From e2ae8ab4b571e2e4094a28acb60649bc2732c67f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2017 14:35:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kexec_file: adjust declaration of kexec_purgatory Defining kexec_purgatory as a zero-length char array upsets compile time size checking. Since this is built on a per-arch basis, define it as an unsized char array (like is done for other similar things, e.g. linker sections). This silences the warning generated by the future CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE, which did not like the memcmp() of a "0 byte" array. This drops the __weak and uses an extern instead, since both users define kexec_purgatory.
