Hi all,
I come across the following code in a kernel module code. It defines an array whose length is variant at runtime, depending on the actual inputs. It seems that kernel compiler supports this, which is obvious an error in the standard ANSI C. Do I have the correct understanding on it?

Thank you.
u32 rxe_icrc_hdr(struct rxe_pkt_info *pkt, struct sk_buff *skb)
{
...
int hdr_size = sizeof(struct udphdr) +
(skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_IP) ?
sizeof(struct iphdr) : sizeof(struct ipv6hdr));
u8 tmp[hdr_size + RXE_BTH_BYTES];
...
}
Cheers,
Wenda Ni, Ph.D.
