Subject: [bug report] null_blk: return fixed zoned reads > write pointer
Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2019 16:06:24 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191023130623.GA3196@mwanda> (raw)

Hello Ajay Joshi,

The patch dd85b4922de1: "null_blk: return fixed zoned reads > write
pointer" from Oct 17, 2019, leads to the following static checker
warning:

	drivers/block/null_blk_zoned.c:91 null_zone_valid_read_len()
	warn: uncapped user index 'dev->zones[null_zone_no(dev, sector)]'

drivers/block/null_blk_zoned.c
    87  size_t null_zone_valid_read_len(struct nullb *nullb,
    88                                  sector_t sector, unsigned int len)
    89  {
    90          struct nullb_device *dev = nullb->dev;
    91          struct blk_zone *zone = &dev->zones[null_zone_no(dev, sector)];
                                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    92          unsigned int nr_sectors = len >> SECTOR_SHIFT;
    93  
    94          /* Read must be below the write pointer position */
    95          if (zone->type == BLK_ZONE_TYPE_CONVENTIONAL ||
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    96              sector + nr_sectors <= zone->wp)
    97                  return len;
    98  
    99          if (sector > zone->wp)
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Smatch complains about "sector" being from the untrusted all the time
and I kind of just ignore it these days.  But here it looks like we're
checking "sector" after we already used it so that seems very suspicious.
It feels like "sector > zone->wp" should come at the very start of the
function.

   100                  return 0;
   101  
   102          return (zone->wp - sector) << SECTOR_SHIFT;
   103  }

regards,
dan carpenter
