Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] cxl/features: Clamp Get Feature output size to the remaining buffer
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2026 18:41:02 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260626104102.53892-4-icheng@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260626104102.53892-1-icheng@nvidia.com>

cxl_get_feature() reads a feature in a loop but passes a fixed size_out
as the output capacity every iteration. On the last partial iteration
the buffer has less room left, so a device that returns more than asked
can overflow feat_out.

Use the per-iter size data_to_rd_size, which already tracks the
remaining room, as the output capacity.

Fixes: 5e5ac21f629d ("cxl/mbox: Add GET_FEATURE mailbox command")
