[PATCH 2/3] scsi: esas2r: Switch to flexible array member

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-28 18:13:45
Also in: linux-hardening, lkml
Subsystem: scsi subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: "James E.J. Bottomley", "Martin K. Petersen", Linus Torvalds

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memcpy(), avoid intentionally writing across
neighboring array fields.

Remove old-style 1-byte array in favor of a flexible array[1] to avoid
future false-positive cross-field memcpy() warning in:

esas2r_vda.c:
	memcpy(vi->cmd.gsv.version_info, esas2r_vdaioctl_versions, ...)

The change in struct size doesn't change other structure sizes (it is
already maxed out to 256 bytes, for example here:

        union {
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_scsi_cmd scsi;
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_flash_cmd flash;
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_diag_cmd diag;
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_cli_cmd cli;
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_smp_cmd smp;
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_cfg_cmd cfg;
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_mgt_cmd mgt;
                struct atto_ioctl_vda_gsv_cmd gsv;
                u8 cmd_info[256];
        } cmd;

No sizes are calculated using the enclosing structure, so no other
updates are needed.
