From: Behan Webster Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Removing the use of VLAIS from the Linux Kernel Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2012 14:37:27 -0400 Message-ID: <1351622249-18084-1-git-send-email-behanw@converseincode.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: QUOTED-PRINTABLE Cc: linux-crypto@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Behan Webster To: herbert@gondor.apana.org.au, davem@davemloft.net Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-crypto.vger.kernel.org The use of variable length arrays in structs (VLAIS) in the Linux Kerne= l code precludes the use of compilers which don't implement VLAIS (for instanc= e the Clang compiler). The LLVMLinux Project is working towards the ability o= f providing the Linux kernel developer the choice of using the Clang comp= iler toolchain. This is a part of a series of patches which remove the use o= f VLAIS from crypto code, dm-crypt, jbd2, libcrc32c, netfilter, and usb gadget.= Other patches to allow Clang to be used will follow.
