Assertion failure in fifo8_push_all() through am53c974

Hello,

Using hypervisor fuzzer, hyfuzz, I found an assertion failure through am53c974 emulator.

A malicious guest user/process could use this flaw to abort the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service.

This was found in version 5.2.0 (master, 3f8d1885e4)

To reproduce the assertion failure, please run the QEMU with the following command line.

```

$ ./qemu-system-i386 -m 512 -drive file=./hyfuzz.img,index=0,media=disk,format=raw -device am53c974,id=scsi -device scsi-hd,drive=SysDisk -drive id=SysDisk,if=none,file=./disk.img

```

Please let me know if I can provide any further info.

Thank you.

Thanks for the test case - looks like the problem occurs because a command hasn't been submitted before initiating a DMA transfer, and TC is set to a value higher than the size of cmdfifo. Can you confirm that the following fix works for you?

Hello Mark,

I tested on fixed version, and checked that it does not trigger the assertion failure.

Thanks,
- Cheolwoo Myung

Thank you both for the reproducers. Please see the proposed patchset here:

This is fixed now, thank you Mark.

I'm not able to change the status of this bug anymore. It should have been closed as "Fix committed" - QEMU 6.0.0 is not yet released.
