There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].
This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle:
(next-20220214$ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . > output.patch)
@@
identifier S, member, array;
type T1, T2;
@@
struct S {
...
T1 member;
T2 array[
- 0
];
};
UAPI and wireless changes were intentionally excluded from this patch
and will be sent out separately.

Reorder and document on-disk and netlink structures in headers.
This is a userspace ABI to communicate data between ksmbd and user IPC
daemon using netlink. This is added to track and cache user account DB
and share configuration info from userspace.
- KSMBD_EVENT_HEARTBEAT_REQUEST(ksmbd_heartbeat)
This event is to check whether user IPC daemon is alive. If user IPC
daemon is dead, ksmbd keep existing connection till disconnecting and
new connection will be denied.
- KSMBD_EVENT_STARTING_UP(ksmbd_startup_request)
This event is to receive the information that initializes the ksmbd
server from the user IPC daemon and to start the server. The global
section parameters are given from smb.conf as initialization
information.
- KSMBD_EVENT_SHUTTING_DOWN(ksmbd_shutdown_request)
This event is to shutdown ksmbd server.
- KSMBD_EVENT_LOGIN_REQUEST/RESPONSE(ksmbd_login_request/response)
This event is to get user account info to user IPC daemon.
- KSMBD_EVENT_SHARE_CONFIG_REQUEST/RESPONSE
(ksmbd_share_config_request/response)
This event is to get net share configuration info.
- KSMBD_EVENT_TREE_CONNECT_REQUEST/RESPONSE
(ksmbd_tree_connect_request/response)
This event is to get session and tree connect info.
- KSMBD_EVENT_TREE_DISCONNECT_REQUEST(ksmbd_tree_disconnect_request)
This event is to send tree disconnect info to user IPC daemon.
- KSMBD_EVENT_LOGOUT_REQUEST(ksmbd_logout_request)
This event is to send logout request to user IPC daemon.
- KSMBD_EVENT_RPC_REQUEST/RESPONSE(ksmbd_rpc_command)
This event is to make DCE/RPC request like srvsvc, wkssvc, lsarpc,
samr to be processed in userspace.
- KSMBD_EVENT_SPNEGO_AUTHEN_REQUEST/RESPONSE
(ksmbd_spnego_authen_request/response)
This event is to make kerberos authentication to be processed in
userspace.
