The bug here is that when we copy the payload the value of *ppos should be zero but it is sizeof(ipc4_msg->header_u64) instead. That means that the buffer will be copied to the wrong location within the ipc4_msg->data_ptr buffer. Really, in this context, it is simpler and more appropriate to use copy_from_user() instead of simple_write_to_buffer() so I have re-written the function.

I believe this function is mostly used to write random junk to the device and see what breaks. So probably it works fine as-is. sound/soc/sof/sof-client-ipc-msg-injector.c | 27 ++++++++------------- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/sound/soc/sof/sof-client-ipc-msg-injector.c b/sound/soc/sof/sof-client-ipc-msg-injector.c index 6bdfa527b7f7..e8ab173e95b5 100644 --- a/sound/soc/sof/sof-client-ipc-msg-injector.c +++ b/sound/soc/sof/sof-client-ipc-msg-injector.c @@ -181,7 +181,7 @@ static ssize_t sof_msg_inject_ipc4_dfs_write(struct file *file, struct sof_client_dev *cdev = file->private_data; struct sof_msg_inject_priv *priv = cdev->data; struct sof_ipc4_msg *ipc4_msg = priv->tx_buffer; - ssize_t size; + size_t data_size; int ret; if (*ppos) @@ -191,25 +191,18 @@ static ssize_t sof_msg_inject_ipc4_dfs_write(struct file *file, return -EINVAL; /* copy the header first */ - size = simple_write_to_buffer(&ipc4_msg->header_u64, - sizeof(ipc4_msg->header_u64), - ppos, buffer, count); - if (size < 0) - return size; - if (size != sizeof(ipc4_msg->header_u64)) + if (copy_from_user(&ipc4_msg->header_u64, buffer, + sizeof(ipc4_msg->header_u64))) return -EFAULT; - count -= size; + data_size = count - sizeof(ipc4_msg->header_u64); + if (data_size > priv->max_msg_size) + return -EINVAL; /* Copy the payload */ - size = simple_write_to_buffer(ipc4_msg->data_ptr, - priv->max_msg_size, ppos, buffer, - count); - if (size < 0) - return size; - if (size != count) + if (copy_from_user(ipc4_msg->data_ptr, buffer, data_size)) return -EFAULT; - ipc4_msg->data_size = count; + ipc4_msg->data_size = data_size; /* Initialize the reply storage */ ipc4_msg = priv->rx_buffer; @@ -221,9 +214,9 @@ static ssize_t sof_msg_inject_ipc4_dfs_write(struct file *file, /* return the error code if test failed */ if (ret < 0) - size = ret; + count = ret; - return size; + return count; }; static int sof_msg_inject_dfs_release(struct inode *inode, struct file *file) -- 2.35.1
