PM / devfreq: Fix buffer overflow in trans_stat_show
Fix buffer overflow in trans_stat_show().
Convert simple snprintf to the more secure scnprintf with size of
PAGE_SIZE.
Add condition checking if we are exceeding PAGE_SIZE and exit early from
loop. Also add at the end a warning that we exceeded PAGE_SIZE and that
stats is disabled.
Return -EFBIG in the case where we don't have enough space to write the
full transition table.
Also document in the ABI that this function can return -EFBIG error.
[Backport]
I crafted a custom diff that suits our tree to avoid unnecessary changes
and new features. The key missing dependencies missing from our tree are
as follows:
- commit b5d281f6c16d ("PM / devfreq: Rework freq_table to be local to devfreq struct")
- commit a03dacb0316f ("PM / devfreq: Add cpu based scaling support to passive governor")
- commit 483d557ee9a3 ("PM / devfreq: Clean up the devfreq instance name in sysfs attr")
- commit 1ebd0bc0e8ad ("PM / devfreq: Move statistics to separate struct devfreq_stats")
- commit 14a343968199 ("PM / devfreq: Add clearing transitions stats")
- commit b76b3479dab9 ("PM / devfreq: Change time stats to 64-bit")
- commit 5c0f6c795957 ("PM / devfreq: Add new interrupt_driven flag for governors")
[Fix]
Noble: fixed via stable
Jammy: fixed via stable
Focal: Backport - crafted diff manually, see [Backport]
Bionic: fix sent to esm ML
Xenial: fix sent to esm ML
Trusty: won't fix
[Test Case]
Compile and boot tested
[Where problems could occur]
This fix affects platforms that provide OPP table and request devfreq
feature, an issue with this fix would cause buffer overflow when reading
/sys/class/devfreq/.../trans_stat if the output exceeds PAGE_SIZE.
