Subject: [PATCH v2] perf/x86: Annotate struct bts_buffer with __counted_by()
Date: Wed,  5 Mar 2025 13:31:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250305123134.215577-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)

Add the __counted_by() compiler attribute to the flexible array member
buf to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.

No functional changes intended.

Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>

Changes in v2:
- struct_size() changes should be a separate patch as suggested by Ingo
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250304183056.78920-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev/
