From bb3e16ad8b17dd83a11a7bcc5ca806c28de03c60 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2019 13:50:06 -0600 Subject: net, decnet: use struct_size() in kzalloc() 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[]; }; instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo), GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
