[PATCH] sctp: annotate struct sctp_assoc_ids with __counted_by()

From: Erick Archer
Date: Wed May 01 2024 - 13:01:55 EST


Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the
__counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with
__counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE
(for strcpy/memcpy-family functions).
