Thanks for the update, my comments below.
We meet a crash when running stress-ng:

Yes, this can overflow, will be changed in v3.
Our analysis reveals that the rom space's start address is...
0xffa0000007f30000, and size is 0x10000. Because of broken rom
space, before calling readl(pds), the pds's value is
0xffa0000007f3ffff, which is already pointed to the rom space
end, invoking readl() would read 4 bytes therefore cause an
out-of-bounds access and trigger a crash.
Fix this by adding image header and data structure checking.
static size_t pci_get_rom_size(struct pci_dev *pdev, void __iomem *rom,Theoretically this can overflow and become a false condition when should be
size_t size)
{
+ void __iomem *end = rom + size;
void __iomem *image;
int last_image;
unsigned int length;
image = rom;
do {
void __iomem *pds;
+
+ if (image + PCI_ROM_HEADER_SIZE >= end)
+ break;
+
/* Standard PCI ROMs start out with these bytes 55 AA */
if (readw(image) != 0xAA55) {
pci_info(pdev, "Invalid PCI ROM header signature: expecting 0xaa55, got %#06x\n",
readw(image));
break;
}
+
/* get the PCI data structure and check its "PCIR" signature */
pds = image + readw(image + 24);
+ if (pds + PCI_ROM_DATA_STRUCT_SIZE >= end)
+ break;
if (readl(pds) != 0x52494350) {
pci_info(pdev, "Invalid PCI ROM data signature: expecting 0x52494350, got %#010x\n",
readl(pds));
last_image = readb(pds + 21) & 0x80;
length = readw(pds + 16);
image += length * 512;
+
/* Avoid iterating through memory outside the resource window */
- if (image >= rom + size)
+ if (image + PCI_ROM_HEADER_SIZE >= end)
true. Check overflow.h if they have some helpers for wraparound checks.
So, first you need to validate the "end" and/or "size".Sure, I will modify the code to fix the overflow issue.
image = rom;
do {
void __iomem *pds;
if (size < PCI_ROM_HEADER_SIZE)
break;
...
size -= ... // not sure if we can change this variable, though
} while (...);
