RDMA/core: Fix multiple -Warray-bounds warnings

GCC-13 (and Clang)[1] does not like to access a partially allocated object, since it cannot reason about it for bounds checking.

In this case 140 bytes are allocated for an object of type struct ib_umad_packet:

        packet = kzalloc(sizeof(*packet) + IB_MGMT_RMPP_HDR, GFP_KERNEL);

However, notice that sizeof(*packet) is only 104 bytes:

struct ib_umad_packet {
        struct ib_mad_send_buf *   msg;                  /*     0     8 */
        struct ib_mad_recv_wc *    recv_wc;              /*     8     8 */
        struct list_head           list;                 /*    16    16 */
        int                        length;               /*    32     4 */

        /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

        struct ib_user_mad         mad __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /*    40    64 */

        /* size: 104, cachelines: 2, members: 5 */
        /* sum members: 100, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
        /* forced alignments: 1, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 4 */
        /* last cacheline: 40 bytes */
} __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));

and 36 bytes extra bytes are allocated for a flexible-array member in struct ib_user_mad:

include/rdma/ib_mad.h:
120 enum {
...
123 IB_MGMT_RMPP_HDR = 36,
... }

struct ib_user_mad {
        struct ib_user_mad_hdr     hdr;                  /*     0    64 */
        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
        __u64                      data[] __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /*    64     0 */

        /* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 2 */
        /* forced alignments: 1 */
} __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));

So we have sizeof(*packet) + IB_MGMT_RMPP_HDR == 140 bytes

Then the address of the flex-array member (for which only 36 bytes were allocated) is casted and copied into a pointer to struct ib_rmpp_mad, which, in turn, is of size 256 bytes:

        rmpp_mad = (struct ib_rmpp_mad *) packet->mad.data;

struct ib_rmpp_mad {

        struct ib_mad_hdr          mad_hdr;              /*     0    24 */
        struct ib_rmpp_hdr         rmpp_hdr;             /*    24    12 */
        u8                         data[220];            /*    36   220 */

        /* size: 256, cachelines: 4, members: 3 */
};

The thing is that those 36 bytes allocated for flex-array member data in struct ib_user_mad onlly account for the size of both struct ib_mad_hdr and struct ib_rmpp_hdr, but nothing is left for array u8 data[220]. So, the compiler is legitimately complaining about accessing an object for which not enough memory was allocated.

Apparently, the only members of struct ib_rmpp_mad that are relevant (that are actually being used) in function ib_umad_write() are mad_hdr and rmpp_hdr. So, instead of casting packet->mad.data to (struct ib_rmpp_mad *) create a new structure

struct ib_rmpp_mad_hdr {
        struct ib_mad_hdr       mad_hdr;
        struct ib_rmpp_hdr      rmpp_hdr;
} __packed;

and cast packet->mad.data to (struct ib_rmpp_mad_hdr *).

Notice that

        IB_MGMT_RMPP_HDR == sizeof(struct ib_rmpp_mad_hdr) == 36 bytes

Refactor the rest of the code, accordingly.

Fix the following warnings seen under GCC-13 and -Warray-bounds:
drivers/infiniband/core/user_mad.c:564:50: warning: array subscript ‘struct ib_rmpp_mad[0]’ is partly outside array bounds of ‘unsigned char[140]’ [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/infiniband/core/user_mad.c:566:42: warning: array subscript ‘struct ib_rmpp_mad[0]’ is partly outside array bounds of ‘unsigned char[140]’ [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/infiniband/core/user_mad.c:618:25: warning: array subscript ‘struct ib_rmpp_mad[0]’ is partly outside array bounds of ‘unsigned char[140]’ [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/infiniband/core/user_mad.c:622:44: warning: array subscript ‘struct ib_rmpp_mad[0]’ is partly outside array bounds of ‘unsigned char[140]’ [-Warray-bounds=]

Hi!

Another way to fix this is to create a new structure. I think I like this better; it avoids this horrid hack:

rmpp_hdr = *(struct ib_rmpp_hdr *)((u8 *)packet->mad.data + sizeof(struct ib_mad_hdr));

but it's up to you to pick the one you prefer. :)

Changes in v2:
- Create new struct ib_rmpp_mad_hdr.
