One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct touchpad_protocol { ... struct tp_finger fingers[0]; }; Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes. So, replace the following form: sizeof(*tp) + tp->number_of_fingers * sizeof(tp->fingers[0]); with: struct_size(tp, fingers, tp->number_of_fingers) This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
