From 3741ae811d3287e34779a307480dfb3e93dbb451 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git) Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2014 09:49:51 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Allow mismatched virtio config-len RH-Author: Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git) Message-id: <1404121791-14438-2-git-send-email-dgilbert@redhat.com> Patchwork-id: 59405 O-Subject: [RHEL-7.1 qemu-kvm PATCH 1/1] Allow mismatched virtio config-len Bugzilla: 1113009 RH-Acked-by: Michael S. Tsirkin RH-Acked-by: Juan Quintela RH-Acked-by: Paolo Bonzini From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" Commit 'virtio: validate config_len on load' restricted config_len loaded from the wire to match the config_len that the device had. Unfortunately, there are cases where this isn't true, the one we found it on was the wce addition in virtio-blk. Allow mismatched config-lengths: *) If the version on the wire is shorter then fine *) If the version on the wire is longer, load what we have space for and skip the rest. (This is mst@redhat.com's rework of what I originally posted) Signed-off-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert Reviewed-by: Michael S. Tsirkin Signed-off-by: Michael S.
