Subject: [PATCH][next] RDMA/erdma: Replace zero-length arrays with flexible-array members
Date: Mon, 9 Jan 2023 19:40:22 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Y7zCBqwC1LtabRJ9@work> (raw)

Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1] and we are moving towards
adopting C99 flexible-array members instead. So, replace zero-length
arrays, in a couple of structures, with flex-array members.

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 [2].
