      xen/pciback: For XEN_PCI_OP_disable_msi[|x] only disable if device has MSI(X) enabled. · 7cfb905b
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk authored
      Otherwise just continue on, returning the same values as
      previously (return of 0, and op->result has the PIRQ value).
      
      This does not change the behavior of XEN_PCI_OP_disable_msi[|x].
      
      The pci_disable_msi or pci_disable_msix have the checks for
      msi_enabled or msix_enabled so they will error out immediately.
      
      However the guest can still call these operations and cause
      us to disable the 'ack_intr'. That means the backend IRQ handler
      for the legacy interrupt will not respond to interrupts anymore.
      
      This will lead to (if the device is causing an interrupt storm)
      for the Linux generic code to disable the interrupt line.
      
      Naturally this will only happen if the device in question
      is plugged in on the motherboard on shared level interrupt GSI.

      xen/pciback: Do not install an IRQ handler for MSI interrupts. · a396f3a2
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk authored
      Otherwise an guest can subvert the generic MSI code to trigger
      an BUG_ON condition during MSI interrupt freeing:
      
       for (i = 0; i < entry->nvec_used; i++)
              BUG_ON(irq_has_action(entry->irq + i));
      
      Xen PCI backed installs an IRQ handler (request_irq) for
      the dev->irq whenever the guest writes PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY
      (or PCI_COMMAND_IO) to the PCI_COMMAND register. This is
      done in case the device has legacy interrupts the GSI line
      is shared by the backend devices.
      
      To subvert the backend the guest needs to make the backend
      to change the dev->irq from the GSI to the MSI interrupt line,
      make the backend allocate an interrupt handler, and then command
      the backend to free the MSI interrupt and hit the BUG_ON.
      
      Since the backend only calls 'request_irq' when the guest
      writes to the PCI_COMMAND register the guest needs to call
      XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msi before any other operation. This will
      cause the generic MSI code to setup an MSI entry and
      populate dev->irq with the new PIRQ value.
      
      Then the guest can write to PCI_COMMAND PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY
      and cause the backend to setup an IRQ handler for dev->irq
      (which instead of the GSI value has the MSI pirq). See
      'xen_pcibk_control_isr'.
      
      Then the guest disables the MSI: XEN_PCI_OP_disable_msi
      which ends up triggering the BUG_ON condition in 'free_msi_irqs'
      as there is an IRQ handler for the entry->irq (dev->irq).
      
      Note that this cannot be done using MSI-X as the generic
      code does not over-write dev->irq with the MSI-X PIRQ values.
      
      The patch inhibits setting up the IRQ handler if MSI or
      MSI-X (for symmetry reasons) code had been called successfully.
      
      P.S.
      Xen PCIBack when it sets up the device for the guest consumption
      ends up writting 0 to the PCI_COMMAND (see xen_pcibk_reset_device).
      XSA-120 addendum patch removed that - however when upstreaming said
      addendum we found that it caused issues with qemu upstream. That
      has now been fixed in qemu upstream.

      xen/pciback: Return error on XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msix when device has MSI or MSI-X enabled · 5e0ce145
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk authored
      The guest sequence of:
      
        a) XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msix
        b) XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msix
      
      results in hitting an NULL pointer due to using freed pointers.
      
      The device passed in the guest MUST have MSI-X capability.
      
      The a) constructs and SysFS representation of MSI and MSI groups.
      The b) adds a second set of them but adding in to SysFS fails (duplicate entry).
      'populate_msi_sysfs' frees the newly allocated msi_irq_groups (note that
      in a) pdev->msi_irq_groups is still set) and also free's ALL of the
      MSI-X entries of the device (the ones allocated in step a) and b)).
      
      The unwind code: 'free_msi_irqs' deletes all the entries and tries to
      delete the pdev->msi_irq_groups (which hasn't been set to NULL).
      However the pointers in the SysFS are already freed and we hit an
      NULL pointer further on when 'strlen' is attempted on a freed pointer.
      
