This struct is wrong.. the kernel does this:

        if (context) {
                if ((hr_dev->caps.flags & HNS_ROCE_CAP_FLAG_RECORD_DB) &&
                                        (udata->outlen == sizeof(resp))) {
                        hr_cq->db_en = 1;
                        resp.cqn = hr_cq->cqn;
                        resp.cap_flags |= HNS_ROCE_SUPPORT_CQ_RECORD_DB;
                        ret = ib_copy_to_udata(udata, &resp, sizeof(resp));
                } else
                        ret = ib_copy_to_udata(udata, &hr_cq->cqn, sizeof(u64));

So 'cqn' should be a u64, it is a mistake in the userspace to have
used a u32 here.

You could correct it, but it would need to be used as u32
consistently.

Instead I recommend changing the above struct (in user and kernel) to
simply:

struct hns_roce_ib_create_cq_resp {
	__u64 cqn;       /* Only 32 bits used, 64 for compat */
	__u64 cap_flags;
};

And change the kernel to simply do:

        if (context) {
                resp.cqn = hr_cq->cqn;
                if ((hr_dev->caps.flags & HNS_ROCE_CAP_FLAG_RECORD_DB) &&
                                        (udata->outlen == sizeof(resp))) {
                        hr_cq->db_en = 1;
                        resp.cap_flags |= HNS_ROCE_SUPPORT_CQ_RECORD_DB;
                }
                ret = ib_copy_to_udata(udata, &resp, sizeof(resp));

ib_copy_to_udata() will do the right thing.

Please send a patch for this immediately before this gets into a
released kernel..

Also all these tests:

                if ((hr_dev->caps.flags & HNS_ROCE_CAP_FLAG_RECORD_DB) &&
                                        (udata->outlen == sizeof(resp)))

Should probably be:

                if ((hr_dev->caps.flags & HNS_ROCE_CAP_FLAG_RECORD_DB) &&
                                        (udata->outlen >= sizeof(resp)))

Arguably a flag should have been added to the request for this new
behavior though, as is will limit what you can do in future.
