virt: acrn: Remove unused list 'acrn_irqfd_clients'

2025-05-01T15:57:24+00:00

It doesn't look like this was ever used.

Build tested only.

drivers: virt: acrn: hsm: Use kzalloc to avoid info leak in pmcmd_ioctl

2025-02-20T14:20:34+00:00

In the "pmcmd_ioctl" function, three memory objects allocated by
kmalloc are initialized by "hcall_get_cpu_state", which are then
copied to user space. The initializer is indeed implemented in
"acrn_hypercall2" (arch/x86/include/asm/acrn.h). There is a risk of
information leakage due to uninitialized bytes.

assorted variants of irqfd setup: convert to CLASS(fd)

2024-11-03T06:28:07+00:00

in all of those failure exits prior to fdget() are plain returns and
the only thing done after fdput() is (on failure exits) a kfree(),
which can be done before fdput() just fine.

NOTE: in acrn_irqfd_assign() 'fail:' failure exit is wrong for
eventfd_ctx_fileget() failure (we only want fdput() there) and once
we stop doing that, it doesn't need to check if eventfd is NULL or
ERR_PTR(...) there.

NOTE: in privcmd we move fdget() up before the allocation - more
to the point, before the copy_from_user() attempt.

introduce fd_file(), convert all accessors to it.

2024-08-13T02:00:43+00:00

	For any changes of struct fd representation we need to
turn existing accesses to fields into calls of wrappers.
Accesses to struct fd::flags are very few (3 in linux/file.h,
1 in net/socket.c, 3 in fs/overlayfs/file.c and 3 more in
explicit initializers).
	Those can be dealt with in the commit converting to
new layout; accesses to struct fd::file are too many for that.
	This commit converts (almost) all of f.file to
fd_file(f).  It's not entirely mechanical ('file' is used as
a member name more than just in struct fd) and it does not
even attempt to distinguish the uses in pointer context from
those in boolean context; the latter will be eventually turned
into a separate helper (fd_empty()).

	NOTE: mass conversion to fd_empty(), tempting as it
might be, is a bad idea; better do that piecewise in commit
that convert from fdget...() to CLASS(...).

... and centralize the VM_IO/VM_PFNMAP sanity check in there. We'll

For generic_access_phys(), we might now check multiple times: nothing to

drivers/virt/acrn: fix PFNMAP PTE checks in acrn_vm_ram_map()

2024-05-06T00:53:27+00:00

Patch series "mm: follow_pte() improvements and acrn follow_pte() fixes".

Patch #1 fixes a bunch of issues I spotted in the acrn driver.  It
compiles, that's all I know.  I'll appreciate some review and testing from
acrn folks.

Patch #2+#3 improve follow_pte(), passing a VMA instead of the MM, adding
more sanity checks, and improving the documentation.  Gave it a quick test
on x86-64 using VM_PAT that ends up using follow_pte().


This patch (of 3):

We currently miss handling various cases, resulting in a dangerous
follow_pte() (previously follow_pfn()) usage.

(1) We're not checking PTE write permissions.

Maybe we should simply always require pte_write() like we do for
pin_user_pages_fast(FOLL_WRITE)? Hard to tell, so let's check for
ACRN_MEM_ACCESS_WRITE for now.

(2) We're not rejecting refcounted pages.

As we are not using MMU notifiers, messing with refcounted pages is
dangerous and can result in use-after-free. Let's make sure to reject them.

(3) We are only looking at the first PTE of a bigger range.

We only lookup a single PTE, but memmap->len may span a larger area.
Let's loop over all involved PTEs and make sure the PFN range is
actually contiguous. Reject everything else: it couldn't have worked
either way, and rather made use access PFNs we shouldn't be accessing.

virt: acrn: stop using follow_pfn

2024-04-26T03:56:12+00:00

Patch series "remove follow_pfn".

This series open codes follow_pfn in the only remaining caller, although
the code there remains questionable.  It then also moves follow_phys into
the only user and simplifies it a bit.


This patch (of 3):

Switch from follow_pfn to follow_pte so that we can get rid of follow_pfn.
Note that this doesn't fix any of the pre-existing raciness and lack of
permission checking in the code.
