[PATCH 6.4 164/206] dmaengine: mcf-edma: Fix a potential un-allocated memory access

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

 



From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0a46781c89dece85386885a407244ca26e5c1c44 upstream.

When 'mcf_edma' is allocated, some space is allocated for a
flexible array at the end of the struct. 'chans' item are allocated, that is
to say 'pdata->dma_channels'.

Then, this number of item is stored in 'mcf_edma->n_chans'.

A few lines later, if 'mcf_edma->n_chans' is 0, then a default value of 64
is set.

This ends to no space allocated by devm_kzalloc() because chans was 0, but
64 items are read and/or written in some not allocated memory.

Change the logic to define a default value before allocating the memory.
