Subject: [RESEND PATCH] ext4: Annotate struct fname with __counted_by()
Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2024 15:07:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241007130716.3442-1-thorsten.blum@toblux.com> (raw)
Add the __counted_by compiler attribute to the flexible array member
name to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.
Inline and use struct_size() to calculate the number of bytes to
allocate for new_fn and remove the local variable len.
