Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] cxl/events: Validate the record count reported by the device
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 17:26:55 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901002912.958-3-anisa.su@samsung.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901002912.958-1-anisa.su@samsung.com>
cxl_mem_get_records_log() takes the record count straight out of the Get
Event Records payload and uses it to read from payload->records[].
An oversized count reads past that buffer. Both
__cxl_event_trace_record() and cxl_clear_event_record() use the record
count to iterate oer payload->records[].
Bound the count by mbox_cmd.size_out which is already sanitized by
__cxl_pci_mbox_send_cmd(). Report a bad record count as an error rather than a
drained log, so a device repeating the bad count does not keep the event
thread re-reading it.
Fixes: 6ebe28f9ec72 ("cxl/mem: Read, trace, and clear events on driver load")
