Subject: [PATCH] fbdev: Replace 0-length array with flexible array
Date: Thu, 5 Jan 2023 11:20:38 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230105192034.never.249-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1]. Replace struct aperture's "ranges"
0-length array with a flexible array. (How is the size of this array
verified?) Detected with GCC 13, using -fstrict-flex-arrays=3:
samples/vfio-mdev/mdpy-fb.c: In function 'mdpy_fb_probe':
samples/vfio-mdev/mdpy-fb.c:169:32: warning: array subscript 0 is outside array bounds of 'struct aperture[0]' [-Warray-bounds=]
169 | info->apertures->ranges[0].base = info->fix.smem_start;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~
In file included from samples/vfio-mdev/mdpy-fb.c:21:
include/linux/fb.h:510:19: note: while referencing 'ranges'
510 | } ranges[0];
| ^~~~~~
