[PATCH v2] KVM: kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev() should never fail

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Thu Mar 23 2017 - 13:24:35 EST


No caller currently checks the return value of
kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev(). This is evil, as all callers silently go on
freeing their device. A stale reference will remain in the io_bus,
getting at least used again, when the iobus gets teared down on
kvm_destroy_vm() - leading to use after free errors.

There is nothing the callers could do, except retrying over and over
again.

So let's simply remove the bus altogether, print an error and make
sure no one can access this broken bus again (returning -ENOMEM on any
attempt to access it).

Based on kvm/queue, where we just got 2a108a4e7c1 ("KVM: x86: clear bus
pointer when destroyed"), which added a check we need here.

v1 -> v2:
- added a check in kvm_destroy_vm()
- added a check in virt/kvm/eventfd.c

Using 'git grep -C 4 "kvm->buses"' should help to find all users. The other
user in virt/kvm/eventfd.c should be fine.
