The keys is embedded in multiple data structures as a generalized model with some helpers, bkey_bytes() is one of them.

It is not surprised for such feeling when people read the code at first glance. And thank you for improving it :-)

How does the above information can be founded? Should I use llvm and enable FORTIFY_SOURCE?

I don’t say the bkey and bkey_bytes() stuffs are elegant, but why the compiler cannot find such situation? IMHO it is quite similar to something like “struct foo *bar[0]” at the end of a data structure.

The code comments as justification is informative. Thanks for this.
