srpt_handle_cmd() maps the initiator-supplied srp_cmd-&gt;task_attr into
cmd-&gt;sam_task_attr, but then hands a hardcoded TCM_SIMPLE_TAG to
target_init_cmd().

Pass the already mapped cmd-&gt;sam_task_attr instead, so target core sees the
attribute the initiator requested.

<content type='text'>
When srpt_alloc_rw_ctxs() fails partway through a multi-buffer indirect
descriptor, the unwind path destroys RDMA contexts but leaves stale
n_rw_ctx and n_rdma values (and a dangling rw_ctxs pointer). Later
sq_wr_avail accounting in srpt_queue_response() or srpt_write_pending()
can then subtract the wrong number of send queue credits.

Reset the counters and clear rw_ctxs after freeing the heap
allocation before returning an error.

<title>RDMA: Change capability fields in ib_device_attr from int to u32</title>

<id>urn:sha1:eebd08d91ddbd6d77cdde64b854f3f55317e165a</id>
<content type='text'>
The capability counter fields in struct ib_device_attr are declared
as signed int, but these values are inherently non-negative. Drivers
maintain their cached caps as u32 and assign them directly into these
int fields; if a cap exceeds INT_MAX the implicit narrowing yields a
negative value visible to the IB core.

Change the signed int capability fields to u32 to match the
underlying nature of the data. Also update consumers across the IB
core, ULPs, NVMe-oF target, RDS, and NFS/RDMA so the new u32 values
are not forced back through signed int or u8 via min()/min_t() or
narrowing local variables.

The nvmet-rdma consumer of max_srq clamps it against
ib_device.num_comp_vectors, which stays a signed int, so that site
uses min_t() instead of min() to handle the signed/unsigned mismatch.

<title>RDMA/srpt: fix integer overflow in immediate data length check</title>

<content type='text'>
imm_buf-&gt;len is a user-controlled uint32_t received from the network.
Adding it to imm_data_offset without overflow checking allows a
malicious initiator to send len=0xFFFFFFFF, causing req_size to wrap
around to a small value, bypassing the bounds check, and subsequently
passing a ~4GB length to sg_init_one().

Use check_add_overflow() to detect wrapping before the comparison.

<title>Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments</title>

<content type='text'>
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.

As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Remove &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; from &lt;linux/kernel.h&gt; and update all users/callers of
hex.h interfaces to directly #include &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; as part of the process
of putting kernel.h on a diet.

Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to
pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that
need it.

This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes.  Also,
all users/callers of &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; in the entire source tree have been
updated if needed (if not already #included).
