raw_msg is part of a union so its maximum size is implicitly the
biggest size of the other member of that union:

| struct es58x_fd_urb_cmd {
|     __le16 SOF;
|    u8 cmd_type;
|    u8 cmd_id;
|    u8 channel_idx;
|    __le16 msg_len;
|
|    union {
|        struct es58x_fd_tx_conf_msg tx_conf_msg;
|        u8 tx_can_msg_buf[ES58X_FD_TX_BULK_MAX * ES58X_FD_CANFD_TX_LEN];
|        u8 rx_can_msg_buf[ES58X_FD_RX_BULK_MAX * ES58X_FD_CANFD_RX_LEN];
|        struct es58x_fd_echo_msg echo_msg[ES58X_FD_ECHO_BULK_MAX];
|        struct es58x_fd_rx_event_msg rx_event_msg;
|        struct es58x_fd_tx_ack_msg tx_ack_msg;
|        __le64 timestamp;
|        __le32 rx_cmd_ret_le32;
|        u8 raw_msg[0];
|    } __packed;
|
|    __le16 reserved_for_crc16_do_not_use;
| } __packed;

ram_msg can then be used to manipulate the other fields at the byte level.
I am sorry but I fail to understand why this is an issue.

Also, the proposed fix drastically increases the size of the structure.


Yours sincerely,
