The expression depends on grant_table_version being appropriately set. Unfortunately, at init time grant_table_version will be 0. The GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME conditional expression checks for "grant_table_version == 1", and therefore returns the number of grant references per frame for v2. This causes gnttab_init() to allocate fewer pages for gnttab_list, as a frame can old half the number of v2 entries than v1 entries. After gnttab_resume() is called, grant_table_version is appropriately set. nr_init_grefs will then be miscalculated and gnttab_free_count will hold a value larger than the actual number of free gref entries. Correct. If a guest is heavily utilizing improperly initialized v1 grant tables, memory corruption can occur. One common manifestation is corruption of the vmalloc list, resulting in a poisoned pointer derefrence when accessing /proc/meminfo or /proc/vmallocinfo: [ 40.770064] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000200200001407 [ 40.770083] IP: [<ffffffff811a6fb0>] get_vmalloc_info+0x70/0x110 [ 40.770102] PGD 0 [ 40.770107] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [ 40.770114] CPU 10 This patch introduces a static variable, grefs_per_grant_frame, to cache the calculated value. gnttab_init() now calls gnttab_request_version() early so that grant_table_version and grefs_per_grant_frame can be appropriately set. A few BUG_ON()s have been added to prevent this type of bug from reoccurring in the future. Thanks for posting this.This is caused by not initializing grant_table_version in gnttab_init() before gnttab_resume(). How about only adding gnttab_request_version() and BUG_ON() to check grant_table_version in gnttab_init(), then no need to change GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME into grefs_per_grant_frame and add more BUG_ON() to check grefs_per_grant_frame? For example, in gnttab_init() .... +gnttab_request_version(); +BUG_ON(grant_table_version == 0); ....
