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 fw_rsc_vdev { ... struct fw_rsc_vdev_vring vring[0]; } __packed; Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes. So, replace the following form: sizeof(*rsc) + rsc->num_of_vrings * sizeof(struct fw_rsc_vdev_vring) with: struct_size(rsc, vring, rsc->num_of_vrings) This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
