Are you positive that vringh_kiov_length() cannot be zero?  I looked at
the range_check() and there is no check for "if (*len == 0)".

    93
    94         to_pull = vringh_kiov_length(&vq->out_iov);
    95
    96         bytes = vringh_iov_pull_iotlb(&vq->vring, &vq->out_iov, &hdr,
    97                                       sizeof(hdr));
    98         if (bytes != sizeof(hdr)) {
    99                 dev_err(&vdpasim->vdpa.dev, "request out header too short\n");
    100                 return false;
    101         }

    103         to_pull -= bytes;

The same "bytes" is used for both to_pull and to_push.  In this
assignment it would only be used for the default case which prints an
error message.

Sorry, no.  This part is wrong.  "bytes" is not used for "to_push"
either here or below.  But I still am not sure "*len == 0" or how we

At line 84 we check that the last `in_iov` has at least one byte, so vringh_kiov_length(&vq->in_iov) cannot be zero.
It will return the sum of all lengths, so at least 1.

Maybe better to add a comment.

know that "to_push >= VIRTIO_BLK_ID_BYTES".

vringh_iov_push_iotlb() will push at least the bytes available in `in_iov`, if these are less, it will copy less bytes of VIRTIO_BLK_ID_BYTES.

Maybe here it would be better to add a check because the driver isn't following the specification.

And I'd avoid the subtraction highlighted by Smatch static checker.

Thanks for reporting. I'll send patches to fix these issues.
