| |
Zero-length arrays as fake flexible arrays are deprecated and we are moving towards adopting C99 flexible-array members instead.
Transform zero-length array into flexible-array member in struct nx_cardrsp_rx_ctx_t.
Address the following warnings found with GCC-13 and -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 enabled: drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/netxen/netxen_nic_ctx.c:361:26: warning: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of ‘char[0]’ [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/netxen/netxen_nic_ctx.c:372:25: warning: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of ‘char[0]’ [-Warray-bounds=]
This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].
