Starting qemu with the following arguments causes qemu to segfault:
... -device lsi,id=lsi0 -drive file=iscsi:<...>,format=raw,if=none,node-name=
iscsi1 -device scsi-block,bus=lsi0.0,id=<...>,drive=iscsi1
This patch fixes blk_aio_ioctl() so it does not pass stack addresses to
blk_aio_ioctl_entry() which may be invoked after blk_aio_ioctl() returns. More
details about the bug follow.
blk_aio_ioctl() invokes blk_aio_prwv() with blk_aio_ioctl_entry as the
coroutine parameter. blk_aio_prwv() ultimately calls aio_co_enter().
When blk_aio_ioctl() is executed from within a coroutine context (e.g.
iscsi_bh_cb()), aio_co_enter() adds the coroutine (blk_aio_ioctl_entry) to
the current coroutine's wakeup queue. blk_aio_ioctl() then returns.
When blk_aio_ioctl_entry() executes later, it accesses an invalid pointer:
....
BlkRwCo *rwco = &acb->rwco;
rwco->ret = blk_co_ioctl(rwco->blk, rwco->offset,
rwco->qiov->iov[0].iov_base); <--- qiov is
invalid here
...
In the case when blk_aio_ioctl() is called from a non-coroutine context,
blk_aio_ioctl_entry() executes immediately. But if bdrv_co_ioctl() calls
qemu_coroutine_yield(), blk_aio_ioctl() will return. When the coroutine
execution is complete, control returns to blk_aio_ioctl_entry() after the call
to blk_co_ioctl(). There is no invalid reference after this point, but the
function is still holding on to invalid pointers.
The fix is to change blk_aio_prwv() to accept a void pointer for the IO buffer
rather than a QEMUIOVector. blk_aio_prwv() passes this through in BlkRwCo and the
coroutine function casts it to QEMUIOVector or uses the void pointer directly.
