From fa29c9c11d4e2ba514421758991e5b3095642844 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2020 10:23:32 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] params: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].
