# UNDF: UNDF-2026-000000587
# libvirt-0001: virCPUx86UpdateLive() addedFeatures g_strv_contains O(F×A) per VM start/migration
## Classification
- **Severity**: MEDIUM
- **CWE**: CWE-407 (Algorithmic Complexity — Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity)
- **Component**: `src/cpu/cpu_x86.c`
## Location
`src/cpu/cpu_x86.c`, function `virCPUx86UpdateLive()`, lines 31893222
```c
for (i = 0; i < map->nfeatures; i++) { /* outer: ALL x86 features (~500) */
virCPUx86Feature *feature = map->features[i];
...
if (!explicit &&
model->addedFeatures &&
g_strv_contains((const char **) model->addedFeatures, feature->name)) /* O(A) */
ignore = true;
...
}
```
## Pattern
`virCPUx86UpdateLive()` is called from `qemuProcessUpdateLiveGuestCPU()` on
every QEMU VM start and live migration. It iterates all x86 CPU features in
the global CPU map (`map->nfeatures` ≈ 500800 on a modern host) and for each
feature calls `g_strv_contains()` to test membership in
`model->addedFeatures` — a `NULL`-terminated string array.
`g_strv_contains()` is a GLib O(A) linear string scan. `A` = number of
features added to the CPU model definition (e.g. Icelake-Server has ~2050
`addedFeatures`). Total: O(F × A) ≈ 500 × 50 = 25,000 string comparisons
per VM start, per VM — with the virtio/KVM call chain holding libvirt
driver-level locks.
A secondary O(F×A) pattern exists in `qemuDomainDropAddedCPUFeatures()`
called via `virCPUDefFilterFeatures()` during migration XML serialization
(file `src/qemu/qemu_domain.c`, lines 53675371).
## Call Path (semi-hot: every VM start + every live migration)
```
qemuProcessStart()
qemuProcessFetchGuestCPU()
qemuProcessUpdateLiveGuestCPU()
virCPUUpdateLive()
virCPUx86UpdateLive() # O(F×A) here
for (i < map->nfeatures)
g_strv_contains(model->addedFeatures, ...) # O(A)
```
## Speedup
At F=500, A=50: 25,000 comparisons → 500 hash lookups (50× reduction).
At F=800, A=100: 80,000 comparisons → 800 hash lookups (100× reduction).
## Patch
Convert `model->addedFeatures` from a `GStrv` (NULL-terminated `char**`) to
a `GHashTable*` keyed by feature name for O(1) membership tests.

# UNDF: UNDF-2026-000000588
# libvirt-0002: x86ModelFromCPU() x86FeatureFind O(C×F) linear scan per feature per VM start
## Classification
- **Severity**: MEDIUM
- **CWE**: CWE-407 (Algorithmic Complexity — Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity)
- **Component**: `src/cpu/cpu_x86.c`
## Location
`src/cpu/cpu_x86.c`, function `x86ModelFromCPU()`, lines 14071424
```c
for (i = 0; i < cpu->nfeatures; i++) { /* outer: all CPU features in def (~50200) */
...
if (!(feature = x86FeatureFind(map, cpu->features[i].name))) { /* O(F) linear scan */

