[PATCH 4.19 1/2] fbcon: Prevent that screen size is smaller than font size

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

 



From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx>

commit e64242caef18b4a5840b0e7a9bff37abd4f4f933 upstream.

We need to prevent that users configure a screen size which is smaller than the
currently selected font size. Otherwise rendering chars on the screen will
access memory outside the graphics memory region.

This patch adds a new function fbcon_modechange_possible() which
implements this check and which later may be extended with other checks
if necessary.  The new function is called from the FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO
ioctl handler in fbmem.c, which will return -EINVAL if userspace asked
for a too small screen size.
