One-element arrays are deprecated, and we are replacing them with flexible array members instead. However, in this case it seems those one-element arrays have never actually been used as fake flexible arrays. See this code that dates from Linux-2.6.12-rc2 initial git repository build (commit 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")): sound/pci/mixart/mixart_core.h: 215 struct mixart_stream_state_req 216 { 217 u32 delayed; 218 u64 scheduler; 219 u32 reserved4np[3]; 220 u32 stream_count; /* set to 1 for instance */ 221 struct mixart_flow_info stream_info; /* could be an array[stream_count] */ 222 } __attribute__((packed)); sound/pci/mixart/mixart.c: 388 389 memset(&stream_state_req, 0, sizeof(stream_state_req)); 390 stream_state_req.stream_count = 1; 391 stream_state_req.stream_info.stream_desc.uid_pipe = stream->pipe->group_uid; 392 stream_state_req.stream_info.stream_desc.stream_idx = stream->substream->number; 393 So, taking the code above as example, replace multiple one-element arrays with simple object declarations, and refactor the rest of the code, accordingly. This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1]. This results in no differences in binary output.
