linux-toradex.git/drivers/video/via/ioctl.c, branch v3.0.65 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules viafb: reduce viafb_set_iga_path usage 2010-09-24T02:14:48+00:00 Florian Tobias Schandinat FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de 2010-08-10T00:45:06+00:00 661c65cd0ce180d5e3a3e05f08fc9e64cedcf91c The result of viafb_set_iga_path can change after init only in the hotplug ioctl. So we can move it there rather than doing it always when a new mode is set. The setup during init is done via a call from the init chip funtion. This change enables a stable mapping between the old device scheme and a new more powerfull one.

drivers/video/via/ioctl.c: prevent reading uninitialized stack memory 2010-09-15T23:43:53+00:00 Dan Rosenberg drosenberg@vsecurity.com 2010-09-15T23:08:24+00:00 b4aaa78f4c2f9cde2f335b14f4ca30b01f9651ca The VIAFB_GET_INFO device ioctl allows unprivileged users to read 246 bytes of uninitialized stack memory, because the "reserved" member of the viafb_ioctl_info struct declared on the stack is not altered or zeroed before being copied back to the user. This patch takes care of it. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg <dan.j.rosenberg@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>
