One-element arrays are deprecated, and we are replacing them with flexible array members instead. So, replace one-element array with flexible-array member in struct mwifiex_ie_types_rates_param_set. These are the only binary differences I see after the change: mwifiex.o _@@ -50154,7 +50154,7 @@ 23514: R_X86_64_32S kmalloc_caches+0x50 23518: call 2351d <mwifiex_scan_networks+0x11d> 23519: R_X86_64_PLT32 __tsan_read8-0x4 - 2351d: mov $0x225,%edx + 2351d: mov $0x224,%edx 23522: mov $0xdc0,%esi 23527: mov 0x0(%rip),%rdi # 2352e <mwifiex_scan_networks+0x12e> 2352a: R_X86_64_PC32 kmalloc_caches+0x4c scan.o _@@ -5582,7 +5582,7 @@ 4394: R_X86_64_32S kmalloc_caches+0x50 4398: call 439d <mwifiex_scan_networks+0x11d> 4399: R_X86_64_PLT32 __tsan_read8-0x4 - 439d: mov $0x225,%edx + 439d: mov $0x224,%edx 43a2: mov $0xdc0,%esi 43a7: mov 0x0(%rip),%rdi # 43ae <mwifiex_scan_networks+0x12e> 43aa: R_X86_64_PC32 kmalloc_caches+0x4c and the reason for that is the following line: drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/scan.c: 1517 scan_cfg_out = kzalloc(sizeof(union mwifiex_scan_cmd_config_tlv), 1518 GFP_KERNEL); sizeof(union mwifiex_scan_cmd_config_tlv) is now one-byte smaller due to the flex-array transformation: 46 union mwifiex_scan_cmd_config_tlv { 47 /* Scan configuration (variable length) */ 48 struct mwifiex_scan_cmd_config config; 49 /* Max allocated block */ 50 u8 config_alloc_buf[MAX_SCAN_CFG_ALLOC]; 51 }; Notice that MAX_SCAN_CFG_ALLOC is defined in terms of sizeof(struct mwifiex_ie_types_rates_param_set), see: 26 /* Memory needed to store supported rate */ 27 #define RATE_TLV_MAX_SIZE (sizeof(struct mwifiex_ie_types_rates_param_set) \ 28 + HOSTCMD_SUPPORTED_RATES) 37 /* Maximum memory needed for a mwifiex_scan_cmd_config with all TLVs at max */ 38 #define MAX_SCAN_CFG_ALLOC (sizeof(struct mwifiex_scan_cmd_config) \ 39 + sizeof(struct mwifiex_ie_types_num_probes) \ 40 + sizeof(struct mwifiex_ie_types_htcap) \ 41 + CHAN_TLV_MAX_SIZE \ 42 + RATE_TLV_MAX_SIZE \ 43 + WILDCARD_SSID_TLV_MAX_SIZE) This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].
