H A D | conf.py | diff ca7e324e8ad385a2da15049953c04ea7310687f7 Wed Mar 27 15:22:39 CET 2024 Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@intel.com> compiler_types: add Endianness-dependent __counted_by_{le,be}
Some structures contain flexible arrays at the end and the counter for them, but the counter has explicit Endianness and thus __counted_by() can't be used directly.
To increase test coverage for potential problems without breaking anything, introduce __counted_by_{le,be}() defined depending on platform's Endianness to either __counted_by() when applicable or noop otherwise. Maybe it would be a good idea to introduce such attributes on compiler level if possible, but for now let's stop on what we have.
