Well... I could have read the spec wrong as well. But after reading very
carefully I think this is actually correct.

Where is this quote from? I don't see that in the spec.

My understanding is that the output payload is only limited by the Payload Size
reported in the Mailbox Capability Register.Payload Size. (Section 8.2.8.4.3)

This can be up to 1MB. So the device could fill up to 1MB's worth of Event
Records while still being in compliance. The generic mailbox code in the
driver caps the data based on the size passed into cxl_mbox_send_cmd() however,
the number of records reported is not changed.

I don't think this is out of spec unless the device is trying to write more
than 1MB and I think the core mailbox code will scream about that.

I don't think so. The only value passed to the device is the _input_ payload
size. The output payload size is not passed to the device and is not included
in the Get Event Records Input Payload. (Table 8-49)

So my previous code was wrong. Here is an example I think which is within the
spec but would result in the more records flag not being set.

Device log depth == 10
nr log entries == 7
nr log entries in 1MB ~= (1M - hdr size) / 128 ~= 8000

Device sets Output Payload.Event Record Count == 7 (which is < 8000). Common
mailbox code truncates that to 3. More Event Records == 0 because it sent all
7 that it had.

This code will clear 3 and read again 2 more times.

Am I reading that wrong?

Yea I'll adjust,
