+Subject: netlink: Return unsigned value for nla_len()
+
+From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
+
+commit 172db56d90d29e47e7d0d64885d5dbd92c87ec42 upstream.
+
+The return value from nla_len() is never expected to be negative, and can
+never be more than struct nlattr::nla_len (a u16). Adjust the prototype
+on the function. This will let GCC's value range optimization passes
+know that the return can never be negative, and can never be larger than
+u16. As recently discussed[1], this silences the following warning in
+GCC 12+:
+
+net/wireless/nl80211.c: In function 'nl80211_set_cqm_rssi.isra':
+net/wireless/nl80211.c:12892:17: warning: 'memcpy' specified bound 18446744073709551615 exceeds maximum object size 9223372036854775807 [-Wstringop-overflow=]
+12892 |                 memcpy(cqm_config->rssi_thresholds, thresholds,
+      |                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+12893 |                        flex_array_size(cqm_config, rssi_thresholds,
+      |                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+12894 |                                        n_thresholds));
+      |                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+A future change would be to clamp the subtraction to make sure it never
+wraps around if nla_len is somehow less than NLA_HDRLEN, which would
+have the additional benefit of being defensive in the face of nlattr
+corruption or logic errors.
