commit 02625c965239b71869326dd0461615f27307ecb3 upstream.

The return value of hga_card_detect() is not properly handled causing
the probe to succeed even though hga_card_detect() failed. Since probe
succeeds, hgafb_open() can be called which will end up operating on an
unmapped hga_vram. This results in an out-of-bounds access as reported
by kernel test robot [1].

To fix this, correctly detect failure of hga_card_detect() by checking
for a non-zero error code.

resize_screen() from ioctl(VT_RESIZE) returns 0 without checking whether
requested rows/columns fit the amount of memory reserved for the graphical
screen if current mode is KD_GRAPHICS.

<title>vt: Fix character height handling with VT_RESIZEX</title>

<id>cf4cdc59a1e401cdc01944488d88068aafda8f8d</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 860dafa902595fb5f1d23bbcce1215188c3341e6 upstream.

Restore the original intent of the VT_RESIZEX ioctl's `v_clin' parameter
which is the number of pixel rows per character (cell) rather than the
height of the font used.

For framebuffer devices the two values are always the same, because the
former is inferred from the latter one.  For VGA used as a true text
mode device these two parameters are independent from each other: the
number of pixel rows per character is set in the CRT controller, while
font height is in fact hardwired to 32 pixel rows and fonts of heights
below that value are handled by padding their data with blanks when
loaded to hardware for use by the character generator.  One can change
the setting in the CRT controller and it will update the screen contents
accordingly regardless of the font loaded.

The `v_clin' parameter is used by the `vgacon' driver to set the height
of the character cell and then the cursor position within.  Make the
parameter explicit then, by defining a new `vc_cell_height' struct
member of `vc_data', set it instead of `vc_font.height' from `v_clin' in
the VT_RESIZEX ioctl, and then use it throughout the `vgacon' driver
except where actual font data is accessed which as noted above is
independent from the CRTC setting.

This way the framebuffer console driver is free to ignore the `v_clin'
parameter as irrelevant, as it always should have, avoiding any issues
attempts to give the parameter a meaning there could have caused, such
as one that has led to commit 988d0763361b ("vt_ioctl: make VT_RESIZEX
behave like VT_RESIZE"):

 "syzbot is reporting UAF/OOB read at bit_putcs()/soft_cursor() [1][2],
  for vt_resizex() from ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) allows setting font height
  larger than actual font height calculated by con_font_set() from
  ioctl(PIO_FONT). Since fbcon_set_font() from con_font_set() allocates
  minimal amount of memory based on actual font height calculated by
  con_font_set(), use of vt_resizex() can cause UAF/OOB read for font
  data."

The problem first appeared around Linux 2.5.66 which predates our repo
history, but the origin could be identified with the old MIPS/Linux repo
also at: &lt;git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux.git&gt;
as commit 9736a3546de7 ("Merge with Linux 2.5.66."), where VT_RESIZEX
code in `vt_ioctl' was updated as follows:

 		if (clin)
-			video_font_height = clin;
+			vc-&gt;vc_font.height = clin;

making the parameter apply to framebuffer devices as well, perhaps due
to the use of "font" in the name of the original `video_font_height'
variable.  Use "cell" in the new struct member then to avoid ambiguity.

commit d4d0ad57b3865795c4cde2fb5094c594c2e8f469 upstream.

Fix an issue with VGA console font size changes made after the initial
video text mode has been changed with a user tool like `svgatextmode'
calling the VT_RESIZEX ioctl.  As it stands in that case the original
screen geometry continues being used to validate further VT resizing.

Consequently when the video adapter is firstly reprogrammed from the
original say 80x25 text mode using a 9x16 character cell (720x400 pixel
resolution) to say 80x37 text mode and the same character cell (720x592
pixel resolution), and secondly the CRTC character cell updated to 9x8
(by loading a suitable font with the KD_FONT_OP_SET request of the
KDFONTOP ioctl), the VT geometry does not get further updated from 80x37
and only upper half of the screen is used for the VT, with the lower
half showing rubbish corresponding to whatever happens to be there in
the video memory that maps to that part of the screen.  Of course the
proportions change according to text mode geometries and font sizes
chosen.

Address the problem then, by updating the text mode geometry defaults
rather than checking against them whenever the VT is resized via a user
ioctl.

commit dc13cac4862cc68ec74348a80b6942532b7735fa upstream.

The return of ioremap if not checked, and can lead to a NULL to be
assigned to hga_vram. Potentially leading to a NULL pointer
dereference.

The fix adds code to deal with this case in the error label and
changes how the hgafb_probe handles the return of hga_card_detect.

commit ed04fe8a0e87d7b5ea17d47f4ac9ec962b24814a upstream.

This reverts commit 1d84353d205a953e2381044953b7fa31c8c9702d.

