[PATCH v4] cxl/mbox: Fix Payload Length check for Get Log command

From: Robert Richter
Date: Thu Jan 19 2023 - 04:50:35 EST


Commit 2aeaf663b85e introduced strict checking for variable length
payload size validation. The payload length of received data must
match the size of the requested data by the caller except for the case
where the min_out value is set.

The Get Log command does not have a header with a length field set.
The Log size is determined by the Get Supported Logs command (CXL 3.0,
8.2.9.5.1). However, the actual size can be smaller and the number of
valid bytes in the payload output must be determined reading the
Payload Length field (CXL 3.0, Table 8-36, Note 2).

Two issues arise: The command can successfully complete with a payload
length of zero. And, the valid payload length must then also be
consumed by the caller.

Change cxl_xfer_log() to pass the number of payload bytes back to the
caller to determine the number of log entries. Implement the payload
handling as a special case where mbox_cmd->size_out is consulted when
cxl_internal_send_cmd() returns -EIO. A WARN_ONCE() is added to check
that -EIO is only returned in case of an unexpected output size.

Logs can be bigger than the maximum payload length and multiple Get
Log commands can be issued. If the received payload size is smaller
than the maximum payload size we can assume all valid bytes have been
fetched. Stop sending further Get Log commands then.

On that occasion, change debug messages to also report the opcodes of
supported commands.

The variable payload commands GET_LSA and SET_LSA are not affected by
this strict check: SET_LSA cannot be broken because SET_LSA does not
return an output payload, and GET_LSA never expects short reads.
