Hello S390 devs,

This is ancient, and CAP_SYSADMIN but it's probably simple to fix.

The patch 52898025cf7d: "[S390] dasd: security and PSF update patch
for EMC CKD ioctl" from Mar 8, 2010, leads to the following static
checker warning:

	drivers/s390/block/dasd_eckd.c:4486 dasd_symm_io()
	error: using offset into zero size array 'psf_data[]'

drivers/s390/block/dasd_eckd.c
  4458          /* Copy parms from caller */
  4459          rc = -EFAULT;
  4460          if (copy_from_user(&usrparm, argp, sizeof(usrparm)))
                                    ^^^^^^^
The user can specifiy any "usrparm.psf_data_len".  They choose zero by
mistake.

  4461                  goto out;
  4462          if (is_compat_task()) {
  4463                  /* Make sure pointers are sane even on 31 bit. */
  4464                  rc = -EINVAL;
  4465                  if ((usrparm.psf_data >> 32) != 0)
  4466                          goto out;
  4467                  if ((usrparm.rssd_result >> 32) != 0)
  4468                          goto out;
  4469                  usrparm.psf_data &= 0x7fffffffULL;
  4470                  usrparm.rssd_result &= 0x7fffffffULL;
  4471          }
  4472          /* alloc I/O data area */
  4473          psf_data = kzalloc(usrparm.psf_data_len, GFP_KERNEL | GFP_DMA);
  4474          rssd_result = kzalloc(usrparm.rssd_result_len, GFP_KERNEL | GFP_DMA);
  4475          if (!psf_data || !rssd_result) {

kzalloc() returns a ZERO_SIZE_PTR (0x16).

  4476                  rc = -ENOMEM;
  4477                  goto out_free;
  4478          }
  4479  
  4480          /* get syscall header from user space */
  4481          rc = -EFAULT;
  4482          if (copy_from_user(psf_data,
  4483                             (void __user *)(unsigned long) usrparm.psf_data,
  4484                             usrparm.psf_data_len))

That all works great.

  4485                  goto out_free;
  4486          psf0 = psf_data[0];
  4487          psf1 = psf_data[1];

But now we're assuming that "->psf_data_len" was at least 2 bytes and
who knows what other assumptions there are about the length?

  4488  
  4489          /* setup CCWs for PSF + RSSD */
  4490          cqr = dasd_smalloc_request(DASD_ECKD_MAGIC, 2, 0, device, NULL);
  4491          if (IS_ERR(cqr)) {
  4492                  DBF_DEV_EVENT(DBF_WARNING, device, "%s",
  4493                          "Could not allocate initialization request");
  4494                  rc = PTR_ERR(cqr);
  4495                  goto out_free;
  4496          }

regards,
dan carpenter
