[PATCH] proc_sysctl: clamp sizes using table->maxlen
From: Alex Xu (Hello71)
Date: Mon Feb 15 2021 - 09:54:49 EST
This issue was discussed at [0] and following, and the solution was to
clamp the size at KMALLOC_MAX_LEN. However, KMALLOC_MAX_LEN is a maximum
allocation, and may be difficult to allocate in low memory conditions.
Since maxlen is already exposed, we can allocate approximately the right
amount directly, fixing up those drivers which set a bogus maxlen. These
drivers were located based on those which had copy_x_user replaced in
32927393dc1c, on the basis that other drivers either use builtin proc_*
handlers, or do not access the data pointer. The latter is OK because
maxlen only needs to be an upper limit.

Fixes: 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler")
