6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Matt Johnston <matt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit f962e8361adfa84e8252d3fc3e5e6bb879f029b1 upstream. 0x7d and 0x7e bytes are meant to be escaped in the data portion of frames, but this didn't occur since next_chunk_len() had an off-by-one error. That also resulted in the final byte of a payload being written as a separate tty write op. The chunk prior to an escaped byte would be one byte short, and the next call would never test the txpos+1 case, which is where the escaped byte was located. That meant it never hit the escaping case in mctp_serial_tx_work(). Example Input: 01 00 08 c8 7e 80 02 Previous incorrect chunks from next_chunk_len(): 01 00 08 c8 7e 80 02 With this fix: 01 00 08 c8 7e 80 02 Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fixes: a0c2ccd9b5ad ("mctp: Add MCTP-over-serial transport binding") Signed-off-by: Matt Johnston <matt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
