Subject: [PATCH 03/11] coredump: pin the protocol struct sizes
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 17:27:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811-work-coredump-sparse-v1-3-cd3e8b1e356d@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260811-work-coredump-sparse-v1-0-cd3e8b1e356d@kernel.org>
COREDUMP_REQ_SIZE_VER0 and COREDUMP_ACK_SIZE_VER0 define the initial
struct sizes.
Assert that both published sizes still match their structs, next to the
assert the coredump marks already have. While at it fix the "currently
know" typo in the doc.
