[PULL 09/13] linux-user: fix reserved_va page leak in do_munmap
Posted by Richard Henderson 4 weeks, 1 day ago
From: Matthew Lugg <mlugg@mlugg.co.uk>

The old logic had an off-by-one bug. For instance, assuming 4k pages on
host and guest, if 'len' is '4097' (indicating to unmap 2 pages), then
'last = start + 4096', so 'real_last = start + 4095', so ultimately
'real_len = 4096'. I do not believe this could cause any observable bugs
in guests, because `target_munmap` page-aligns the length it passes in.
However, calls to this function in `target_mremap` do not page-align the
length, so those calls could "drop" pages, leading to a part of the
reserved region becoming unmapped. At worst, a host allocation could get
mapped into that hole, then clobbered by a new guest mapping.
