Since the softscroll code got removed, this argument is always zero and
makes no sense any more.

<title>fbdev: Detect integer underflow at "struct fbcon_ops"-&gt;clear_margins.</title>

<id>033724d6864245a11f8e04c066002e6ad22b3fd0</id>
<content type='text'>
syzbot is reporting general protection fault in bitfill_aligned() [1]
caused by integer underflow in bit_clear_margins(). The cause of this
problem is when and how do_vc_resize() updates vc-&gt;vc_{cols,rows}.

If vc_do_resize() fails (e.g. kzalloc() fails) when var.xres or var.yres
is going to shrink, vc-&gt;vc_{cols,rows} will not be updated. This allows
bit_clear_margins() to see info-&gt;var.xres &lt; (vc-&gt;vc_cols * cw) or
info-&gt;var.yres &lt; (vc-&gt;vc_rows * ch). Unexpectedly large rw or bh will
try to overrun the __iomem region and causes general protection fault.

Also, vc_resize(vc, 0, 0) does not set vc-&gt;vc_{cols,rows} = 0 due to

  new_cols = (cols ? cols : vc-&gt;vc_cols);
  new_rows = (lines ? lines : vc-&gt;vc_rows);

exception. Since cols and lines are calculated as

  cols = FBCON_SWAP(ops-&gt;rotate, info-&gt;var.xres, info-&gt;var.yres);
  rows = FBCON_SWAP(ops-&gt;rotate, info-&gt;var.yres, info-&gt;var.xres);
  cols /= vc-&gt;vc_font.width;
  rows /= vc-&gt;vc_font.height;
  vc_resize(vc, cols, rows);

in fbcon_modechanged(), var.xres &lt; vc-&gt;vc_font.width makes cols = 0
and var.yres &lt; vc-&gt;vc_font.height makes rows = 0. This means that

  const int fd = open("/dev/fb0", O_ACCMODE);
  struct fb_var_screeninfo var = { };
  ioctl(fd, FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO, &amp;var);
  var.xres = var.yres = 1;
  ioctl(fd, FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO, &amp;var);

easily reproduces integer underflow bug explained above.

Of course, callers of vc_resize() are not handling vc_do_resize() failure
is bad. But we can't avoid vc_resize(vc, 0, 0) which returns 0. Therefore,
as a band-aid workaround, this patch checks integer underflow in
"struct fbcon_ops"-&gt;clear_margins call, assuming that
vc-&gt;vc_cols * vc-&gt;vc_font.width and vc-&gt;vc_rows * vc-&gt;vc_font.heigh do not
cause integer overflow.

The cursor code used to use magic constants, ANDs, ORs, and some macros.
Redefine all this to make some sense.

In particular:
* Drop CUR_DEFAULT, which is CUR_UNDERLINE. CUR_DEFAULT was used only
  for cur_default variable initialization, so use CUR_UNDERLINE there to
  make obvious what's the default.
* Drop CUR_HWMASK. Instead, define CUR_SIZE() which explains it more.
  And use it all over the places.
* Define few more masks and bits which will be used in next patches
  instead of magic constants.
* Define CUR_MAKE to build up cursor value.

There are two copies of some members of struct vc_data. This is because
we need to save them and restore later. Move these memebers to a
separate structure called vc_state. So now instead of members like:
  vc_x, vc_y and vc_saved_x, vc_saved_y
we have
  state and saved_state (of type: struct vc_state)
containing
  state.x, state.y and saved_state.x, saved_state.y

This change:
* makes clear what is saved &amp; restored
* eases save &amp; restore by using memcpy (see save_cur and restore_cur)

Finally, we document the newly added struct vc_state using kernel-doc.

<title>treewide: kmalloc() -&gt; kmalloc_array()</title>

<id>6da2ec56059c3c7a7e5f729e6349e74ace1e5c57</id>
<content type='text'>
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

// Fix redundant parens around sizeof().

<pre>
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

<title>fbcon: add fbcon=margin:&lt;color&gt; command line option</title>
<updated>2017-08-18T17:56:40+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=74c1c8b3326a366d39aa74e1737a28d4cba151c8'/>
<id>74c1c8b3326a366d39aa74e1737a28d4cba151c8</id>
<content type='text'>
This adds a new command line option to select the fbcon margin color.

The motivation for this is screens where black does not blend into the
physical surroundings of the screen. For example, using an LCD (not the
backlit kind), white text on a black background is hard to read, so
inverting the colors is preferred. However, when you do this, most of the
screen is filled with white but the margins are still filled with black.
This makes a big, black, backwards 'L' on the screen. By setting
fbcon=margin:7, the margins will be filled with white and the LCD looks as
expected.
