[PATCH 22/32] atags_proc: Use mem_to_flex_dup() with struct buffer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As part of the work to perform bounds checking on all memcpy() uses,
replace the open-coded a deserialization of bytes out of memory into a
trailing flexible array by using a flex_array.h helper to perform the
allocation, bounds checking, and copying.
