PCI-2.2 VPD entries have a maximum size of 32k, but might actually
be smaller than that. To figure out the actual size one has to read
the VPD area until the 'end marker' is reached.
Trying to read VPD data beyond that marker results in 'interesting'
effects, from simple read errors to crashing the card. And to make
matters worse not every PCI card implements this properly, leaving
us with no 'end' marker or even completely invalid data.
This path modifies the size of the VPD attribute to the available
size, and disables the VPD attribute altogether if no valid data
could be read.

The offset comparison is probably redundant. There is already a check
in pci_vpd_pci22_read that will check the offset and return -EINVAL if
we have exceeded vpd->base.len. As such you can probably just do the
pci_read_vpd comparison and drop the offset length entirely.

Indeed it does. Will be doing so.

It looks like this still doesn't address the VPD_REF_F0 issue I
mentioned earlier. We don't need to compute the length for each
function we only need to do it once. I would recommend modifying
things so that you set vpd->base.len to 0 if the VPD_REF_F0 flag is
set.

But that would effectively inhibit access to the VPD on those devices, rendering the entire 'f0_ops' thingie quite pointless, right?

I think it's better to directly retrieve the VPD length from the base pci device, that would give us the correct length _and_ save duplicate calculations.

Also I wouldn't delete the vpd configuration if the length is not
correct as that will likely break several quirks that already exist
that are setting the length. Also there is no need to return an
error, the fact is the part has VPD but we cannot determine the length
as such the correct solution is to leave it at 0. We can leave that
for a quirk to sort out later if needed. You could probably move the
dev_dbg message to just before the return 0 in the pci_vpd_pci22_size
call and drop the entire if statement in the init function.

Okay.
Will be sending a new patch.

Cheers,

Hannes
