This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled block: ublk: extending queue_size to fix overflow to the 6.1-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: block-ublk-extending-queue_size-to-fix-overflow.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 0fce056679bf830de1c3cfedf40ed027240fe5a0 Author: Liu Xiaodong <xiaodong.liu@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jan 31 02:05:52 2023 -0500 block: ublk: extending queue_size to fix overflow [ Upstream commit 29baef789c838bd5c02f50c88adbbc6b955aaf61 ] When validating drafted SPDK ublk target, in a case that assigning large queue depth to multiqueue ublk device, ublk target would run into a weird incorrect state. During rounds of review and debug, An overflow bug was found in ublk driver. In ublk_cmd.h, UBLK_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH is 4096 which means each ublk queue depth can be set as large as 4096. But when setting qd for a ublk device, sizeof(struct ublk_queue) + depth * sizeof(struct ublk_io) will be larger than 65535 if qd is larger than 2728. Then queue_size is overflowed, and ublk_get_queue() references a wrong pointer position. The wrong content of ublk_queue elements will lead to out-of-bounds memory access. Extend queue_size in ublk_device as "unsigned int".
