commit bb0890b4cd7f8203e3aa99c6d0f062d6acdaad27 upstream.

drivers/video/console/newport_con.c is borrowing FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros
from drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.h. To keep things simple, move all
definitions into &lt;linux/font.h&gt;.

Since newport_con now uses four extra words, initialize the fourth word in
newport_set_font() properly.

<title>vgacon: remove software scrollback support</title>

commit 973c096f6a85e5b5f2a295126ba6928d9a6afd45 upstream.

Yunhai Zhang recently fixed a VGA software scrollback bug in commit
ebfdfeeae8c0 ("vgacon: Fix for missing check in scrollback handling"),
but that then made people look more closely at some of this code, and
there were more problems on the vgacon side, but also the fbcon software
scrollback.

We don't really have anybody who maintains this code - probably because
nobody actually _uses_ it any more.  Sure, people still use both VGA and
the framebuffer consoles, but they are no longer the main user
interfaces to the kernel, and haven't been for decades, so these kinds
of extra features end up bitrotting and not really being used.

So rather than try to maintain a likely unused set of code, I'll just
aggressively remove it, and see if anybody even notices.  Maybe there
are people who haven't jumped on the whole GUI badnwagon yet, and think
it's just a fad.  And maybe those people use the scrollback code.

If that turns out to be the case, we can resurrect this again, once
we've found the sucker^Wmaintainer for it who actually uses it.

[ Upstream commit fd4b8243877250c05bb24af7fea5567110c9720b ]

A call of the function do_take_over_console() can fail here.
The corresponding system resources were not released then.
Thus add a call of iounmap() and release_mem_region()
together with the check of a failure predicate. and also
add release_mem_region() on device removal.

commit ebfdfeeae8c01fcb2b3b74ffaf03876e20835d2d upstream.

vgacon_scrollback_update() always leaves enbough room in the scrollback
buffer for the next call, but if the console size changed that room
might not actually be enough, and so we need to re-check.

The check should be in the loop since vgacon_scrollback_cur-&gt;tail is
updated in the loop and count may be more than 1 when triggered by CSI M,
as Jiri's PoC:
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/stat.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/ioctl.h&gt;
#include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
        int fd = open("/dev/tty1", O_RDWR);
        unsigned short size[3] = {25, 200, 0};
        ioctl(fd, 0x5609, size); // VT_RESIZE

        write(fd, "\e[1;1H", 6);
        for (int i = 0; i &lt; 30; i++)
                write(fd, "\e[10M", 5);
}

It leads to various crashes as vgacon_scrollback_update writes out of
the buffer:
 BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc900001752a0
 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
 #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
 RIP: 0010:mutex_unlock+0x13/0x30
...
 Call Trace:
  n_tty_write+0x1a0/0x4d0
  tty_write+0x1a0/0x2e0

Or to KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in vgacon_scroll+0x57a/0x8ed

This fixes CVE-2020-14331.

commit 513dc792d6060d5ef572e43852683097a8420f56 upstream.

    &gt;ffff880000100000: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
     ff ff ff

It can be reproduce in the linux mainline by the program:
  #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
  #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
  #include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
  #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/stat.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/ioctl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/vt.h&gt;

  struct tiocl_selection {
    unsigned short xs;      /* X start */
    unsigned short ys;      /* Y start */
    unsigned short xe;      /* X end */
    unsigned short ye;      /* Y end */
    unsigned short sel_mode; /* selection mode */
  };

  #define TIOCL_SETSEL    2
  struct tiocl {
    unsigned char type;
    unsigned char pad;
    struct tiocl_selection sel;
  };

  int main()
  {
    int fd = 0;
    const char *dev = "/dev/char/4:1";

    struct vt_consize v = {0};
    struct tiocl tioc = {0};

    fd = open(dev, O_RDWR, 0);

    v.v_rows = 3346;
    ioctl(fd, VT_RESIZEX, &amp;v);

    tioc.type = TIOCL_SETSEL;
    ioctl(fd, TIOCLINUX, &amp;tioc);

    return 0;
  }

When resize the screen, update the 'vc-&gt;vc_size_row' to the new_row_size,
but when 'set_origin' in 'vgacon_set_origin', vgacon use 'vga_vram_base'
for 'vc_origin' and 'vc_visible_origin', not 'vc_screenbuf'. It maybe
smaller than 'vc_screenbuf'. When TIOCLINUX, use the new_row_size to calc
the offset, it maybe larger than the vga_vram_size in vgacon driver, then
bad access.
Also, if set an larger screenbuf firstly, then set an more larger
screenbuf, when copy old_origin to new_origin, a bad access may happen.

