From b5c61b968def698c21e1aa8ae402cca393fe491f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2019 11:26:16 -0600 Subject: IB/cm: Use struct_size() in kmalloc() 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; void *entry[]; }; instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
