From 33a154a96e71a34a1bcca9f40da343dbbf7b38b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexei Starovoitov Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2026 14:52:55 +0000 Subject: selftests/bpf: Test packet range of pointers sharing an id Add tests where two packet pointers share an id and tightening one pointer's umax from its var_off would put it less than their constant distance from the other's umax: with an index & 0x38 capped at 50, the base pointer keeps umax 50, so the pointer 8 bytes further on must keep umax 58, even though its known bits allow at most 56. These refused a valid program or accepted an out-of-bounds access before the fix: - check the advanced copy, load through the base: valid, was refused; - check the base, load the byte at base + 1 through a copy advanced by 8: was accepted; - check base + 4, load 4 bytes at base + 2 through base + 8: reads two bytes past the checked range, was accepted; - the same as the second with data_meta pointers checked against data: was accepted. These pass with and without the fix and cover nearby paths: - subtract an unknown scalar from a checked pointer and load below it (the range is kept across a new id); - reach a load through two paths whose checks cover 8 and 7 bytes after the loaded pointer; the second path must not be pruned by the first; - spill a copy of a pointer, check the pointer, fill the copy and load one byte past the checked range: the load is refused, and the copy has the range of the check.

These +structures are declared in include/linux/fb.h. They are fb_info, +fb_var_screeninfo, fb_fix_screeninfo and fb_monospecs. The last +three can be made available to and from userland. + +fb_info defines the current state of a particular video card. Inside +fb_info, there exists a fb_ops structure which is a collection of +needed functions to make fbdev and fbcon work. fb_info is only visible +to the kernel. + +fb_var_screeninfo is used to describe the features of a video card +that are user defined. With fb_var_screeninfo, things such as depth +and the resolution may be defined. + +The next structure is fb_fix_screeninfo. This defines the properties +of a card that are created when a mode is set and can't be changed +otherwise. A good example of this is the start of the frame buffer +memory. This "locks" the address of the frame buffer memory, so that it +cannot be changed or moved. + +The last structure is fb_monospecs. In the old API, there was little +importance for fb_monospecs. This allowed for forbidden things such as +setting a mode of 800x600 on a fix frequency monitor. With the new API, +fb_monospecs prevents such things, and if used correctly, can prevent a +monitor from being cooked. fb_monospecs will not be useful until +kernels 2.5.x. + +Frame Buffer Memory +------------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c + :export: + +Frame Buffer Colormap +--------------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcmap.c + :export: + +Frame Buffer Video Mode Database +-------------------------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/video/fbdev/core/modedb.c + :internal: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/video/fbdev/core/modedb.c + :export: + +Frame Buffer Macintosh Video Mode Database +------------------------------------------ + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/video/fbdev/macmodes.c + :export: + +Frame Buffer Fonts +------------------ + +Refer to the file lib/fonts/fonts.c for more information. + -- cgit v1.3.1
