Subject: [PATCH] net: ipv6: rpl_iptunnel: Replace 0-length arrays with flexible arrays

From: Kees Cook <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 5 Jan 2023 14:15:37 -0800

Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1]. Replace struct ipv6_rpl_sr_hdr's
"segments" union of 0-length arrays with flexible arrays. Detected with
GCC 13, using -fstrict-flex-arrays=3:

In function 'rpl_validate_srh',
    inlined from 'rpl_build_state' at ../net/ipv6/rpl_iptunnel.c:96:7:
../net/ipv6/rpl_iptunnel.c:60:28: warning: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of 'struct in6_addr[0]' [-Warray-bounds=]
   60 |         if (ipv6_addr_type(&srh->rpl_segaddr[srh->segments_left - 1]) &
      |                            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from ../include/net/rpl.h:12,
                 from ../net/ipv6/rpl_iptunnel.c:13:
../include/uapi/linux/rpl.h: In function 'rpl_build_state':
../include/uapi/linux/rpl.h:40:33: note: while referencing 'addr'

      |                                 ^~~~
