[qemu-s390x] [PATCH] s390x/cpumodel: fix segmentation fault when baselin


From: David Hildenbrand
Subject: [qemu-s390x] [PATCH] s390x/cpumodel: fix segmentation fault when baselining models
Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2018 10:24:25 +0200

Usually, when baselining two CPU models, whereby one of them has base
CPU features disabled (e.g. z14-base,msa=off), we fallback to an older
model that did not have these features in the base model. We always try to
create a "sane" CPU model (as far as possible), and one part of it is that
removing base features is no good and to be avoided.

Now, if we disable base features that were part of a z900, we're out of
luck. We won't find a CPU model and QEMU will segfault. This is a
scenario that should never happen in real life, but it can be used to
crash QEMU.

So let's make something like this:

{ "execute": "query-cpu-model-baseline",
  "arguments" : { "modela": { "name": "z14-base", "props": {"esan3" : false}},
                  "modelb": { "name": "z14"}} }

Produce:

{"return": {"model": {"name": "z900-base", "props": {"esan3": false}}}}

Instead of segfaulting.

This could of course be improved (e.g. to z14-base,esan3=false), however
as this ususally won't happen, let's just avoid crashes.
