In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time field bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid intentionally writing across neighboring fields. Use struct_group() in struct drm32_mga_init around members chipset, sgram, maccess, fb_cpp, front_offset, front_pitch, back_offset, back_pitch, depth_cpp, depth_offset, depth_pitch, texture_offset, and texture_size, so they can be referenced together. This will allow memcpy() and sizeof() to more easily reason about sizes, improve readability, and avoid future warnings about writing beyond the end of chipset. "pahole" shows no size nor member offset changes to struct drm32_mga_init. "objdump -d" shows no meaningful object code changes (i.e. only source line number induced differences and optimizations). Note that since this is a UAPI header, __struct_group() is used directly.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
