PATCH 1/1 shared/gatt-db: Fix munmap_chunk invalid pointer

PTS test GATT/CL/GAD/BV-03-C published a service starting at handle 0xfffd and ending at 0xffff.
This resets the next_handle to 0 in gatt_db_insert_service() instead of setting it to 0x10000. Other services are added later.
This could end-up by a crash in db_hash_update() if not enough space has been allocated for hash.iov and some entries are overwritten.

PTS test GATT/CL/GAD/BV-03-C published a service starting at handle 0xfffd and ending at 0xffff.

Don't we have a test for it under unit/test-gatt.c? Perhaps it would be a good idea to add one while doing this change.

This could end-up by a crash in db_hash_update() if not enough space has been allocated for hash.iov and some entries are overwritten.

I understand we don't want to loop around but handle 0x10000 is not valid either.

I wonder if we can just set the next_handle to 0 and then check it when using it, that way it indicates that it had looped around and handle 0 is invalid already so we shouldn't allocate anything on it.

Yes
My idea should be to add a new unordered database and run gatt_db_get_hash() on it.

I understand we don't want to loop around but handle 0x10000 is not valid either.

Afaiu the next_handle is used as:
- the next available handle, with special value 0 to define an empty db
- and the maximum size to allocate during db_hash_update()

So, 0x10000 is not a valid handle but is a valid size.

gatt_db_insert_service() is already protected to not use handle > 0xFFFF.

Not sure this can work as 0 can mean it's an empty db or a db requesting UINT16_MAX+1 elements.

During this test case, it loops to 0, but as other services are added setting next_handle to another value, ending up to allocate less memory than expected (i.e. UINT16_MAX+1 elements).

We may replace the next_handle by last_handle, use gatt_db_isempty() instead of the handle 0 to check for empty db, and allocate last_handle+1 in db_hash_update(). Does it seems better?

Regards,

Fred
