[BUG] fbdev: i740fb: Divide error when ‘var->pixclock’ is zero

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I found a bug in the function i740fb_set_par().

When the user calls the ioctl system call without setting the value to
'var->pixclock', the driver will throw a divide error.

This bug occurs because the driver uses the value of 'var->pixclock'
without checking it, as the following code snippet show:

if ((1000000 / var->pixclock) > DACSPEED8) {
     dev_err(info->device, "requested pixclock %i MHz out of range
(max. %i MHz at 8bpp)\n",
         1000000 / var->pixclock, DACSPEED8);
    return -EINVAL;x
}

We can fix this by checking the value of 'var->pixclock' in the
function i740fb_check_var() similar to commit
b36b242d4b8ea178f7fd038965e3cac7f30c3f09, or we should set the lowest
supported value when this field is zero.
I have no idea about which solution is better.

The following log reveals it:
