Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Fix iova-to-va conversion for MR page sizes != PAGE_SIZE
The current implementation incorrectly handles memory regions (MRs) with
page sizes different from the system PAGE_SIZE. The core issue is that
rxe_set_page() is called with mr->page_size step increments, but the
page_list stores individual struct page pointers, each representing
PAGE_SIZE of memory.
ib_sg_to_page() has ensured that when i>=1 either
a) SG[i-1].dma_end and SG[i].dma_addr are contiguous
or
b) SG[i-1].dma_end and SG[i].dma_addr are mr->page_size aligned.
This leads to incorrect iova-to-va conversion in scenarios:
1) page_size < PAGE_SIZE (e.g., MR: 4K, system: 64K):
ibmr->iova = 0x181800
sg[0]: dma_addr=0x181800, len=0x800
sg[1]: dma_addr=0x173000, len=0x1000
Access iova = 0x181800 + 0x810 = 0x182010
Expected VA: 0x173010 (second SG, offset 0x10)
Before fix:
- index = (0x182010 >> 12) - (0x181800 >> 12) = 1
- page_offset = 0x182010 & 0xFFF = 0x10
- xarray[1] stores system page base 0x170000
- Resulting VA: 0x170000 + 0x10 = 0x170010 (wrong)
2) page_size > PAGE_SIZE (e.g., MR: 64K, system: 4K):
ibmr->iova = 0x18f800
sg[0]: dma_addr=0x18f800, len=0x800
sg[1]: dma_addr=0x170000, len=0x1000
Access iova = 0x18f800 + 0x810 = 0x190010
Expected VA: 0x170010 (second SG, offset 0x10)
Before fix:
- index = (0x190010 >> 16) - (0x18f800 >> 16) = 1
- page_offset = 0x190010 & 0xFFFF = 0x10
- xarray[1] stores system page for dma_addr 0x170000
- Resulting VA: system page of 0x170000 + 0x10 = 0x170010 (wrong)
Yi Zhang reported a kernel panic[1] years ago related to this defect.
Solution:
1. Replace xarray with pre-allocated rxe_mr_page array for sequential
indexing (all MR page indices are contiguous)
2. Each rxe_mr_page stores both struct page* and offset within the
system page
3. Handle MR page_size != PAGE_SIZE relationships:
- page_size > PAGE_SIZE: Split MR pages into multiple system pages
- page_size <= PAGE_SIZE: Store offset within system page
4. Add boundary checks and compatibility validation
This ensures correct iova-to-va conversion regardless of MR page size
and system PAGE_SIZE relationship, while improving performance through
array-based sequential access.
Tests on 4K and 64K PAGE_SIZE hosts:
- rdma-core/pytests
$ ./build/bin/run_tests.py --dev eth0_rxe
- blktest:
$ TIMEOUT=30 QUICK_RUN=1 USE_RXE=1 NVMET_TRTYPES=rdma ./check nvme srp rnbd
