Rework the SCLP boundary check to account for different SCLP commands
(eventually) allowing different boundary sizes.

Move the length check code into a separate function, and introduce a
new function to determine the length of the read SCP data (i.e. the size
from the start of the struct to where the CPU entries should begin).

The format of read CPU info is unlikely to change in the future,
so we do not require a separate function to calculate its length.

^ what is that?

    if ((code & SCLP_CMD_CODE_MASK) && sccb_max_addr < sccb_boundary) {
        return true;
    }

So we return "false" on success? At least I consider that weird when
returning the bool type. Maybe make it clearer what the function indicates

"sccb_boundary_is_invalid"

or leave it named as is and switch from return value "bool" to "int",
using "0" on success and "-EINVAL" on error.

I agree it looks pointless in this patch, but it makes more sense in
patch #6 where we introduce cases for the SCLP commands that bypass
these checks if the extended-length sccb feature is enabled.

Hmmm... I figured since there were more paths that can lead to success
(i.e. when I introduce the feat check in a later patch), then it made
more sense to to return false at the end. sclp_command_code_valid has
similar logic.

But if boolean functions traditionally return true as the last return
value, I can rework it to align to coding preferences / standards.

Is the switch statement an overkill? I thought of it as a cleaner way to
later show which commands have a special conditions (introduced in patch
6 for the ELS stuff) instead of a nasty long if statement.

The alternative...

/* Comment explaining this check */
if ((code & SCLP_CMD_CODE_MASK) & (SCLP_CMDW_READ_SCP_INFO |
	SCLP_CMDW_READ_SCP_INFO_FORCED | SCLP_CMDW_READ_CPU_INFO) &&
	s390_has_feat(S390_FEAT_EXTENDED_LENGTH_SCCB)) {
	return true;
}

if (sccb_max_addr < sccb_boundary) {
        return true;
}

header->response_code = cpu_to_be16(SCLP_RC_SCCB_BOUNDARY_VIOLATION);
return false;

Oh, my tired eyes missed that it's actually only

if (sccb_max_addr < sccb_boundary) :)

I am really a friend of introducing stuff where needed. Just use a
simple "if" here and convert to the switch in patch #6.

The options I would support are

1. "sccb_boundary_is_valid" which returns "true" if valid
2. "sccb_boundary_is_invalid" which returns "true" if invalid
3. "sccb_boundary_validate" which returns "0" if valid and -EINVAL if not.

Which makes reading this code a bit easier.

I think the switch make sense in patch #6.

I can understand that. This follows the whole "each patch should be
sufficient on its own" way of thinking. A switch with no cases and a
default _does_ look silly.

Sounds good. I'll takes this into consideration for the next round. (I
may wait just a little longer for that to allow more reviews to come in
from whoever has the time, if that's okay.)

Of these, I like option 1 best.

We have to wait for (a) QEMU to do a release and (b) the Linux changes
to merge upstream anyway, so we're not in a hurry :)

As said before, it already looked good from my side, but the suggested
changes are fine with me as well.

Okay, thanks for the info.

I do want to send out a v5 of these patches. While working with someone
who is implementing the kernel support for the extended-length SCCB, we
found some snags. I'll highlight these changes/fixes in the respective
patches on the next version.

Thanks!
