstream.
At most 25 entries in dm_verity_fec_io::erasures are used: the maximum
number of FEC roots plus one. Therefore, set the array size
accordingly. This reduces the size of dm_verity_fec_io by 912 bytes.
Note: a later commit introduces a constant DM_VERITY_FEC_MAX_ROOTS,
which allows the size to be more clearly expressed as
DM_VERITY_FEC_MAX_ROOTS + 1. This commit just fixes the size first.
Fixes: a739ff3f543a ("dm verity: add support for forward error correction")
