Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 1/2] net: hsr: constify hsr_ops and prp_ops protocol operation structures
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 18:45:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326174600.136232-2-luka.gejak@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260326174600.136232-1-luka.gejak@linux.dev>
From: Luka Gejak <luka.gejak@linux.dev>
The hsr_ops and prp_ops structures are assigned to hsr->proto_ops during
device initialization and are never modified at runtime. Declaring them
as const allows the compiler to place these structures in read-only
memory, which improves security by preventing accidental or malicious
modification of the function pointers they contain.
The proto_ops field in struct hsr_priv is also updated to a const
pointer to maintain type consistency.
