Subject: [patch v2] infiniband: uverbs: limit the number of entries
Date: Fri, 8 Oct 2010 16:25:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101008142557.GP11681@bicker> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <AANLkTin5zou2JHsdDyhGESuxyPonOs3kLo9Th0vg-kd8-JsoAwUIsXosN+BqQ9rBEUg@public.gmane.org>


If we don't limit cmd.ne then the multiplications can overflow.  This
will allocate a small amount of RAM successfully for the "resp" and
"wc" buffers.  The heap will get corrupted when we call ib_poll_cq().

Documentation/infiniband/user_verbs.txt suggests this function is meant
for unprivileged access.

I chose to limit the number of entries to 500.  That limits the
allocations to 26 kb of RAM at the most.

Also we don't necessarily fill the "resp" buffer so I changed the
kmalloc() to a kzalloc() to avoid an information leak.  And I changed
the wc allocation to kcalloc() as a cleanup.
