The "struct prestera_msg_vtcam_rule_add_req" uses a dynamically sized set of trailing elements. Specifically, it uses an array of structures of type "prestera_msg_acl_action actions_msg". The "struct prestera_msg_flood_domain_ports_set_req" also uses a dynamically sized set of trailing elements. Specifically, it uses an array of structures of type "prestera_msg_acl_action actions_msg". So, use the preferred way in the kernel declaring flexible arrays [1]. At the same time, prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions). In this case, it is important to note that the attribute used is specifically __counted_by_le since the counters are of type __le32. The logic does not need to change since the counters for the flexible arrays are asigned before any access to the arrays. The order in which the structure prestera_msg_vtcam_rule_add_req and the structure prestera_msg_flood_domain_ports_set_req are defined must be changed to avoid incomplete type errors. Also, avoid the open-coded arithmetic in memory allocator functions [2] using the "struct_size" macro. Moreover, the new structure members also allow us to avoid the open- coded arithmetic on pointers. So, take advantage of this refactoring accordingly. This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and modified manually.

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 reStructuredText 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.
