Subject: [PATCH] wifi: p54: Annotate struct p54_cal_database with __counted_by

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for
array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).

As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct p54_cal_database.

Hi,

I randomly peeked at this patch. Unfortunately, I am not familiar
with the actual p54 code.

This looks incorrect - I think you want __counted_by(len)? The
presence of entry_size made me suspicious.

This is the function that creates struct p54_cal_database:

static struct p54_cal_database *p54_convert_db(struct pda_custom_wrapper *src,
size_t total_len)
{
struct p54_cal_database *dst;
size_t payload_len, entries, entry_size, offset;

payload_len = le16_to_cpu(src->len);
entries = le16_to_cpu(src->entries);
entry_size = le16_to_cpu(src->entry_size);
offset = le16_to_cpu(src->offset);
if (((entries * entry_size + offset) != payload_len) ||
(payload_len + sizeof(*src) != total_len))
return NULL;

dst = kmalloc(sizeof(*dst) + payload_len, GFP_KERNEL);
if (!dst)
return NULL;

dst->entries = entries;
dst->entry_size = entry_size;
dst->offset = offset;
dst->len = payload_len;

memcpy(dst->data, src->data, payload_len);
return dst;
}

You can see that kmalloc is performed with `sizeof(*dst) +
payload_len`, and payload_len is assigned to ->len.

I don't read Coccinelle, but, if this patch was auto-generated, I
wonder if the script has an error.

Jason

It seems that my Coccinelle script got confused by this:

p54_convert_output_limits():

priv->output_limit = kmalloc(data[1] *
sizeof(struct pda_channel_output_limit) +
sizeof(*priv->output_limit), GFP_KERNEL);

...

priv->output_limit->entry_size =
sizeof(struct pda_channel_output_limit);
priv->output_limit->len = priv->output_limit->entry_size *
priv->output_limit->entries +
priv->output_limit->offset;

It thought "sizeof(struct pda_channel_output_limit)" was the element
count, since it wasn't able to identify the array member here.

Regardless, I've sent a v2 now. :)
