Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tools/virtio: vringh_test: check that a split ring must be a power of two
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 18:29:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111172947.3579982-3-stjepan.poljak@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111172947.3579982-1-stjepan.poljak@gmail.com>
vring_new_virtqueue() used to accept a split ring of any size, although
the ring is indexed with num - 1 as a mask. Check that it now refuses
one size short of RINGSIZE.
Without the preceding fix, vringh_test fails with:
vringh_test: vring_new_virtqueue accepted size 255
With it, vring_new_virtqueue() prints "Bad virtqueue length 255" and the
rest of the test runs as before.
