Subject: [GIT PULL] VLA removal for v4.20-rc1
Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2018 10:24:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181028172401.GA41102@beast> (raw)
Hi Linus,
Please pull these VLA removal changes for v4.20-rc1. This turns on "-Wvla"
globally now that the last few trees with their VLA removals have landed
(crypto, block, net, and powerpc). Arnd mentioned that there may be a
couple more VLAs hiding in hard-to-find randconfigs, but nothing big has
shaken out in the last month or so in linux-next. We should be basically
VLA-free now! Wheee. :)
Thanks!
-Kees
