Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions). Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> --- This patch is part of a work done in parallel of what is currently worked on by Kees Cook. My patches are only related to corner cases that do NOT match the semantic of his Coccinelle script[1]. In this case, something similar to struct_size() is implemented in handle_arr_calc_size(). Note that I'm slightly unsure on how things will behave in regards to the krealloc() in vmci_handle_arr_append_entry().
