[PATCH v2] hw/virtio: Fix check available index on virtio loading
Posted by Wafer 1 year, 1 month ago 
From: Wafer Xie <wafer@jaguarmicro.com>

The virtio-1.2 specification writes:

2.7.6 The Virtqueue Available Ring:
"idx field indicates where the driver would put the next descriptor entry
in the ring (modulo the queue size). This starts at 0, and increases"

The idx will increase from 0 to 0xFFFF and repeat,
So idx may be less than last_avail_idx.

Fixes: 258dc7c96b ("virtio: sanity-check available index")

I don't get this change. If that happens the driver went buggy or
malicious and the next check nheads > vring.num should mark the vq as
buggy, isn't it?

During the migration process, let's assume a scenario where:
The depth of the avail ring is 0x10000, last_avail_index is 0xFFF0, and avail->idx is 0xFFFFF.
At this point, the guest VM driver sends a virtio data packet, and avail->idx is updated to 0x0.
The migration occurs, and last_avail_index is sent to the target QEMU. 
During the loading process of the target QEMU, it will check both last_avail_index and avail->idx. 
In this case, last_avail_index is greater than avail->idx.

But (uint16_t)0x0 - (uint16_t)0xFFF0 is well defined to 0x10. So
nheads value is correct, isn't it?