Because of recent interactions with developers from @umn.edu, all
commits from them have been recently re-reviewed to ensure if they were
correct or not.

Upon review, this commit was found to be incorrect for the reasons
below, so it must be reverted.  It will be fixed up "correctly" in a
later kernel change.

The original commit here, while technically correct, did not fully
handle all of the reported issues that the commit stated it was fixing,
so revert it until it can be "fixed" fully.

Note, ioremap() probably will never fail for old hardware like this, and
if anyone actually used this hardware (a PowerMac era PCI display card),
they would not be using fbdev anymore.

commit ed04fe8a0e87d7b5ea17d47f4ac9ec962b24814a upstream.

This reverts commit 1d84353d205a953e2381044953b7fa31c8c9702d.

Because of recent interactions with developers from @umn.edu, all
commits from them have been recently re-reviewed to ensure if they were
correct or not.

Upon review, this commit was found to be incorrect for the reasons
below, so it must be reverted.  It will be fixed up "correctly" in a
later kernel change.

The original commit here, while technically correct, did not fully
handle all of the reported issues that the commit stated it was fixing,
so revert it until it can be "fixed" fully.

Note, ioremap() probably will never fail for old hardware like this, and
if anyone actually used this hardware (a PowerMac era PCI display card),
they would not be using fbdev anymore.

commit 58c0cc2d90f1e37c4eb63ae7f164c83830833f78 upstream.

This patch "looks" correct, but the driver keeps on running and will
fail horribly right afterward if this error condition ever trips.

So points for trying to resolve an issue, but a huge NEGATIVE value for
providing a "fake" fix for the problem as nothing actually got resolved
at all.  I'll go fix this up properly...

commit 19ab233989d0f7ab1de19a036e247afa4a0a1e9c upstream.

Use kzalloc() rather than kmalloc() for the dynamically allocated parts
of the colormap in fb_alloc_cmap_gfp, to prevent a leak of random kernel
data to userspace under certain circumstances.

Fixes a KMSAN-found infoleak bug reported by syzbot at:

[ Upstream commit c6c90c70db4d9a0989111d6b994d545659410f7a ]

It looks like SPARC64 requires FB_ATY_CT to build without errors,
so have FB_ATY select FB_ATY_CT if both SPARC64 and PCI are enabled
instead of using "default y if SPARC64 &amp;&amp; PCI", which is not strong
enough to prevent build errors.

As it currently is, FB_ATY_CT can be disabled, resulting in build
errors:

ERROR: modpost: "aty_postdividers" [drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "aty_ld_pll_ct" [drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb.ko] undefined!

<title>video: hyperv_fb: Fix the mmap() regression for v5.4.y and older</title>

db49200b1dad is backported from the mainline commit
5f1251a48c17 ("video: hyperv_fb: Fix the cache type when mapping the VRAM"),
to v5.4.y and older stable branches, but unluckily db49200b1dad causes
mmap() to fail for /dev/fb0 due to EINVAL:

[ 5797.049560] x86/PAT: a.out:1910 map pfn expected mapping type
  uncached-minus for [mem 0xf8200000-0xf85cbfff], got write-back

This means the v5.4.y kernel detects an incompatibility issue about the
mapping type of the VRAM: db49200b1dad changes to use Write-Back when
mapping the VRAM, while the mmap() syscall tries to use Uncached-minus.
That’s to say, the kernel thinks Uncached-minus is incompatible with
Write-Back: see drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c: fb_mmap() -&gt;
vm_iomap_memory() -&gt; io_remap_pfn_range() -&gt; ... -&gt; track_pfn_remap() -&gt;
reserve_pfn_range().

Note: any v5.5 and newer kernel doesn't have the issue, because they
have commit
d21987d709e8 ("video: hyperv: hyperv_fb: Support deferred IO for Hyper-V frame buffer driver")
, and when the hyperv_fb driver has the deferred_io support,
fb_deferred_io_init() overrides info-&gt;fbops-&gt;fb_mmap with
fb_deferred_io_mmap(), which doesn’t check the mapping type
incompatibility. Note: since it's VRAM here, the checking is not really
necessary.

Fix the regression by ioremap_wc(), which uses Write-combining. The kernel
thinks it's compatible with Uncached-minus. The VRAM mappped by
ioremap_wc() is slightly slower than mapped by ioremap_cache(), but is
still significantly faster than by ioremap().

Change the comment accordingly. Linux VM on ARM64 Hyper-V is still not
working in the latest mainline yet, and when it works in future, the ARM64
support is unlikely to be backported to v5.4 and older, so using
ioremap_wc() in v5.4 and older should be ok.

Note: this fix is only targeted at the stable branches:
v5.4.y, v4.19.y, v4.14.y, v4.9.y and v4.4.y.
