![]() The trailing array member of struct tx_buf was defined as a 1-element array, but used as a flexible array. This was resulting in build warnings: In function 'fortify_memset_chk', inlined from 'memset_io' at /kisskb/src/arch/mips/include/asm/io.h:486:2, inlined from 'build_auth_frame' at /kisskb/src/drivers/net/wireless/legacy/ray_cs.c:2697:2: /kisskb/src/include/linux/fortify-string.h:493:25: error: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning] 493 | __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Replace it with an actual flexible array. Binary difference comparison shows a single change in output: │ drivers/net/wireless/legacy/ray_cs.c:883 │ lea 0x1c(%rbp),%r13d │ - cmp $0x7c3,%r13d │ + cmp $0x7c4,%r13d This is from: if (len + TX_HEADER_LENGTH > TX_BUF_SIZE) { specifically: #define TX_BUF_SIZE (2048 - sizeof(struct tx_msg)) This appears to have been originally buggy, so the change is correct.
