Subject[PATCH] vhost: return EINVAL if iovecs size does not match the message size
Date
We've failed to copy and process vhost_iotlb_msg so let userspace at
least know about it. For instance before these patch the code below runs
without any error:

int main()
{
struct vhost_msg msg;
struct iovec iov;
int fd;

fd = open("/dev/vhost-net", O_RDWR);
if (fd == -1) {
perror("open");
return 1;
}

iov.iov_base = &msg;
iov.iov_len = sizeof(msg)-4;

if (writev(fd, &iov,1) == -1) {
perror("writev");
return 1;
}

return 0;
}
