I'm using {} instead of {0} because of this GCC bug. https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53119This is why the {} extension exists..There is no guarantee that the gcc struct initialization {} extension also zeros padding.We just went over this. Yes there is, C11 requires it.c11 is not c90. The kernel uses c90.
The kernel already relies on a lot of C11/C99 features and behaviors. For instance Linus just bumped the minimum compiler version so that C11's _Generic is usable. Why do you think this particular part of C11 shouldn't be relied on?
