[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] hw/ppc/spapr: Fix segfault when instantiating a 'pc-dimm' without 'memdev'
Posted by Thomas Huth 6 years, 8 months ago
QEMU currently crashes when trying to use a 'pc-dimm' on the pseries
machine without specifying its 'memdev' property. This happens because
pc_dimm_get_memory_region() does not check whether the 'memdev' property
has properly been set by the user. Looking closer at this function, it's
also obvious that it is using &error_abort to call another function - and
this is bad in a function that is used in the hot-plugging calling chain
since this can also cause QEMU to exit unexpectedly.

So let's fix these issues in a proper way now: Add a "Error **errp"
parameter to pc_dimm_get_memory_region() which we use in case the 'memdev'
property has not been set by the user, and which we can use instead of
the &error_abort, and change the callers of get_memory_region() to make
use of this "errp" parameter for proper error checking.

In place of checking if 'memdev' is already allocated/present while fetching 
'get_functions' every place. If 'memdev' is required for memory hotplug operation 
can we just put a check at some common place and don't start or instantiate if 
'memdev' is not present.

I can see:

'pc_dimm_realize' function checks for : in my case prints warning
and avoid Qemu to start.
...
...
if (!dimm->hostmem) {
        error_setg(errp, "'" PC_DIMM_MEMDEV_PROP "' property is not set");
        return;
    } 
...

Thanks,
Pankaj

That check unfortunately does not apply here: The crash happens in the
pre_plug() handler of the spapr machine, and this is called *before* the
realize function of the pc-dimm is called!

But even if we could find another common place where we could check
dimm->hostmem first, you still have the problem that
host_memory_backend_get_memory() could return an error and thus
pc_dimm_get_memory_region() still needs a way to fail gracefully during
the hotplug (or also hot-unplug) operation. So I think my patch is the
right way to go here.

o.k I guessed so.

Right. Thanks for the explanation.
