The issue is in drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_std_types_cq.c in the
UVERBS_HANDLER(UVERBS_METHOD_CQ_CREATE) function. We check that:
if (attr.comp_vector >= attrs->ufile->device->num_comp_vectors) {
But we don't check if "attr.comp_vector" is negative. It could
potentially lead to an array underflow. My concern would be where
cq->vector is used in the create_cq() function from the cxgb4 driver.
And really "attr.comp_vector" is appears as a u32 to user space so that's
the right type to use.

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.
