Two files access the zero-length resp_data[] array, which now
causes a compiler warning:

This should really be a flexible-array member, but the structure
already has such a member, swapping it out with sense_data[] would
cause many more warnings elsewhere.

As a workaround, add a temporary pointer that can be accessed without
a warning.

Hi Arnd,

If we really prefer flexible-array members over zero-length array 
members, then could we have a union of flexible-array members? I'm not 
sure if that's a good idea TBH (or even permitted), as these structures 
are defined by the SAS spec and good practice to keep as consistent as 
possible, but just wondering.

Apart from that:

gcc does not allow flexible-array members inside of a union, or more than
one flexible-array member at the end of a structure.

I found one hack that would work, but I think it's too ugly and likely not
well-defined either:

struct ssp_response_iu {
...
        struct {
                u8      dummy[0]; /* a struct must have at least one
non-flexible member */
                u8      resp_data[]; /* allowed here because it's at
the one of a struct */
        };
        u8     sense_data[];
} __attribute__ ((packed));

If gcc is now warning about zero length members, why isn't it warning
about this one ... are unions temporarily excluded?

Let's go back to what the standard says:  we want the data beyond the
ssp_response_iu to be addressable either as sense_data if it's an error
return or resp_data if it's a real response.  What about trying to use
an alias attribute inside the structure ... will that work on gcc-10?

It does not warn about all zero-length arrays, but it does warn when you
try to access an array with an out-of-range index, and this apparently
got extended in gcc-10 to any index for zero-length arrays.

I think alias attributes only work for functions and variables, but not
for struct members.

A "#define sense_data resp_data" would obviously work, but it's
rather error-prone when other code uses the same identifiers.

Another option would be an inline helper like

static inline u8 *ssp_response_data(struct ssp_response_iu *iu)
{
      return iu.resp_data;
}
