This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled net/mlx4_core: Limit count field to 24 bits in qp_alloc_res to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11-ckt13. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 53772173fec257c38c48c62f252edb84fae04ac1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il> Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2014 11:54:31 +0200 Subject: net/mlx4_core: Limit count field to 24 bits in qp_alloc_res [ Upstream commit 2d5c57d7fbfaa642fb7f0673df24f32b83d9066c ] Some VF drivers use the upper byte of "param1" (the qp count field) in mlx4_qp_reserve_range() to pass flags which are used to optimize the range allocation. Under the current code, if any of these flags are set, the 32-bit count field yields a count greater than 2^24, which is out of range, and this VF fails. As these flags represent a "best-effort" allocation hint anyway, they may safely be ignored. Therefore, the PF driver may simply mask out the bits.
