Subject: [PATCH] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Split memcpy of flex-array
Date:   Fri, 23 Sep 2022 20:07:41 -0700
Message-Id: <20220924030741.3345349-1-keescook@chromium.org>

To work around a misbehavior of the compiler's ability to see into
composite flexible array structs (as detailed in the coming memcpy()
hardening series[1]), split the memcpy() of the header and the payload
so no false positive run-time overflow warning will be generated. As it
turns out, this appears to actually reduce the text size:

$ size drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.o.before drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.o
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  22968    5239     232   28439    6f17 drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.o.before
  23032    5239     232   28503    6f57 drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.o
