This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled dm-integrity, dm-verity: reduce stack usage for recheck to the 6.6-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: dm-integrity-dm-verity-reduce-stack-usage-for-recheck.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 66ad2fbcdbeab0edfd40c5d94f32f053b98c2320 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2024 14:48:03 +0100 Subject: dm-integrity, dm-verity: reduce stack usage for recheck From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> commit 66ad2fbcdbeab0edfd40c5d94f32f053b98c2320 upstream. The newly added integrity_recheck() function has another larger stack allocation, just like its caller integrity_metadata(). When it gets inlined, the combination of the two exceeds the warning limit for 32-bit architectures and possibly risks an overflow when this is called from a deep call chain through a file system: drivers/md/dm-integrity.c:1767:13: error: stack frame size (1048) exceeds limit (1024) in 'integrity_metadata' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than] 1767 | static void integrity_metadata(struct work_struct *w) Since the caller at this point is done using its checksum buffer, just reuse the same buffer in the new function to avoid the double allocation. [Mikulas: add "noinline" to integrity_recheck and verity_recheck. These functions are only called on error, so they shouldn't bloat the stack frame or code size of the caller.] Fixes: c88f5e553fe3 ("dm-integrity: recheck the integrity tag after a failure") Fixes: 9177f3c0dea6 ("dm-verity: recheck the hash after a failure") Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/md/dm-integrity.c | 10 ++++------ drivers/md/dm-verity-target.c | 4 ++-- 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) --- a/drivers/md/dm-integrity.c +++ b/drivers/md/dm-integrity.c @@ -1701,14 +1701,13 @@ failed: get_random_bytes(result, ic->tag_size); } -static void integrity_recheck(struct dm_integrity_io *dio) +static noinline void integrity_recheck(struct dm_integrity_io *dio, char *checksum) { struct bio *bio = dm_bio_from_per_bio_data(dio, sizeof(struct dm_integrity_io)); struct dm_integrity_c *ic = dio->ic; struct bvec_iter iter; struct bio_vec bv; sector_t sector, logical_sector, area, offset; - char checksum_onstack[max_t(size_t, HASH_MAX_DIGESTSIZE, MAX_TAG_SIZE)]; struct page *page; void *buffer; @@ -1744,9 +1743,8 @@ static void integrity_recheck(struct dm_ goto free_ret; } - integrity_sector_checksum(ic, logical_sector, buffer, - checksum_onstack); - r = dm_integrity_rw_tag(ic, checksum_onstack, &dio->metadata_block, + integrity_sector_checksum(ic, logical_sector, buffer, checksum); + r = dm_integrity_rw_tag(ic, checksum, &dio->metadata_block, &dio->metadata_offset, ic->tag_size, TAG_CMP); if (r) { if (r > 0) { @@ -1861,7 +1859,7 @@ again: checksums_ptr - checksums, dio->op == REQ_OP_READ ?
