WARNING in iov_iter_revert
From: Gerb Stralko
Date: Wed May 30 2018 - 00:58:56 EST
Hello,
I'm in the process of fixing this bug
(https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=1339e0a805a4ddb11eaee6fb6b1bc905493ded77)
However, there are a couple things I'm trying to wrap my head around to understand and fix this issue properly.
I'm using the C reproducer from syzkaller[1] to trigger this issue which has been a huge help in learning the Linux kernel.
First in tls_sw.c in tls_sw_sendmsg we having the following:
`do_tcp_sendpages
`tls_push_sg
`tls_push_record
returns -EPIPE (-32) because sk->sk_shudown is set. See do_tcp_sendpages
in net/ipv4/tcp.c
Do we need to check for -EPIPE before continuing in tls_sw.c after
tls_push_record, for example:
if (ret == -EAGAIN || ret == -EPIPE)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
goto send_end;
If -EPIPE is valid and we don't need to check for that particular
condition
then calling iov_iter_revert might be wrong because of the second
argument:
ctx->sg_plaintext_size - orig_size
Because that statement will evaluate to -1 because ctx->sg_plaintext_size
has been set to zero from earlier when calling:
`free_sg
`tls_push_sg
And orig_size is set to 1 from the beginning of the while loop:
orig_size = ctx->sg_plaintext_size
So calling iov_iter_revert with the second argument being -1 will trigger
the warning in lib/iov_iter.c:iov_iter_revert:
if (WARN_ON(unroll > MAX_RW_COUNT))
return;
Am I correct in thinking EPIPE should be checked after returning from
tls_push_record? Or do we need to do some sanity checks on
sg_plaintext_size and orig_size before calling iov_iter_revert?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
