 (CVE-2020-10717)

O-Subject: [RHEL-AV-8.2.1 qemu-kvm PATCH 3/7] virtiofsd: stay below fs.file-max sysctl value (CVE-2020-10717)
Bugzilla: 1817445
RH-Acked-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

From: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

The system-wide fs.file-max sysctl value determines how many files can
be open.  It defaults to a value calculated based on the machine's RAM
size.  Previously virtiofsd would try to set RLIMIT_NOFILE to 1,000,000
and this allowed the FUSE client to exhaust the number of open files
system-wide on Linux hosts with less than 10 GB of RAM!

Take fs.file-max into account when choosing the default RLIMIT_NOFILE
value.
