[PATCH 4.4 28/44] ALSA: hda: Hardening for potential Spectre v1

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Apr 30 2018 - 16:35:59 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 69fa6f19b95597618ab30438a27b67ad93daa7c7 upstream.

As recently Smatch suggested, one place in HD-audio hwdep ioctl codes
may expand the array directly from the user-space value with
speculation:
sound/pci/hda/hda_local.h:467 get_wcaps() warn: potential spectre issue 'codec->wcaps'

As get_wcaps() itself is a fairly frequently called inline function,
and there is only one single call with a user-space value, we replace
only the latter one to open-code locally with array_index_nospec()
hardening in this patch.
