void foo(struct* bar)
{
}

And

struct foobar;

Is a single instance of struct, will the call

    No, it will not. The call is not legal, and an overload could make the call work.

    If a function needs a pointer to a struct, then you have to give it a pointer to a struct. Arrays are special since they decay to a pointer to the first element.
