[Qemu-devel] [PULL 13/18] linux-user: init_guest_space: Correctly handle


From: Laurent Vivier
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL 13/18] linux-user: init_guest_space: Correctly handle guest_start in commpage initialization
Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2018 18:33:50 +0100

From: Luke Shumaker <address@hidden>

init_guest_commpage  needs to check if the mapped space, which ends at
real_start+real_size overlaps with where it needs to put the commpage,
which is (assuming sane qemu_host_page_size) guest_base + 0xffff000, where
guest_base is real_start - guest_start.

    [guest_base][       0xffff0000      ][commpage]
    [guest_base][guest_start][real_size] [commpage]
    [       real_start      ][real_size] [commpage]
                                        ^
                                 fail if this gap < 0

Since init_guest_commpage wants to do everything relative to guest_base
(rather than real_start), it obviously needs to be comparing 0xffff0000
against guest_start+real_size, not just real_size.

This bug has been present since 806d102141b99d4f1e55a97d68b7ea8c8ba3129f in
2012, but guest_start is usually 0, and prior to v2.11 real_size was
usually much smaller than 0xffff0000, so it was uncommon for it to have
made a difference.
