From dbfc622345f95e09ce36cbecf70715b7adcad661 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Yao Date: Sat, 11 Mar 2023 13:39:24 -0500 Subject: nvpair: Use flexible array member for nvpair name strings Coverity reported possible out-of-bounds reads from doing `((char *)(nvp) + sizeof (nvpair_t))` to get the nvpair name string. These were initially marked as false positives, but since we are now using C99 flexible array members elsewhere, we could use them here too as cleanup to make the code easier to understand.
