HID: debug: fix the ring buffer implementation
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1818813 commit 13054abb upstream. Ring buffer implementation in hid_debug_event() and hid_debug_events_read() is strange allowing lost or corrupted data. After commit 717adfda ("HID: debug: check length before copy_to_user()") it is possible to enter an infinite loop in hid_debug_events_read() by providing 0 as count, this locks up a system. Fix this by rewriting the ring buffer implementation with kfifo and simplify the code. This fixes CVE-2019-3819. v2: fix an execution logic and add a comment v3: use __set_current_state() instead of set_current_state() Backport to v4.4: some (tree-wide) patches are missing in v4.4 so cherry-pick relevant pieces from: * 6396bb22 ("treewide: kzalloc() -> kcalloc()") * a9a08845 ("vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement") * 92529623 ("HID: debug: improve hid_debug_event()") * 174cd4b1 ("sched/headers: Prepare to move signal wakeup & sigpending methods from <linux/sched.h> into <linux/sched/signal.h>") Link: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1669187 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.18+ Fixes: cd667ce2 ("HID: use debugfs for events/reports dumping") Fixes: 717adfda ("HID: debug: check length before copy_to_user()") Signed-off-by: Vladis Dronov <vdronov@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoires@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Juerg Haefliger <juergh@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Khalid Elmously <khalid.elmously@canonical.com>
