[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/21] block: Handle failure for potentially larg


From: Kevin Wolf
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/21] block: Handle failure for potentially large allocations
Date: Tue, 3 Jun 2014 15:10:41 +0200

A not too small part of the recent CVEs were DoS scenarios by letting
qemu abort with too large memory allocations. We generally "fixed" these
cases by setting some limits on values read from image files that
influence the size of allocations.

Because we still need to allow reading large images, this works only to
a certain degree and we still can get fairly large allocations, which
are not unthinkable to fail on some machines.

This series converts potentially large allocations to g_try_malloc() and
friends and handles failure gracefully e.g. by returning -ENOMEM. This
may cause hot-plug of a new disk or individual requests to fail, but the
VM as a whole can keep running.

v3:
- Changed qemu_try_blockalign() to only return NULL on failure. size = 0
  results in a small allocation now (size of the alignment) [Benoît]
- Patch 8 (nfs): Check for size != 0 before failing [Benoît]
- Patch 11 (qcow2):
  * Fix memory leak in alloc_refcount_block() [Max]
  * Report internal error for -ENOMEM in qcow2_check() [Max]
- Patch 15 (rbd): Build fix [Markus]

v2:
- Some more places check for size = 0 before they treat NULL as an error
- Patch 2 (block.c): Added missing NULL return check for
  qemu_try_blockalign() [Stefan]
- Patch 7 (iscsi): Fixed acb->task memory leak [Stefan]
- For conversions from g_malloc() to qemu_try_blockalign(), made sure to
  be consistent about pairing the latter with qemu_vfree() [Stefan]
