[PATCH 1/7] vhost: fix missing vring call check on virtqueue access

Maxime Coquelin maxime.coquelin at redhat.com
Mon Sep 25 18:36:04 CEST 2023


Acquiring the access lock is not enough to ensure
virtqueue's metadata such as vring pointers are valid.

The access status must also be checked.

Fixes: c5736998305d ("vhost: fix missing virtqueue lock protection")
Fixes: 830f7e790732 ("vhost: add non-blocking API for posting interrupt")
