No - crashing the guest prohibits testing of the interface, and/or the guest realising it screwed up and dumping enough state to usefully debug what is going on. Furthermore, if userspace could trigger this path, we'd have to issue an XSA. Crashing the guest is almost never the right thing to do, and definitely not appropriate for a bad parameter. ~Andrew

The comment in the code suggests it is a bug in the OP-TEE/mediator: /* * This should never happen. We have a bug either in the * OP-TEE or in the mediator. */ So I am not sure why this would be the guest fault here. > > Furthermore, if userspace could trigger this path, we'd have to issue an > XSA. Why so? We don't issue XSAs for hypercalls issued through privcmd. While this is not hypercalls but close enough as this is using smc (Supervisor Mode Call) and hvc. Both are only accessible from kernel mode. > > Crashing the guest is almost never the right thing to do, and definitely > not appropriate for a bad parameter. AFAICT, the bad parameter is not from the guest but OP-TEE firmware (or mediator) itself. If OP-TEE/mediator is returning buggy value, then it may mean you break the isolation. So I don't think simply printing a message and continue is the right thing to do. Cheers,

Maybe we want to close the OPTEE interface for the guest, instead of crashing the whole VM. I.e. freeing the OPTEE context for the domain (d->arch.tee)? But I think the patch is good as it is honestly.

Moreover, optee driver in Linux kernel does not have similar check, so it will free this buffer without any complains. I'm just being overcautious here. Thus, I see no reason to crash the guest.

Thus, I see no reason to crash the > guest. My point is not whether the guest did anything bad but whether acknowledging a bug and continuing like nothing happened is the right thing to do. I can't judge whether the bug is critical enough. However I don't consider a single message on the console to be sufficient in a case of a bug. This is likely going to be missed and it may cause side-effect which may only be noticed a long time after. The amount of debugging required to figure out the original problem may be quite consequent. The first suggestion would be to expand your comment and explain why it is fine continue. Secondly, if it is consider safe to continue but still needs attention, then I would suggest to add a WARN() to make easier to spot in the log. Cheers,
Hi Paul, Julien, Volodymyr hasn't come back with an update to this patch, but I think it is good enough as-is as a bug fix and I would rather have it in its current form in 4.14 than not having it at all leaving the bug unfixed. I think Julien agrees. Paul, are you OK with this?

I will take my direction from the maintainers as to whether this fixes a critical issue and hence is a candidate for 4.14.

The approach is okayish but this is not ideal at least without any explanation why ignoring a potential bug is fine. I could settle with an expanded commit message for now. Therefore, I don't feel I should provide my Ack on this approach. That said, I am not the maintainers of this code. You are free to Ack and commit it. Cheers,

Normal World can share buffer with OP-TEE for two reasons: 1. Some client application wants to exchange data with TA 2. OP-TEE asks for shared buffer for internal needs The second case was handle more strictly than necessary: 1. In RPC request OP-TEE asks for buffer 2. NW allocates buffer and provides it via RPC response 3. Xen pins pages and translates data 4. Xen provides buffer to OP-TEE 5. OP-TEE uses it 6. OP-TEE sends request to free the buffer 7. NW frees the buffer and sends the RPC response 8. Xen unpins pages and forgets about the buffer The problem is that Xen should forget about buffer in between stages 6 and 7. I.e. the right flow should be like this: 6. OP-TEE sends request to free the buffer 7. Xen unpins pages and forgets about the buffer 8. NW frees the buffer and sends the RPC response This is because OP-TEE internally frees the buffer before sending the "free SHM buffer" request. So we have no reason to hold reference for this buffer anymore. Moreover, in multiprocessor systems NW have time to reuse buffer cookie for another buffer. Xen complained about this and denied the new buffer registration. I have seen this issue while running tests on iMX SoC. So, this patch basically corrects that behavior by freeing the buffer earlier, when handling RPC return from OP-TEE.
