Subject: [PATCH 0/2] nvmet-pci: validate endpoint queue IDs
Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2026 22:30:13 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260710023015.3744082-1-michael.bommarito@gmail.com> (raw)
A PCI root-complex host can crash an NVMe PCI endpoint target with
malformed queue IDs. The endpoint transport allocates its SQ/CQ arrays
using ctrl->nr_queues, which is capped by endpoint interrupt capacity,
but the common target admin validation only checks queue IDs against
subsys->max_qid. A host can therefore submit Create/Delete SQ/CQ commands
with qids that pass the common checks yet index past the smaller endpoint
transport arrays.
Patch 1 rejects queue IDs outside ctrl->nr_queues before the endpoint
SQ/CQ arrays are indexed. Patch 2 adds same-translation-unit KUnit/KASAN
coverage: a valid queue ID that must still be accepted and the
out-of-range Create/Delete SQ/CQ cases that must now be rejected.
Reproduced with the KUnit/KASAN test: the stock Create CQ path faults in
nvmet_pci_epf_create_cq() after nvmet_check_io_cqid() accepts qid 2 with
max_qid 8 and nr_queues 2; patched rejects the malformed cases while the
benign control still passes.
