[ Upstream commit e2bca4870fdaf855651ee80b083d892599c5d982 ] Sergei Trofimovich reported a regression [0] caused by commit a0ade8404c3b ("af_packet: Fix warning of fortified memcpy() in packet_getname()."). It introduced a flex array sll_addr_flex in struct sockaddr_ll as a union-ed member with sll_addr to work around the fortified memcpy() check. However, a userspace program uses a struct that has struct sockaddr_ll in the middle, where a flex array is illegal to exist. include/linux/if_packet.h:24:17: error: flexible array member 'sockaddr_ll::<unnamed union>::<unnamed struct>::sll_addr_flex' not at end of 'struct packet_info_t' 24 | __DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY(unsigned char, sll_addr_flex); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To fix the regression, let's go back to the first attempt [1] telling memcpy() the actual size of the array.
