[Qemu-devel] [PULL 3/3] virtio-net: validate backend queue numbers against bus limitation

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

From: Jason Wang <address@hidden>

We don't validate the backend queue numbers against bus limitation,
this will easily crash qemu if it exceeds the limitation which will
hit the abort() in virtio_del_queue(). An example is trying to
starting a virtio-net device with 256 queues. E.g:

./qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev tap,id=hn0,queues=256 -device
virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0

Fixing this by doing the validation and fail early.
