[dm-devel] [PATCH v4 00/12] LLVMLinux: Patches to enable the kernel to be compiled with clang/LLVM

From: Behan Webster <behanw at converseincode.com>

Replaced the use of a Variable Length Array In Struct (VLAIS) with a C99
compliant equivalent. These patches allocate the appropriate amount of memory
using a char array using the SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK macro.

There are places in the kernel whose maintainers have previously taken our
patches to remove VLAIS from their crypto code. Once this patch set is accepted
into mainline, I'll go back and resubmit patches to these maintainers to use
this new macro so the same approach is used consistently in all places in the
kernel.

The LLVMLinux project aims to fully build the Linux kernel using both gcc and
clang (the C front end for the LLVM compiler infrastructure project).
