I'll build a VM with this change to clear my conscience (maybe the change triggers a compiler bug, however unlikely that sounds) before replying with any tags. Likely next Monday, but feel free to beat me to it, or perhaps, someone else will tag this as reviewed by them and/or tested by them. > > Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/79 > Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev> > --- > Changes in v2: > - Replace sizeof() with struct_size_t(,,1) to maintain the same size > after feedback from Roman Kisel (thanks!) > - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250116201635.47870-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev/ > --- > drivers/net/hyperv/hyperv_net.h | 2 +- > drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c | 3 ++- > 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/net/hyperv/hyperv_net.h b/drivers/net/hyperv/hyperv_net.h > index e690b95b1bbb..234db693cefa 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/hyperv/hyperv_net.h > +++ b/drivers/net/hyperv/hyperv_net.h > @@ -464,7 +464,7 @@ struct nvsp_1_message_send_receive_buffer_complete { > * LargeOffset SmallOffset > */ > > - struct nvsp_1_receive_buffer_section sections[1]; > + struct nvsp_1_receive_buffer_section sections[]; > } __packed; > > /* > diff --git a/drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c b/drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c > index 9afb08dbc350..d6f5b9ea3109 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c > +++ b/drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c > @@ -866,7 +866,8 @@ static void netvsc_send_completion(struct net_device *ndev, > > case NVSP_MSG1_TYPE_SEND_RECV_BUF_COMPLETE: > if (msglen < sizeof(struct nvsp_message_header) + > - sizeof(struct nvsp_1_message_send_receive_buffer_complete)) { > + struct_size_t(struct nvsp_1_message_send_receive_buffer_complete, > + sections, 1)) { > netdev_err(ndev, "nvsp_msg1 length too small: %u\n", > msglen); > return;

Doesn't look like a real bug fix, so would be good to get some signal soon. The merge window is soon so we'll likely close the trees very very soon ..

Replace the deprecated one-element array with a modern flexible array member in the struct nvsp_1_message_send_receive_buffer_complete. Use struct_size_t(,,1) instead of sizeof() to maintain the same size. Compile-tested only.
