[PATCH -next] wifi: mt76: mt7925:: replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

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

 



The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
	int stuff;
	struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last, which is beneficial
to cultivate a high-quality code.[2]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.
