From f11ee2ad25b22c2ee587045dd6999434375532f7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Len Baker Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2021 12:28:18 +0200 Subject: net: mana: Prefer struct_size over open coded arithmetic As noted in the "Deprecated Interfaces, Language Features, Attributes, and Conventions" documentation [1], size calculations (especially multiplication) should not be performed in memory allocator (or similar) function arguments due to the risk of them overflowing. This could lead to values wrapping around and a smaller allocation being made than the caller was expecting. Using those allocations could lead to linear overflows of heap memory and other misbehaviors. So, use the struct_size() helper to do the arithmetic instead of the argument "size + count * size" in the kzalloc() function.
