From 6b41d4d9cb8f48363e50990e00c64c3fde355d11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2019 13:41:53 -0600 Subject: libceph: use struct_size() for kmalloc() in crush_decode() 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 = kmalloc(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 = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
