It sounds unwise to let user space pass an unchecked 32-bit offset into a kernel structure in an ioctl. This is an unsigned variable, so checking the upper bound for the size of the structure it points into is sufficient to avoid data corruption, but as the pointer might also be unaligned, it has to be written carefully as well.
While I stumbled over this problem by reading the code, I did not continue checking the function for further problems like it.

No need for the inner braces and please avoid over 80 char lines.
Otherwise looks good:

Sure, I can add that. It's been broken since 2.6.15 though, when the driver was initially merged.

Sorry for replying to an ancient thread, but this patch just recently made it into 5.10.3 and has caused unintended consequences. On Dell servers with PERC RAID controllers, booting 5.10.3+ with this patch causes a PCI parity error. Specifically:
Event Message: A PCI parity error was detected on a component at bus 0 device 5 function 0. Severity: Critical Message ID: PCI1308
I reverted this single patch and the errors went away.
Thoughts?

Thank you for the report and bisecting the issue, and sorry this broke your system!
Fortunately, the patch is fairly small, so there are only a limited number of things that could go wrong. I haven't tried to analyze that message, but I have two ideas:
a) The added ioc->sense_off check gets triggered and the code relies on the data being written outside of the structure
b) the address actually needs to always be written as a 64-bit value regardless of the instance->consistent_mask_64bit flag, as the driver did before. This looked like it was done in error.
Can you try the patch below instead of the revert and see if that resolves the regression, and if it triggers the warning message I add?

This hunk can't be right. It effectively means removing the if. However, the if is needed because sense_handle is a dma_addr_t which can be either 32 or 64 bit. What about changing the if to
if (sizeof(dma_addr_t) == 8)
instead?

I'm just trying to restore the state before the regression introduced in my 381d34e376e3 ("scsi: megaraid_sas: Check user-provided offsets").
The old code always stored 'sizeof(long)' bytes into sense_ptr, regardless of instance->consistent_mask_64bit, but it would truncate the address to 32 bit if that was cleared. This was clearly bogus and I tried to make it do something more meaningful, only storing 8 bytes into the structure if it was configured for 64-bit DMA, regardless of the capabilities of the kernel.

That would not be useful either, the device surely does not care if the kernel supports 64-bit DMA. What we'd really need here is someone with access to the interface specifications to see how many bytes should be stored in the structure. I suspect always storing 64 bits (as my patch does) is correct, and would send a proper patch to remove the if() if Phil confirms that my test patch fixes the regression.

Heh, well, all this depends on how the firmware interprets the pointer, for which we don't seem to have a manual. Instinct tells me the flag MFI_FRAME_SENSE64 is what does this and that's conditioned on the same if clause 100 lines above this, so the fix your proposing would still seem to be wrong, because I think when that flag is not set, the device expects the sense pointer to be 32 bit.
However, the if is needed because sense_handle is a dma_addr_t which can be either 32 or 64 bit. What about changing the if to
if (sizeof(dma_addr_t) == 8)

Well, as I said above, I'm speculating the device does what we tell it, and whether to use 32 or 64 bits for the sense pointer definitely seems to be a flag the driver controls ... we really need someone with access to the programming manual to tell us if this speculation is accurate, though.

Ok, thanks for testing! That would mean the range check is correct, but the sense pointer must indeed be treated as a 64-bit entity regardless of instance->consistent_mask_64bit, or at least the upper 32 bit must be zero when the flag is unset, rather than the recycled previous value.
I'll send a proper fix shortly, it would be nice if you could give it another spin, but the behavior should be the same as this patch.
