[PATCH v3] vhost: fix hung thread due to erroneous iotlb entries

From: Anirudh Rayabharam
Date: Sat Mar 05 2022 - 04:57:12 EST


In vhost_iotlb_add_range_ctx(), range size can overflow to 0 when
start is 0 and last is ULONG_MAX. One instance where it can happen
is when userspace sends an IOTLB message with iova=size=uaddr=0
(vhost_process_iotlb_msg). So, an entry with size = 0, start = 0,
last = ULONG_MAX ends up in the iotlb. Next time a packet is sent,
iotlb_access_ok() loops indefinitely due to that erroneous entry.

Call Trace:

Reported by syzbot at:

To fix this, do two things:

1. Return -EINVAL in vhost_chr_write_iter() when userspace asks to map
a range with size 0.
2. Fix vhost_iotlb_add_range_ctx() to handle the range [0, ULONG_MAX]
by splitting it into two entries.

Changes in v3:
1. Simplify expression since start is always 0
2. Fix checkpatch issue
3. Add Fixes tag

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20220224143320.3751-1-mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Changes in v2:
1. Don't reject range [0, ULONG_MAX], split it instead.
2. Validate msg.size in vhost_chr_write_iter().
