This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled xen/netfront: harden netfront against event channel storms to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: xen-netfront-harden-netfront-against-event-channel-storms.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Dec 20 02:39:52 PM CET 2021 From: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2021 08:24:08 +0100 Subject: xen/netfront: harden netfront against event channel storms From: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx> commit b27d47950e481f292c0a5ad57357edb9d95d03ba upstream. The Xen netfront driver is still vulnerable for an attack via excessive number of events sent by the backend. Fix that by using lateeoi event channels. For being able to detect the case of no rx responses being added while the carrier is down a new lock is needed in order to update and test rsp_cons and the number of seen unconsumed responses atomically.
