Subject: [PATCH] octeontx2-af: Avoid field-overflowing memcpy()
Date: Mon, 21 Jun 2021 14:54:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210621215419.1407886-1-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)

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.

To avoid having memcpy() think a u64 "prof" is being written beyond,
adjust the prof member type by adding struct nix_bandprof_s to the union
to match the other structs. This silences the following future warning:
