From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk Subject: [PATCH 2/2] xen/blkfront: Add BUG_ON to deal with misbehaving backends. Date: Fri, 25 May 2012 17:50:03 -0400 Message-ID: <1337982603-15692-3-git-send-email-konrad.wilk@oracle.com> References: <1337982603-15692-1-git-send-email-konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Return-path: In-Reply-To: <1337982603-15692-1-git-send-email-konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: jbeulich@suse.com, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, xen-devel@lists.xensource.com, axboe@kernel.dk Cc: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk List-Id: xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org Part of the ring structure is the 'id' field which is under control of the frontend. The frontend stamps it with "some" value (this some in this implementation being a value less than BLK_RING_SIZE), and when it gets a response expects said value to be in the response structure. We have a check for the id field when spolling new requests but not when de-spolling responses. We also add an extra check in add_id_to_freelist to make sure that the 'struct request' was not NULL - as we cannot pass a NULL to __blk_end_request_all, otherwise that crashes (and all the operations that the response is dealing with end up with __blk_end_request_all).
