Subject: [PATCH 5.3 08/21] xen-netfront: do not assume sk_buff_head list is empty in error handling
Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2019 00:03:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190919214702.452008775@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190919214657.842130855@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Dongli Zhang <dongli.zhang@oracle.com>

[ Upstream commit 00b368502d18f790ab715e055869fd4bb7484a9b ]

When skb_shinfo(skb) is not able to cache extra fragment (that is,
skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags >= MAX_SKB_FRAGS), xennet_fill_frags() assumes
the sk_buff_head list is already empty. As a result, cons is increased only
by 1 and returns to error handling path in xennet_poll().

However, if the sk_buff_head list is not empty, queue->rx.rsp_cons may be
set incorrectly. That is, queue->rx.rsp_cons would point to the rx ring
buffer entries whose queue->rx_skbs[i] and queue->grant_rx_ref[i] are
already cleared to NULL. This leads to NULL pointer access in the next
iteration to process rx ring buffer entries.

Below is how xennet_poll() does error handling. All remaining entries in
tmpq are accounted to queue->rx.rsp_cons without assuming how many
outstanding skbs are remained in the list.

 985 static int xennet_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
... ...
1032           if (unlikely(xennet_set_skb_gso(skb, gso))) {
1033                   __skb_queue_head(&tmpq, skb);
1034                   queue->rx.rsp_cons += skb_queue_len(&tmpq);
1035                   goto err;
1036           }

It is better to always have the error handling in the same way.
