[PATCH 0/2][next] scsi: qla2xxx: Replace one-element array with flexible-array member

[Gustavo A. R. Silva]

Hi!

This series aims to replace a one-element array with flexible-array
member in drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_def.h through the use of the
DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper.

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].

[PATCH 1/2][next] scsi: qla2xxx: Replace one-element array with DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper

[Gustavo A. R. Silva]

One-element arrays as fake flex arrays are deprecated and we are moving
towards adopting C99 flexible-array members, instead. So, replace
one-element array declaration in struct ct_sns_gpnft_rsp, which is
ultimately being used inside a union:

drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_def.h:
3240 struct ct_sns_gpnft_pkt {
3241         union {
3242                 struct ct_sns_req req;
3243                 struct ct_sns_gpnft_rsp rsp;
3244         } p;
3245 };

Important to mention is that doing a build before/after this patch results
in no binary differences.

This help us make progress towards globally enabling
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].

Hi,

even with the:

Yep; that change compensates for the removal of the 1 in the declaration
of entries[].

The above piece of code is a common idiom to calculate the size for an
allocation when a one-element array is involved. In the original code
(vha->hw->max_fibre_devices - 1) compensates for the _extra_ size of one
element of type struct ct_sns_gpn_ft_data in sizeof(struct ct_sns_gpnft_rsp).

Yes, I do agree, that the code is equivalent. I was surprised that a 
compiler was smart enough to generate the same binary code.

With gcc 11.3.0 (x86_64), I do get some differences when I do:
    make drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_gs.o
    objdump -D  drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_gs.o > before.asm

    patch -p1 < patch.diff

    make drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_gs.o
    objdump -D  drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_gs.o > after.asm

    diff -u before.asm after.asm

Mostly some slight ordering of instruction changes, but the binary are 
not the same.

We discard the tiny changes that don't affect the logic or the control

[PATCH 2/2][next] scsi: qla2xxx: Use struct_size() in code related to struct ct_sns_gpnft_rsp

[Gustavo A. R. Silva]

Prefer struct_size() over open-coded versions of idiom:

sizeof(struct-with-flex-array) + sizeof(typeof-flex-array-elements) * count

where count is the max number of items the flexible array is supposed to
contain.

This should be able to use sp->u.iocb_cmd.u.ctarg.rsp instead of the
explicit struct with a NULL. (It's just using typeof() internally, so
it's okay that it isn't allocated yet.)

mmh... yeah; and considering they're already going all the way down to
sp->u.iocb_cmd.u.ctarg.req_size, I think accessing sp->u.iocb_cmd.u.ctarg.rsp
is perfectly fine. :)

I'll respin. Thanks for the feedback!

except that... it seems sp->u.iocb_cmd.u.ctarg.rsp is a pointer to void
and not a struct of type struct ct_sns_gpnft_rsp. :O

drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_def.h:474:
struct ct_arg {
        void            *iocb;
        u16             nport_handle;
        dma_addr_t      req_dma;
        dma_addr_t      rsp_dma;
        u32             req_size;
        u32             rsp_size;
        u32             req_allocated_size;
        u32             rsp_allocated_size;
        void            *req;
        void            *rsp;
        port_id_t       id;
};

I wonder if you wanted to point out something entirely different...?
