[PATCH] crypto: hisilicon/qm - annotate cap_tables with __counted_by_ptr
From: Bill Wendling
Date: Wed Sep 23 2026 - 02:01:35 EST
Annotate the 'qm_cap_table' and 'dev_cap_table' pointer fields in
'struct hisi_qm_cap_tables' with the '__counted_by_ptr' attribute.
This improves bounds checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE, allowing KASAN and compiler diagnostics to
detect out-of-bounds accesses.
The 'qm_cap_table' pointer is associated with 'qm_cap_size' which
specifies its element count. Similarly, 'dev_cap_table' is associated
with 'dev_cap_size'.
To ensure safety under compiler instrumentation, the assignments in the
initialization paths have been updated to set the 'size'/'count' fields
prior to setting the pointer fields. This prevents any transient state
where the pointer is valid but the count is 0 (or uninitialized),
ensuring that subsequent accesses to these tables do not trigger
false-positive bounds check panics.
