Subject: [PATCH 06/11] ipvs: Use struct_size() helper
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2019 00:23:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190217232357.29858-7-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190217232357.29858-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" <gustavo@embeddedor.com>
One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo entry[];
};
size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo);
instance = alloc(size, GFP_KERNEL)
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
size = struct_size(instance, entry, count);
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
