Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 1/4] afs: Annotate struct afs_addr_list with __counted_by
Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2026 10:48:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260722144836.1601242-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026072053-iciness-ecosystem-430e@gregkh>

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

[ Upstream commit 2d26302bdff1300029a67931739f5770eac22493 ]

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS
(for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).

As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct afs_addr_list.
