tty: vt: always invoke vc->vc_sw->con_resize callback
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit ffb324e upstream.

syzbot is reporting OOB write at vga16fb_imageblit() [1], for
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.

----------
  #include <sys/types.h>
  #include <sys/stat.h>
  #include <fcntl.h>
  #include <sys/ioctl.h>
  #include <linux/kd.h>
  #include <linux/vt.h>

  int main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
        const int fd = open("/dev/char/4:1", O_RDWR);
        struct vt_sizes vt = { 0x4100, 2 };

        ioctl(fd, KDSETMODE, KD_GRAPHICS);
        ioctl(fd, VT_RESIZE, &vt);
        ioctl(fd, KDSETMODE, KD_TEXT);
        return 0;
  }
----------

Allow framebuffer drivers to return -EINVAL, by moving vc->vc_mode !=
KD_GRAPHICS check from resize_screen() to fbcon_resize().
