[PATCH] RDMA/hns: Use 64-bit arithmetic instead of 32-bit

[PATCH] RDMA/hns: Use 64-bit arithmetic instead of 32-bit

[Gustavo A. R. Silva]

Cast *max_num_sg* to u64 in order to give the compiler complete
information about the proper arithmetic to use.

Notice that such variable is used in a context that expects an
expression of type u64 (64 bits, unsigned) and the following
expression is currently being evaluated using 32-bit
arithmetic:

length = max_num_sg * page_size;

And what is wrong with that?
Please fix static analyzer tool instead of fixing proper C code.

Thanks

Judging on the static analyzer tool's message, I don't see anything
wrong with it.  The code contains a potential unintentional overflow
error.  The author might have been well aware of the overflow and not
cared and in that case this is valid C, but the analyzer has no way of
knowing that, so it flags it for review.  To silence the checker you
could either cast the arithmetic to u64, or cast length to u32.  Either
would clear up the ambiguity.  I guess I'm not seeing why you would
blame the static checker in this case, it did the best it is possible
for it to do.

You are right, static analyzer tools have no way to understand that this
overflow isn't possible. I was over excited to go to my vacation hence my
response. Sorry about that.

Thanks

This should be done with check_mul_overflow() which will also force
the input types to the correct thing.

alloc_mr is callable from userspace so the potential overflow here
should not be ignored.

Yep, you're right. That's part of the new API for checking overflows.

I'll use that macro.
