SubjectRe: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen-swiotlb: use actually allocated size on check physical contiguous
From
Date
Below module would help people reproduce the issue to understand the symptom:

https://github.com/finallyjustice/patchset/blob/master/xen-swiotlb-panic.c

In addition, on the xen hypervisor side, the memory_exchange() in xen hypervisor
does not check if the the pfn of input mfn belong to the same extent are
continuous in guest domain. As a result, the wrong page is stolen from guest domain.

Can we assume it is fine to not check if pfn of mfn are continuous in xen
hypervisor?

I think it is OK as the guest domain is responsible to maintain its memory
pages. xen is happy to serve any operations from guest domain, unless such
operation is harmful to xen hypervisor or other domains. In the worst cause, the
dom0 (or domU with passthrough) would panic itself.

496 static long memory_exchange(...
... ...
609 /* Steal a chunk's worth of input pages from the domain. */
610 for ( j = 0; j < (1UL << in_chunk_order); j++ )
611 {
612 if ( unlikely(__copy_from_guest_offset(
613 &gmfn, exch.in.extent_start, (i<<in_chunk_order)+j, 1)) )
614 {
615 rc = -EFAULT;
616 goto fail;
617 }
618

-------> not checking if the gfn of gmfn are continuous in below 'for loop' for
each extent.

619 for ( k = 0; k < (1UL << exch.in.extent_order); k++ )
620 {
621 #ifdef CONFIG_X86
622 p2m_type_t p2mt;
623
624 /* Shared pages cannot be exchanged */
625 mfn = get_gfn_unshare(d, gmfn + k, &p2mt);
626 if ( p2m_is_shared(p2mt) )
627 {
628 put_gfn(d, gmfn + k);
629 rc = -ENOMEM;
630 goto fail;
631 }
632 #else /* !CONFIG_X86 */
633 mfn = gfn_to_mfn(d, _gfn(gmfn + k));
634 #endif
635 if ( unlikely(!mfn_valid(mfn)) )
636 {
637 put_gfn(d, gmfn + k);
638 rc = -EINVAL;
639 goto fail;
640 }
641
642 page = mfn_to_page(mfn);
643

-----> As a result, the wrong page is stolen.

644 rc = steal_page(d, page, MEMF_no_refcount);
645 if ( unlikely(rc) )
646 {
647 put_gfn(d, gmfn + k);
648 goto fail;
649 }
650
651 page_list_add(page, &in_chunk_list);
652 put_gfn(d, gmfn + k);
653 }
654 }
