[2/4] vfio: use __aligned_u64 in struct vfio_device_gfx_plane_info
Commit Message
The memory layout of struct vfio_device_gfx_plane_info is
architecture-dependent due to a u64 field and a struct size that is not
a multiple of 8 bytes:
- On x86_64 the struct size is padded to a multiple of 8 bytes.
- On x32 the struct size is only a multiple of 4 bytes, not 8.
- Other architectures may vary.
Use __aligned_u64 to make memory layout consistent. This reduces the
chance of holes that result in an information leak and the chance that
32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel breakage.
This patch increases the struct size on x32 but this is safe because of
the struct's argsz field. The kernel may grow the struct as long as it
still supports smaller argsz values from userspace (e.g. applications
compiled against older kernel headers).

I didn't quite get this. The leak example [1] from your earlier fix is really
not caused by the use of __u64. Instead it's a counter example that on
x32 there is no hole with 4byte alignment for __u64.
I'd remove the hole part and just keep the compat reason.

Is there a case where minsz could be greater than sizeof(dmabuf)?

Okay.

Thanks for spotting this, it's a bug in the patch. It should be
min(dmabuf.argsz, sizeof(dmabuf)).

Sounds good.

I'll fix this in the next revision (it should be dmabuf.argsz).

Isn't the hole likely to cause an information leak?
Forcing it to be there doesn't make any difference.
I'd add an explicit pad as well.
It is a shame there isn't an __attribute__(()) to error padded structures.

Doesn't changing the offset of later fields break compatibility?
The size field (probably) only lets you extend the structure.
Oh, for sanity do min(variable, constant).
