When trying to insert a 10MB kernel module kept in a virtiofs with cache

The warning happened as follow. In copy_args_to_argbuf(), virtiofs uses
kmalloc-ed memory as bound buffer for fuse args, but
fuse_get_user_pages() only limits the length of fuse arg by max_read or
max_write for IOV_KVEC io (e.g., kernel_read_file from finit_module()).
For virtiofs, max_read is UINT_MAX, so a big read request which is about
I find this part of the explanation a bit confusing. I guess you wanted
to write something like
fuse_direct_io() -> fuse_get_user_pages() is limited by
fc->max_write/fc->max_read and fc->max_pages. For virtiofs max_pages
does not apply as ITER_KVEC is used. As virtiofs sets fc->max_read to
UINT_MAX basically no limit is applied at all.
I also wonder if it wouldn't it make sense to set a sensible limit in
virtio_fs_ctx_set_defaults() instead of introducing a new variable?
Also, I guess the issue is kmalloc_array() in virtio_fs_enqueue_req?
Wouldn't it make sense to use kvm_alloc_array/kvfree in that function?
Thanks,
Bernd
10MB is passed to copy_args_to_argbuf(), kmalloc() is called in turn
with len=10MB, and triggers the warning in __alloc_pages():
WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(order > MAX_ORDER, gfp)).
A feasible solution is to limit the value of max_read for virtiofs, so
the length passed to kmalloc() will be limited. However it will affects
the max read size for ITER_IOVEC io and the value of max_write also needs
limitation. So instead of limiting the values of max_read and max_write,
introducing max_nopage_rw to cap both the values of max_read and
max_write when the fuse dio read/write request is initiated from kernel.
Considering that fuse read/write request from kernel is uncommon and to
decrease the demand for large contiguous pages, set max_nopage_rw as
256KB instead of KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE - 4096 or similar.
