![]() iwlegacy uses command buffers with a payload size of 320
bytes (default) or 4092 bytes (huge). The struct il_device_cmd type
describes the default buffers and there is no separate type describing
the huge buffers.
The il_enqueue_hcmd() function works with both default and huge
buffers, and has a memcpy() to the buffer payload. The size of
this copy may exceed 320 bytes when using a huge buffer, which
now results in a run-time warning:
memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 1014) of single field "&out_cmd->cmd.payload" at drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/common.c:3170 (size 320)
To fix this:
- Define a new struct type for huge buffers, with a correctly sized
payload field
- When using a huge buffer in il_enqueue_hcmd(), cast the command
buffer pointer to that type when looking up the payload field

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 reStructuredText 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.
