Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virtio_vdpa: build affinity masks conditionally We try to build affinity mask via create_affinity_masks() unconditionally which may lead several issues:

  • the affinity mask is not used for parent without affinity support (only VDUSE support the affinity now)
  • the logic of create_affinity_masks() might not work for devices other than block. For example it's not rare in the networking device where the number of queues could exceed the number of CPUs. Such case breaks the current affinity logic which is based on group_cpus_evenly() who assumes the number of CPUs are not less than the number of groups. This can trigger a warning[1]: if (ret >= 0) WARN_ON(nr_present + nr_others < numgrps); Fixing this by only build the affinity masks only when
  • Driver passes affinity descriptor, driver like virtio-blk can make sure to limit the number of queues when it exceeds the number of CPUs
  • Parent support affinity setting config ops This help to avoid the warning. More optimizations could be done on top.

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's virtio vDPA driver. When the number of device queues exceeds the number of CPUs, the create_affinity_masks() function triggers a kernel warning in group_cpus_evenly(). This occurs because the affinity logic assumes CPUs are not fewer than queue groups, which doesn't hold for high-queue-count network devices.

Отчет

This issue triggers a kernel warning (WARN_ON), not a crash. It affects virtio vDPA devices, particularly network devices with many queues on systems with fewer CPUs. The warning is a debug assertion and does not compromise system stability or security in production kernels with panic_on_warn disabled.
