[PATCH] x86/kvm: restrict kvm user region memory size

From: Sabyrzhan Tasbolatov
Date: Thu Oct 14 2021 - 08:02:08 EST


syzbot found WARNING in memslot_rmap_alloc[1] when
struct kvm_userspace_memory_region .memory_size is bigger than
0x40000000000, which is 4GB, e.g. KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE * 100 * PAGE_SIZE.

Here is the PoC to trigger the warning:

struct kvm_userspace_memory_region mem = {
.slot = 0,
.guest_phys_addr = 0,
/* + 0x100 extra to trigger kmalloc WARNING */
.memory_size = 0x40000000000 + 0x100,
.userspace_addr = 0,
};

ioctl(kvm_fd, KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION, &mem);

I couldn't find any relevant max constant to restrict unsigned long npages.
There might be another solution with chunking big portions of pages, but
there is already KVM_MAX_HUGEPAGE_LEVEL, though warning happens in
memslot_rmap_alloc() when level = 1, base_gfn = 0, e.g.
on the very first KVM_NR_PAGE_SIZES iteration.

This is, seems, valid for early Linux versions as well. Can't tell which is
exactly can be considered for git bisect.
Here is Commit d89cc617b954af ("KVM: Push rmap into kvm_arch_memory_slot")
for example, Linux 3.7.
