In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time field bounds checking for memset(), avoid intentionally writing across neighboring fields. Add struct_group() to mark the "info" region (containing struct DInfo and struct DXInfo structs) in struct hfsplus_cat_folder and struct hfsplus_cat_file that are written into directly, so the compiler can correctly reason about the expected size of the writes. "pahole" shows no size nor member offset changes to struct hfsplus_cat_folder nor struct hfsplus_cat_file. "objdump -d" shows no object code changes.

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.