      The patch adds a simple check in the XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msix to guard
      against that. The check for msi_enabled is not stricly neccessary.

      xen/pciback: Save xen_pci_op commands before processing it · 8135cf8b
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk authored
      Double fetch vulnerabilities that happen when a variable is
      fetched twice from shared memory but a security check is only
      performed the first time.
      
      The xen_pcibk_do_op function performs a switch statements on the op->cmd
      value which is stored in shared memory. Interestingly this can result
      in a double fetch vulnerability depending on the performed compiler
      optimization.
      
      This patch fixes it by saving the xen_pci_op command before
      processing it. We also use 'barrier' to make sure that the
      compiler does not perform any optimization.

      xen-blkback: read from indirect descriptors only once · 18779149
      Roger Pau Monné authored
      Since indirect descriptors are in memory shared with the frontend, the
      frontend could alter the first_sect and last_sect values after they have
      been validated but before they are recorded in the request.  This may
      result in I/O requests that overflow the foreign page, possibly
      overwriting local pages when the I/O request is executed.
      
      When parsing indirect descriptors, only read first_sect and last_sect
      once.

      xen-netback: use RING_COPY_REQUEST() throughout · 68a33bfd
      David Vrabel authored
      Instead of open-coding memcpy()s and directly accessing Tx and Rx
      requests, use the new RING_COPY_REQUEST() that ensures the local copy
      is correct.
      
      This is more than is strictly necessary for guest Rx requests since
      only the id and gref fields are used and it is harmless if the
      frontend modifies these.

      xen: Add RING_COPY_REQUEST() · 454d5d88
      David Vrabel authored
      Using RING_GET_REQUEST() on a shared ring is easy to use incorrectly
      (i.e., by not considering that the other end may alter the data in the
      shared ring while it is being inspected).  Safe usage of a request
      generally requires taking a local copy.
      
      Provide a RING_COPY_REQUEST() macro to use instead of
      RING_GET_REQUEST() and an open-coded memcpy().  This takes care of
      ensuring that the copy is done correctly regardless of any possible
      compiler optimizations.
      
      Use a volatile source to prevent the compiler from reordering or
      omitting the copy.

      xen/evtchn: dynamically grow pending event channel ring · 86200154
      David Vrabel authored
      If more than 1024 event channels are bound to a evtchn device then it
      possible (even with well behaved applications) for the ring to
      overflow and events to be lost (reported as an -EFBIG error).
      
      Dynamically increase the size of the ring so there is always enough
      space for all bound events.  Well behaved applicables that only unmask
      events after draining them from the ring can thus no longer lose
      events.
      
      However, an application could unmask an event before draining it,
      allowing multiple entries per port to accumulate in the ring, and a
      overflow could still occur.  So the overflow detection and reporting
      is retained.
      
      The ring size is initially only 64 entries so the common use case of
      an application only binding a few events will use less memory than
      before.  The ring size may grow to 512 KiB (enough for all 2^17
      possible channels).  This order 7 kmalloc() may fail due to memory
      fragmentation, so we fall back to trying vmalloc().

      xen/events: Always allocate legacy interrupts on PV guests · b4ff8389
      Boris Ostrovsky authored
      After commit 8c058b0b ("x86/irq: Probe for PIC presence before

      preallocate descriptors for legacy interrupts if PIC does not
      exist, which is the case for Xen PV guests.
      
      Therefore we may need to allocate those descriptors ourselves.

      xen/gntdev: Grant maps should not be subject to NUMA balancing · 9c17d965
      Boris Ostrovsky authored
      Doing so will cause the grant to be unmapped and then, during
      fault handling, the fault to be mistakenly treated as NUMA hint
      fault.
      
      In addition, even if those maps could partcipate in NUMA
      balancing, it wouldn't provide any benefit since we are unable
      to determine physical page's node (even if/when VNUMA is
      implemented).
      
      Marking grant maps' VMAs as VM_IO will exclude them from being
      part of NUMA balancing.
