[clang] Implement -fstrict-flex-arrays=3
The -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 is the most restrictive type of flex arrays.
No number, including 0, is allowed in the FAM. In the cases where a "0"
is used, the resulting size is the same as if a zero-sized object were
substituted.
This is needed for proper _FORTIFY_SOURCE coverage in the Linux kernel,
among other reasons. So while the only reason for specifying a
zero-length array at the end of a structure is for specify a FAM,
treating it as such will cause _FORTIFY_SOURCE not to work correctly;
__builtin_object_size will report -1 instead of 0 for a destination
buffer size to keep any kernel internals from using the deprecated
members as fake FAMs.
For example:
struct broken {
int foo;
int fake_fam[0];
struct something oops;
};
There have been bugs where the above struct was created because "oops"
was added after "fake_fam" by someone not realizing. Under
__FORTIFY_SOURCE, doing:
memcpy(p->fake_fam, src, len);
raises no warnings when __builtin_object_size(p->fake_fam, 1) returns -1
and may stomp on "oops."
Omitting a warning when using the (invalid) zero-length array is how GCC
treats -fstrict-flex-arrays=3. A warning in that situation is likely an
irritant, because requesting this option level is explicitly requesting
this behavior.
