[PATCH v2 0/2] virtio-i2c: Fix buffer handling

[Vincent Whitchurch]

This fixes a couple of bugs in the buffer handling in virtio-i2c which can
result in incorrect data on the I2C bus or memory corruption in the guest.

I tested this on UML (virtio-uml needs a bug fix too, I will sent that out
later) with the device implementation in rust-vmm/vhost-device.

Changes in v2:
- Added Acked-by and Fixes tags

[PATCH v2 1/2] i2c: virtio: disable timeout handling

[Vincent Whitchurch]

If a timeout is hit, it can result is incorrect data on the I2C bus
and/or memory corruptions in the guest since the device can still be
operating on the buffers it was given while the guest has freed them.

Here is, for example, the start of a slub_debug splat which was
triggered on the next transfer after one transfer was forced to timeout
by setting a breakpoint in the backend (rust-vmm/vhost-device):

 BUG kmalloc-1k (Not tainted): Poison overwritten

There is no simple fix for this (the driver would have to always create
bounce buffers and hold on to them until the device eventually returns
the buffers), so just disable the timeout support for now.

[PATCH v2 2/2] i2c: virtio: fix completion handling

[Vincent Whitchurch]

The driver currently assumes that the notify callback is only received
when the device is done with all the queued buffers.

However, this is not true, since the notify callback could be called
without any of the queued buffers being completed (for example, with
virtio-pci and shared interrupts) or with only some of the buffers being
completed (since the driver makes them available to the device in
multiple separate virtqueue_add_sgs() calls).

This can lead to incorrect data on the I2C bus or memory corruption in
the guest if the device operates on buffers which are have been freed by
the driver.  (The WARN_ON in the driver is also triggered.)

 	sys_ioctl+0xb18/0xb41

Fix this by calling virtio_get_buf() from the notify handler like other
virtio drivers and by actually waiting for all the buffers to be
completed.

For an eventual fix, I think you'd have to reset the device,
then you can get free up the outstanding buffers.
This has to be done carefully to make sure it does
not race with interrupts and/or new requests, typically
not easy.

Hmm the spec only says:

    A device MUST guarantee the requests in the virtqueue being processed in order
    if multiple requests are received at a time.

it does not seem to require using the buffers in order.
In any case, just waiting for all of them in a loop
seems cleaner and likely won't take longer ...

That wasn't my impression from the previous email thread.  Jie was OK
with doing it either way, and only disabling the timeout entirely makes
sense to me given the risk for memory corruption otherwise.

What "insanely high" timeout value do you have in mind and why would it
be acceptable to corrupt kernel memory after that time?

Wolfram applied the first patch, but not the second.

Wolfram, you can apply that one as well, it looks okay.

Is it? I read that the code only waits for the last request while
Michael suggested to wait for all of them? And he did not ack patch 2
while he acked patch 1. Did I misunderstand?

Okay, I misread it then.

To clarify, we should initialize the completion for each buffer and
wait for all of them to be completed before returning back to the

Lets wait for an update by Vincent for that then.

Thank you, I've fixed this in v3.
