Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/hyperv: do not overwrite hc->ingpa for slow SIGNAL_EVENT hypercall
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 05:43:22 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260918094322.152817-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

When a guest makes a slow HVCALL_SIGNAL_EVENT hypercall with a connection ID
that is valid in userspace but not registered in the kernel conn_to_evt,
kvm_hvcall_signal_event() reads the connection ID and overwrites hc->ingpa.
However, hc->param still signals that the hypercall was a slow one, and
userspace will then treat the connection ID as an address.

Fixes: bd38b32053eb ("KVM: hyper-v: Collect hypercall params into struct")

        https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260918083322.C87F11F000FF@smtp.kernel.org/,
        but the issue is preexisting and unrelated to the patch that was being
        reviewed.
