Hi! Sorry for the late response. But I think I could add some useful info, because I also analyzed this report from syzkaller. I don't think that we could fix this UBSAN warning with this patch. If you look at the lines right before your check you will find another check of cmd_count with clarifying comment: if (ptr->cmd_count > 33) /* the command may now also take up the space * initially intended for the reply & the * reply count. Needed for long 82078 commands * such as RESTORE, which takes ... 17 command * bytes. Murphy's law #137: When you reserve * 16 bytes for a structure, you'll one day * discover that you really need 17... */ return -EINVAL; for (i = 0; i < 16; i++) ptr->reply[i] = 0; ptr->resultcode = 0; And a little bit more details about (from include/uapi/linux/fd.h): struct floppy_raw_cmd { ... unsigned char cmd_count; unsigned char cmd[16]; unsigned char reply_count; unsigned char reply[16]; ... } So, cmd[16] + reply_count[1] + reply[16] == 33. Thus, this behavior is intentional, we could not fix it this way and it's already a part of UAPI. But thank you for analyzing the report!
