2018-12-13ACPICA: change coding style to match ACPICA, no functional changeErik Schmauss
This commit alters the coding style of the following commit to match ACPICA to keep divergences between Linux and ACPICA at a minimum. This is not intended to result in functional changes. ae6b3e54aa52cd29965b8e4e47000ed2c5d78eb8 Author: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Date: Sun Nov 18 20:25:35 2018 +0100 ACPICA: Fix handling of buffer-size in acpi_ex_write_data_to_field() Signed-off-by: Erik Schmauss <erik.schmauss@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2018-11-19ACPICA: Fix handling of buffer-size in acpi_ex_write_data_to_field()Hans de Goede
Generic Serial Bus transfers use a data struct like this: struct gsb_buffer { u8 status; u8 len; u8 data[0]; }; acpi_ex_write_data_to_field() copies the data which is to be written from the source-buffer to a temp-buffer. This is done because the OpReg-handler overwrites the status field and some transfers do a write + read-back. Commit f99b89eefeb6 ("ACPICA: Update for generic_serial_bus and attrib_raw_process_bytes protocol") acpi_ex_write_data_to_field() introduces a number of problems with this: 1) It drops a "length += 2" statement used to calculate the temp-buffer size causing the temp-buffer to only be 1/2 bytes large for byte/word transfers while it should be 3/4 bytes (taking the status and len field into account). This is already fixed in commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA: Update for field unit access") which refactors the code. The ACPI 6.0 spec (ACPI_6.0.pdf) "5.5.2.4.5.2 Declaring and Using a GenericSerialBusData Buffer" (page 232) states that the GenericSerialBus Data Buffer Length field is only valid when doing a Read/Write Block (AttribBlock) transfer, but since the troublesome commit we unconditionally use the len field to determine how much data to copy from the source-buffer into the temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion. This causes 3 further issues: 2) This may lead to not copying enough data to the temp-buffer causing the OpRegion handler for the serial-bus to write garbage to the hardware. 3) The temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion is allocated to the size returned by acpi_ex_get_serial_access_length(), which may be as little as 1, so potentially this may lead to a write overflow of the temp-buffer. 4) Commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA: Update for field unit access") drops a length check on the source-buffer, leading to a potential read overflow of the source-buffer. This commit fixes all 3 remaining issues by not looking at the len field at all (the interpretation of this field is left up to the OpRegion handler), and copying the minimum of the source- and temp-buffer sizes from the source-buffer to the temp-buffer. This fixes e.g. an Acer S1003 no longer booting since the troublesome commit. Fixes: f99b89eefeb6 (ACPICA: Update for generic_serial_bus and ...)
