AFAIU, chcr_ktls_ofld_ctx_tx just misuses the extra space allocated by tls_set_device_offload. There's no bug, but the code is a bit confusing. I don't think this patch works, since chcr_ktls doesn't allocate its own memory for chcr_ktls_ofld_ctx_tx. As part of a series of cleanups that I'll submit soon (hopefully this week), I updated chcr_ktls to use the driver_state part of tls_offload_context_tx (instead of the cast in chcr_get_ktls_tx_context), and then removed the flexarrays from tls_offload_context_tx and tls_offload_context_rx (since they're actually a fixed size).

`struct tls_offload_context_tx` is a flexible structure, which means that it contains a flexible-array member at the bottom. This could potentially lead to an overwrite of the objects following `base` in `struct chcr_ktls_ofld_ctx_tx` at run-time. Notice that flexible-array member `driver_state` in `struct tls_offload_context_tx` can grow up to 16 bytes: | include/net/tls.h-170: | #define TLS_DRIVER_STATE_SIZE_TX 16 | include/net/tls.h-173: | #define TLS_OFFLOAD_CONTEXT_SIZE_TX \ | (sizeof(struct tls_offload_context_tx) + TLS_DRIVER_STATE_SIZE_TX) | net/tls/tls_device.c-1119: | offload_ctx = kzalloc(TLS_OFFLOAD_CONTEXT_SIZE_TX, GFP_KERNEL); Fix this by placing the declaration of object `base` at the end of `struct chcr_ktls_ofld_ctx_tx`. -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end is coming in GCC-14, and we are getting ready to enable it globally.
