[PATCH 1/9] virtio-blk: validate num_queues during probe

From: Jason Wang
Date: Mon Sep 13 2021 - 01:54:35 EST


If an untrusted device neogitates BLK_F_MQ but advertises a zero
num_queues, the driver may end up trying to allocating zero size
buffers where ZERO_SIZE_PTR is returned which may pass the checking
against the NULL. This will lead unexpected results.

Fixing this by using single queue if num_queues is zero.
