[PATCH] x86/traps: fix an off-by-one error
Posted by Hongyan Xia 3 years, 11 months ago
From: Hongyan Xia <hongyxia@amazon.com>

stack++ can go into the next page and unmap_domain_page() will unmap the
wrong one, causing mapcache and memory corruption. Fix.

This is found with direct map removal. For now, the idle domain does not
have a mapcache and uses the direct map, so no errors will occur.

With this I think you want to change the whole construct here to

    if ( stack_page )
        unmap_domain_page(stack_page);

i.e. with the then no longer relevant BUILD_BUG_ON() also dropped.

What's more important though - please also fix the same issue in
compat_show_guest_stack(). Unless I'm mistaken of course, in which
case it would be nice if the description could mention why the
other similar function isn't affected.

I wonder if such a construct is better with UNMAP_DOMAIN_PAGE(), since
it deals with NULL and will nullify it to prevent misuse.

Compat suffers from the same problem. Thanks for pointing that out.

In the case here I think I agree. For the future may I ask that
you wait with sending a new version until the discussion on the
previous one has settled?
