Hi,

Sorry about reply to you so late,

our  downstream (product kernel side) userspace GPU/DC driver

has been tested out a few bugs, I'm asking to fulfill my duty to that part
all days.

I may slow to reply, but I really love to reply.

The direct reason is that damage rectange computed by
drm_fb_helper_memory_range_to_clip() does not guaranteed to be
in-bound.
It is already results in workaround code populate to elsewhere. Another
reason is that exposing a larger buffer size than the actual needed
help
to trigger this bug intrinsic in drm_fb_helper_memory_range_to_clip().

Others fbdev emulation solutions write to the GEM buffer directly, they
won't reproduce this bug because the .fb_dirty function callback do not
being hooked, so no chance is given to
drm_fb_helper_memory_range_to_clip()
to generate a out-of-bound when drm_fb_helper_sys_write() is called.

This patch break the trigger condition of this bug by shrinking the
shadow
buffer size to sizes->surface_height * buffer->fb->pitches[0].

GEM
buffer")'

So I read core some more and stumbled over drm_fb_helper_deferred_io().
Which has all the code and comments about this, including limiting.

I think it would be clearer if we fix the issue there, instead of
passing
limits around in obscure places that then again get broken?
No, it is more obscure doing that way...


As the size of the shadow screen buffer will be exposed to userspace.

The size 'helper->fb->height * helper->fb->pitches[0]' is a
exactly(best) fit,

You are guaranteed to waste at lease one byte by increasing one byte,

and can not store all pixels by decreasing one byte (In the case where
`helper->fb->pitches[0] = helper->fb->width * 4`).

It implicitly tell the userspace do not go beyond that boundary.

although userspace program can still choose to write after EOF,

But it is for test purpose, to test the kernel if it can return a
-EFBIG or not.

The thing is,
Thomas both authored the limit checks in drm_fb_helper_deferred_io() and
the patch which broken them again, so clearly this isn't very
obvious. I'm
thinking of something like this:

This is just to mitigate the mistakes already has been made,

because it do not do a good splitting between the *clip* part and the
*damage update* part.

An ideal clipping do not obscure its updating backend with a
out-of-bound damage rectangle.

Why did the drm_fb_helper_memory_range_to_clip() can not do a good job
in all case

to pass its backend a always meaningful damage rect ?

max_off = min(max_off, total_size);
if (min_off < max_off) {


I think that would make it utmost clear on what we're doing and why.
Otherwise we're just going to re-create the same bug again, like we've
done already :-)
No, we create no bugs, we fix one.

Thanks.

But honestly I do not have strong feel toward this, I just type what I'm
understand without seeing you resend a V3.

It's OK in overall, I will help to test this tomorrow. :-)
Apologies for making you jump around all the time and doing different
versions of the same bugfix :-/
No,  I do not mind.  I'm wondering if you are testing me.
Nah I'm really not any clearer on this than you :-/

I think this one here is ok to merge,
NO,  to be honest,  this version is not ok.

I have just tested it on LoongArch . It does not prevent out-of-bound on
LoongArch.

bellow is the call trace when running the fbdev test of IGT.

I just thought when looking at
the history that we revert the exact patch without any other changes
or comments,
Other part of that patch(except this line) may still useful, at least for
cleanup purpose.
and usually that means someone will come up with the same
cleanup idea again, and then we'll have a bug again. So maybe a
comment or a WARN_ON or something else would be good.
A  WARN_ON is acceptable.

I guess we could also do your patch, but put a WARN_ON that the
computed total_size is never bigger than the drm_fb size into
drm_fb_helper_deferred_io()? That would also make sure that this bug
doesn't get resurrected again.
Best to merge V2 [1] of this series, that is what I am really fixed.

Maybe somebody can help to refine it, to add a better description about this
question and so on.

[1] https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/532143/?series=116454&rev=1
Ok, I guess this really is the safest one. For that patch, do we need the
change to screen_size in drm_fbdev_generic_helper_fb_probe()?

With that patch, we can expose a larger screen_size to userspace,

change screen_size to `helper->fb->height * helper->fb->pitches[0]` is *NOT* necessary.


But I though it maybe better to keep it line with the counter part in drm_fbdev_dma_helper_fb_probe().

make it double security.


I'm still
not entirely clear.

Because  drm_fb_helper_memory_range_to_clip() function will also be called by

drm_fb_helper_sys_write() function(in drm_fb_helper.c) when running fbdev test.


Put restriction in drm_fb_helper_deferred_io() function solely is not enough,  because

drm_fb_helper_deferred_io() is for mmap code path to writing the shadow buffer.

It relative fast, because it does not need another copy from user.


However , drm_fb_helper_sys_write() is another code path to write to the shadow screen buffer.

it need copy from user to the kernel first, then copy to the shadow screen buffer,

and finally copy from the shadow to the real gem buffer.   Every time you want to write

the screen buffer, you have to issue a system call.


But for the mmap code path, I only need map it to userspace address space once.

Yeah, only once, with write-combine page table caching property for video ram.

but for the shadow buffer in system ram, using cached is more fast and reliable

because of cache coherent  related concerns...

So, we have two ways to writing the shadow(screen) buffer in the system ram.


If it works without that change I think that's clearer
for a minimal bugfix, if so can you send that out as v4 please?

OK. But I still want to fix the two by one shot.

It makes me feel comfortable.

Also please Cc: Geert on whatever you're resubmitting, so he can test too
and we can make sure it's still fixing the shmob issue he's seeing.

And finally please include a link to this discussion here with a note that
just reverting the screen_size changes is not enough:
