Subject: net, decnet: use struct_size() in kzalloc()
X-Git-Url: http://git.osdn.net/view?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bb3e16ad8b17dd83a11a7bcc5ca806c28de03c60;p=android-x86%2Fkernel.git

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.
