Actualmente esto se comunica s\u00f3lo a trav\u00e9s de comentarios en el c\u00f3digo y el compilador no tiene idea. Por ejemplo, si escribo un error como este: long retbuf[PLPAR_HCALL_BUFSIZE]; // deber\u00eda ser PLPAR_HCALL9_BUFSIZE plpar_hcall9(H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, retbuf, ...); Esto se compila sin emitir diagn\u00f3sticos, pero probablemente da como resultado da\u00f1os en la pila en tiempo de ejecuci\u00f3n cuando plpar_hcall9() almacena los resultados m\u00e1s all\u00e1 del final de la matriz. (Para ser claros, este es un ejemplo artificial y todav\u00eda no he encontrado una instancia real). Para hacer que esta clase de error sea menos probable, podemos usar par\u00e1metros de matriz de tama\u00f1o expl\u00edcito en lugar de punteros en las declaraciones de las API hcall. Cuando se compila con -Warray-bounds[1], el c\u00f3digo anterior ahora provoca un diagn\u00f3stico como este: error: el argumento de la matriz es demasiado peque\u00f1o; es de tama\u00f1o 32, el destinatario requiere al menos 72 [-Werror,-Warray-bounds] 60 | plpar_hcall9(H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, retbuf, | ^ ~~~~~~ [1] Habilitado para compilaciones LLVM pero no para GCC por ahora.
