SubjectRe: [Patch v7 21/22] CIFS: SMBD: Upper layer performs SMB read via RDMA write through memory registration
From
Date
Replying to a very old message, but it's something we
discussed today at the IOLab event so to capture it:

It's unnecessary, and possibly leaking kernel information, to use
the IOVA as the offset of a memory region which is registered using
an FRWR. Because such regions are based on the exact bytes targeted
by the memory handle, the offset can be set to any value, typically
zero, but nearly arbitrary. As long as the (offset + length) does
not wrap or otherwise overflow, offset can be set to anything
convenient.

Since SMB reads and writes range up to 8MB, I'd suggest zeroing the
least significant 23 bits, which should guarantee it. The other 41
bits, party on. You could randomize them, pass some clever identifier
such as MID sequence, whatever.

Tom.
