I don't want to walk down this road really, so yes I prefer if we just keep on having really strict checks. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch ___ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx

Do you need these modifications as a pre-requisite for merging his patch, or can further improvements be submitted separately?

So for each vbt version range I'd like us to check what size we exactly expect. Being super paranoid with vbt is imo good practice since otherwise the hw teams will sneak in another update without us realizing it. -Daniel > --- > drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_bios.c | 9 +++-- > 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_bios.c > b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_bios.c > index 2ff9eb0..763a636 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_bios.c > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_bios.c > @@ -1022,10 +1022,15 @@ parse_device_mapping(struct drm_i915_private > *dev_priv, > DRM_DEBUG_KMS("No general definition block is found, no devices > defined.\n"); > return; > } > - if (p_defs->child_dev_size < sizeof(*p_child)) { > + /* Historically, child_dev_size has to be at least 33 bytes in size. */ > + if (p_defs->child_dev_size < 33) { > DRM_ERROR("General definiton block child device size is too > small.\n"); > return; > } > + if (p_defs->child_dev_size > sizeof(*p_child)) { > + DRM_ERROR("General definiton block child device size is too > large.\n"); > + return; > + } > /* get the block size of general definitions */ > block_size = get_blocksize(p_defs); > /* get the number of child device */ > @@ -1070,7 +1075,7 @@ parse_device_mapping(struct drm_i915_private *dev_priv, > > child_dev_ptr = dev_priv->vbt.child_dev + count; > count++; > - memcpy(child_dev_ptr, p_child, sizeof(*p_child)); > + memcpy(child_dev_ptr, p_child, p_defs->child_dev_size); > } > return; > } > -- > 2.3.6 > > ___ > Intel-gfx mailing list > Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org > http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch ___ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
