Here's a patch that adds range checking to the sysfs mappings at least. This patch should catch the case where X (or some other process) tries to map beyond the specific BAR it's (supposedly) trying to access, making things safer in general. FWIW both my F9 and development versions of X start up fine with this patch applied. DaveM, will this work for you on sparc? It looked like your code was allowing bridge window mappings, but that behavior should be preserved as long as your bridge devices reflect their window sizes correctly in their pdev->resources? If we add similar code to the procfs stuff we wouldn't need to do any checking in the arches. diff --git a/drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c b/drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c index 9c71858..f4e8b4e 100644 --- a/drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c +++ b/drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c @@ -502,6 +502,8 @@ pci_mmap_resource(struct kobject *kobj, struct bin_attribute *attr, struct resource *res = (struct resource *)attr->private; enum pci_mmap_state mmap_type; resource_size_t start, end; + unsigned long map_len = vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start; + unsigned long map_offset = vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT; int i; for (i = 0; i < PCI_ROM_RESOURCE; i++) @@ -510,6 +512,13 @@ pci_mmap_resource(struct kobject *kobj, struct bin_attribute *attr, if (i >= PCI_ROM_RESOURCE) return -ENODEV; + /* + * Make sure the range the user is trying to map falls within + * the resource + */ + if (map_offset + map_len > pci_resource_len(pdev, i)) + return -EINVAL; + /* pci_mmap_page_range() expects the same kind of entry as coming * from /proc/bus/pci/ which is a "user visible" value.
