That union is a bit dangerous. Perhaps it would be better to do
something like
--- a/include/linux/slab.h~a
+++ a/include/linux/slab.h
@@ -337,15 +337,17 @@ static __always_inline int kmalloc_size(
struct memcg_cache_params {
bool is_root_cache;
union {
- struct kmem_cache *memcg_caches[0];
- struct {
+ struct memcg_root_cache {
+ struct kmem_cache *caches[0];
+ } memcg_root_cache;
+ struct memcg_child_cache {
struct mem_cgroup *memcg;
struct list_head list;
struct kmem_cache *root_cache;
bool dead;
atomic_t nr_pages;
struct work_struct destroy;
- };
+ } memcg_child_cache;
};
};
And then adopt the convention of selecting either memcg_root_cache or
memcg_child_cache at the highest level then passing the more strongly
typed pointer to callees.
