Jonathan notes that cxl_cdat_get_length() and cxl_cdat_read_table() allocate 32 dwords for the DOE response even though it may be smaller. In the case of cxl_cdat_get_length(), only the second dword of the response is of interest (it contains the length). So reduce the allocation to 2 dwords and let DOE discard the remainder. In the case of cxl_cdat_read_table(), a correctly sized allocation for the full CDAT already exists. Let DOE write each table entry directly into that allocation. There's a snag in that the table entry is preceded by a Table Access Response Header (1 dword, CXL 3.0 table 8-14). Save the last dword of the previous table entry, let DOE overwrite it with the header of the next entry and restore it afterwards. The resulting CDAT is preceded by 4 unavoidable useless bytes. Increase the allocation size accordingly. The buffer overflow check in cxl_cdat_read_table() becomes unnecessary because the remaining bytes in the allocation are tracked in "length", which is passed to DOE and limits how many bytes it writes to the allocation. Additionally, cxl_cdat_read_table() bails out if the DOE response is truncated due to insufficient space.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
