[PATCH v3] test-vmstate: fix bad GTree usage, use-after-free


From: Eric Auger
Subject: [PATCH v3] test-vmstate: fix bad GTree usage, use-after-free
Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2023 10:03:52 +0100

According to g_tree_foreach() documentation:
"The tree may not be modified while iterating over it (you can't
add/remove items)."

Since glib2 has removed its custom slice allocator and has switched
to using system malloc, a SIGSEGV can be observed while running
test-vmstate. With glibc + MALLOC_PERTURB_, malloc is able to detect
this kind of bugs. The relevant glib2 change that causes the problem
is:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/commit/45b5a6c1e56d5b73cc5ed798ef59a5601e56c170

Get rid of the node removal within the tree traversal. Also
check the trees have the same number of nodes before the actual
diff.

Fixes: 9a85e4b8f6 ("migration: Support gtree migration")

v2 -> v3:
- Enhance the commit message with Rich's explanations

v1 -> v2:
- respin of Marc-André's patch from Aug 2020, which can be
found at
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20200827161826.1165971-1-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com/
This fell through the cracks and now we hit a SIGSEGV
