From a250cab009b578679496f53fe3532ef79821fe8f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2017 17:14:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Kbuild: make designated_init attribute fatal [ Upstream commit c834f0e8a8bb3025aac38e802fca2e686720f544 ] If a structure is marked with __attribute__((designated_init)) from GCC or Sparse, it needs to have all static initializers using designated initialization. Fail the build for any missing cases. This attribute will be used by the randstruct plugin to make sure randomized structures are being correctly initialized.