So, If the screen size larger than vga_vram, resize screen should be
failed. This alse fix CVE-2020-8649 and CVE-2020-8647.

Linus pointed out that overflow checking seems absent. We're saved by
the existing bounds checks in vc_do_resize() with rather strict
limits:

	if (cols &gt; VC_RESIZE_MAXCOL || lines &gt; VC_RESIZE_MAXROW)
		return -EINVAL;

It can be reproduce in the linux mainline by the program:
  #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
  #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
  #include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
  #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/stat.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/ioctl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/vt.h&gt;

  struct tiocl_selection {
    unsigned short xs;      /* X start */
    unsigned short ys;      /* Y start */
    unsigned short xe;      /* X end */
    unsigned short ye;      /* Y end */
    unsigned short sel_mode; /* selection mode */
  };

  #define TIOCL_SETSEL    2
  struct tiocl {
    unsigned char type;
    unsigned char pad;
    struct tiocl_selection sel;
  };

  int main()
  {
    int fd = 0;
    const char *dev = "/dev/char/4:1";

    struct vt_consize v = {0};
    struct tiocl tioc = {0};

    fd = open(dev, O_RDWR, 0);

    v.v_rows = 3346;
    ioctl(fd, VT_RESIZEX, &amp;v);

    tioc.type = TIOCL_SETSEL;
    ioctl(fd, TIOCLINUX, &amp;tioc);

    return 0;
  }

When resize the screen, update the 'vc-&gt;vc_size_row' to the new_row_size,
but when 'set_origin' in 'vgacon_set_origin', vgacon use 'vga_vram_base'
for 'vc_origin' and 'vc_visible_origin', not 'vc_screenbuf'. It maybe
smaller than 'vc_screenbuf'. When TIOCLINUX, use the new_row_size to calc
the offset, it maybe larger than the vga_vram_size in vgacon driver, then
bad access.
Also, if set an larger screenbuf firstly, then set an more larger
screenbuf, when copy old_origin to new_origin, a bad access may happen.

So, If the screen size larger than vga_vram, resize screen should be
failed. This alse fix CVE-2020-8649 and CVE-2020-8647.

Linus pointed out that overflow checking seems absent. We're saved by
the existing bounds checks in vc_do_resize() with rather strict
limits:

	if (cols &gt; VC_RESIZE_MAXCOL || lines &gt; VC_RESIZE_MAXROW)
		return -EINVAL;

<title>vgacon: unconfuse vc_origin when using soft scrollback</title>

commit bfd8d8fe98b8792f362cd210a7873969f8d2fc04 upstream.

When CONFIG_VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK is selected, the VGA display memory
index and vc_visible_origin don't change when scrollback is activated.
The actual screen content is saved away and the scrollbackdata is copied
over it. However the vt code, and /dev/vcs devices in particular, still
expect vc_origin to always point at the actual screen content not the
displayed scrollback content.

So adjust vc_origin to point at the saved screen content when scrollback
is active and set it back to vc_visible_origin when restoring the screen.

This fixes /dev/vcsa&lt;n&gt; that return scrollback content when they
shouldn't (onli /dev/vcsa without a number should), and also fixes
/dev/vcsu that should return scrollback content when scrollback is
active but currently doesn't.

An unnecessary call to vga_set_mem_top() is also removed.

Having FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER with fbdev+fbcon being build
as a module does not make much sense.

Having FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER only when fbdev+fbcon are
builtin was always the intention, hence the =y checks but they were
checking the wrong option, fbcon is build as part of fb.ko, so we must
check for FB=y.

<title>video/console/vgacon: Print big fat warning with nomodeset</title>

It's been a pretty good while since kernel modesetting was introduced.
It has almost entirely replaced previous solutions which required
userspace modesetting, and I can't even recall any drivers off the top
of my head for modern day hardware that don't only support one or the
other. Even nvidia's ugly blob does not require the use of nomodeset,
and only requires that nouveau be blacklisted.

Effectively, the only thing nomodeset does in the year 2018 is disable
your graphics drivers. Since VESA is a thing, this will give many users
the false impression that they've actually fixed an issue they were
having with their machine simply because the laptop will boot up to a
degraded GUI. This of course, is never actually the case.

Things get even worse when you consider that there's still an enormous
amount of tutorials users find on the internet that still suggest adding
nomodeset, along with various users who have been around long enough to
still suggest it.

There really isn't any legitimate reason I can see for this to be an
option that's used by anyone else other then developers, or properly
informed users. So, let's end the confusion and start printing warnings
whenever it's enabled.