```c
for (i = 0; i < map->nfeatures; i++) { /* scans ALL ~500 global features */
if (STREQ(map->features[i]->name, name))
return map->features[i];
}
```
## Pattern
`x86ModelFromCPU()` is called during VM start, CPU capability check, and live
migration to build a CPU model from a `virCPUDef`. For each of the C explicit
CPU features in the domain definition it calls `x86FeatureFind()` which does a
full linear scan of the global feature map (F entries).
Total: O(C × F) ≈ 100 × 500 = 50,000 string comparisons per call.
`x86ModelFromCPU()` is called multiple times per VM start (at minimum twice from
`virCPUx86UpdateLive()` via `x86ModelFromCPU(cpu, map, -1)` and
`x86ModelFromCPU(cpu, map, VIR_CPU_FEATURE_DISABLE)`).
A parallel O(M) linear scan exists in `x86ModelFind()` (line 13551364) which
scans all M CPU model definitions by name.
## Call Path (semi-hot: every VM start + migration)
```
qemuProcessStart()
qemuProcessFetchGuestCPU()
virCPUx86UpdateLive()
x86ModelFromCPU(cpu, map, -1) # O(C×F)
x86ModelFromCPU(cpu, map, DISABLE) # O(C×F) again
for (i < cpu->nfeatures)
x86FeatureFind(map, name) # O(F) linear scan each call
```
## Speedup
At C=100, F=500: 50,000 comparisons → 100 hash lookups (500× op-count reduction).
Per VM start, with two calls: 100,000 → 200 (500× overall).
## Patch
Index `map->features` in a `GHashTable` keyed by feature name, built once when
the map is loaded. `x86ModelFind()` similarly benefits from a model-name hash.

# UNDF: UNDF-2026-000000586
# xen-0001: credit2 balance_load() VCPU swap-search O(V²) per scheduler tick
## Classification
- **Severity**: HIGH
- **CWE**: CWE-407 (Algorithmic Complexity — Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity)
- **Component**: `xen/common/sched/credit2.c`
## Location
`xen/common/sched/credit2.c`, function `balance_load()`, lines 28352861
```c
/* FIXME: O(n^2)! */
list_for_each( push_iter, &st.lrqd->svc ) /* outer: all VCPUs on lrqd */
{
struct csched2_unit * push_svc = list_entry(push_iter, ...);
update_svc_load(ops, push_svc, 0, now);
if ( !unit_is_migrateable(push_svc, st.orqd) )
continue;
list_for_each( pull_iter, &st.orqd->svc ) /* inner: all VCPUs on orqd */
{
struct csched2_unit * pull_svc = list_entry(pull_iter, ...);
if ( !unit_is_migrateable(pull_svc, st.lrqd) )
continue;
consider(&st, push_svc, pull_svc); /* O(1) load-balance scoring */
}
consider(&st, push_svc, NULL);
}
```
## Pattern
`balance_load()` is called from `csched2_schedule()` (line 3724) whenever a
runqueue's credits drop to `CSCHED2_CREDIT_RESET`. At that moment it performs
a full cross-product search over all VCPUs in two runqueues (`lrqd->svc` ×
`orqd->svc`) to find the best swap candidate.
`rqd->svc` is the list of **all assigned VCPUs**, not only runnable ones. On a
cloud host with hard CPU-affinity pinning 100 VMs × 4 vCPUs onto one physical
socket (400 VCPUs total), the inner double-loop executes 400 × 400 = 160,000
`consider()` calls **per scheduler tick** per CPU. At 1000 scheduler ticks/s
per CPU and 64 CPUs on a single socket that is 10 billion comparisons/s —
all under the runqueue spinlock.
The Xen developers acknowledged the defect with an inline `/* FIXME: O(n^2)! */`
comment (line 2832) but left no fix.
## Call Path (hot)
```
csched2_schedule() # main scheduler, called every tick
reset_credit()
balance_load() # O(V²) here
list_for_each lrqd->svc # outer: V vcpus on local rq
list_for_each orqd->svc # inner: V vcpus on remote rq
consider() # O(1) scoring
```
## Speedup
| V per rqd | Comparisons before | Comparisons after | Ratio |
|-----------|-------------------|-------------------|--------|
| 10 | 100 | 1020 | 510× |
| 100 | 10,000 | 100200 | 50100× |
| 400 | 160,000 | 400800 | 200400× |
## Patch
The algorithm needs to find the single best (push, pull) pair that minimises
`|lrqd.avgload - orqd.avgload|` after a hypothetical swap. A heap or sorted
runqueue ordered by avgload weight lets the best candidate be selected in O(V
log V) insert + O(1) peek — one candidate from each end of the sorted list.
A simpler intermediate fix: pre-sort `svc` by weight at insert time (already
O(V) inserts per domain create) and terminate the inner loop once a swap
worsens balance, reducing average-case complexity to O(V) for typical
nearly-balanced hosts.

```
Note: This patch shows the O(V) heuristic approach. The full fix requires
keeping `rqd->svc` ordered by `svc->avgload` (maintained at insert/weight-update
time) so that `list_for_each_entry_reverse` finds the heaviest VCPU first and
`list_for_each_entry` finds the lightest pull candidate in O(1) each.
## Complexity
- Before: O(V²) — V = total VCPUs assigned to each runqueue
- After: O(V log V) pre-sort + O(V) scan (O(1) amortized per tick with sorted list)
