Subject: [PATCH] KVM: arm64: vgic: Annotate struct vgic_dist with __counted_by_ptr
Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2026 01:54:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260319015418.2871262-1-morbo@google.com> (raw)

Add the __counted_by_ptr attribute to the spis pointer field in struct
vgic_dist. This pointer field points to an array of struct vgic_irq
elements, and the number of elements is tracked by the nr_spis field
within the same structure.

The nr_spis field is initialized in vgic_init() (or earlier via
userspace) before the spis array is allocated in kvm_vgic_dist_init().
The nr_spis value remains constant during the lifetime of the spis
allocation, making it a suitable counter for the array.

This patch was generated by CodeMender and reviewed by Bill Wendling.
Tested with the KVM selftests.
