commit ffb324e6f874121f7dce5bdae5e05d02baae7269 upstream.

syzbot is reporting OOB write at vga16fb_imageblit() [1], for
resize_screen() from ioctl(VT_RESIZE) returns 0 without checking whether
requested rows/columns fit the amount of memory reserved for the graphical
screen if current mode is KD_GRAPHICS.

----------
  #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/stat.h&gt;
  #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/ioctl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/kd.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/vt.h&gt;

  int main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
        const int fd = open("/dev/char/4:1", O_RDWR);
        struct vt_sizes vt = { 0x4100, 2 };

        ioctl(fd, KDSETMODE, KD_GRAPHICS);
        ioctl(fd, VT_RESIZE, &amp;vt);
        ioctl(fd, KDSETMODE, KD_TEXT);
        return 0;
  }
----------

Allow framebuffer drivers to return -EINVAL, by moving vc-&gt;vc_mode !=
KD_GRAPHICS check from resize_screen() to fbcon_resize().

<title>vt: Fix character height handling with VT_RESIZEX</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e8263abc836aa47144a7b2fa86cbf561439b0d77</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 860dafa902595fb5f1d23bbcce1215188c3341e6 upstream.

Restore the original intent of the VT_RESIZEX ioctl's `v_clin' parameter
which is the number of pixel rows per character (cell) rather than the
height of the font used.

For framebuffer devices the two values are always the same, because the
former is inferred from the latter one.  For VGA used as a true text
mode device these two parameters are independent from each other: the
number of pixel rows per character is set in the CRT controller, while
font height is in fact hardwired to 32 pixel rows and fonts of heights
below that value are handled by padding their data with blanks when
loaded to hardware for use by the character generator.  One can change
the setting in the CRT controller and it will update the screen contents
accordingly regardless of the font loaded.

The `v_clin' parameter is used by the `vgacon' driver to set the height
of the character cell and then the cursor position within.  Make the
parameter explicit then, by defining a new `vc_cell_height' struct
member of `vc_data', set it instead of `vc_font.height' from `v_clin' in
the VT_RESIZEX ioctl, and then use it throughout the `vgacon' driver
except where actual font data is accessed which as noted above is
independent from the CRTC setting.

This way the framebuffer console driver is free to ignore the `v_clin'
parameter as irrelevant, as it always should have, avoiding any issues
attempts to give the parameter a meaning there could have caused, such
as one that has led to commit 988d0763361b ("vt_ioctl: make VT_RESIZEX
behave like VT_RESIZE"):

 "syzbot is reporting UAF/OOB read at bit_putcs()/soft_cursor() [1][2],
  for vt_resizex() from ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) allows setting font height
  larger than actual font height calculated by con_font_set() from
  ioctl(PIO_FONT). Since fbcon_set_font() from con_font_set() allocates
  minimal amount of memory based on actual font height calculated by
  con_font_set(), use of vt_resizex() can cause UAF/OOB read for font
  data."

The problem first appeared around Linux 2.5.66 which predates our repo
history, but the origin could be identified with the old MIPS/Linux repo
also at: &lt;git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux.git&gt;
as commit 9736a3546de7 ("Merge with Linux 2.5.66."), where VT_RESIZEX
code in `vt_ioctl' was updated as follows:

 		if (clin)
-			video_font_height = clin;
+			vc-&gt;vc_font.height = clin;

making the parameter apply to framebuffer devices as well, perhaps due
to the use of "font" in the name of the original `video_font_height'
variable.  Use "cell" in the new struct member then to avoid ambiguity.

<content type='text'>
commit a90c275eb144c1b755f04769e1f29d832d6daeaf upstream.

Revert the removal of code handling extra VT_RESIZEX ioctl's parameters
beyond those that VT_RESIZE supports, fixing a functional regression
causing `svgatextmode' not to resize the VT anymore.

As a consequence of the reverted change when the video adapter is
reprogrammed from the original say 80x25 text mode using a 9x16
character cell (720x400 pixel resolution) to say 80x37 text mode and the
same character cell (720x592 pixel resolution), the VT geometry does not
get updated and only upper two thirds of the screen are used for the VT,
and the lower part remains blank.  The proportions change according to
text mode geometries chosen.

Revert the change verbatim then, bringing back previous VT resizing.

commit 211b4d42b70f1c1660feaa968dac0efc2a96ac4d upstream.

syzbot reported memory leak in tty/vt.
The problem was in VT_DISALLOCATE ioctl cmd.
After allocating unimap with PIO_UNIMAP it wasn't
freed via VT_DISALLOCATE, but vc_cons[currcons].d was
zeroed.

reset_vc() uses a "!in_interrupt()" conditional before resetting the
palettes, which is a blocking operation. Since commit
   8b6312f4dcc1e ("[PATCH] vt: refactor console SAK processing")

all calls are invoked from a workqueue process context, with the
blocking console lock always acquired.

Remove the "!in_interrupt()" check.

This converts the keyboard_tasklet to use the new API in
commit 12cc923f1ccc ("tasklet: Introduce new initialization API")

The new API changes the argument passed to the callback function, but
fortunately the argument isn't used so it is straight forward to use
DECLARE_TASKLET_DISABLED() rather than DECLARE_TASKLET_DISABLED_OLD().

<title>vt: drop old FONT ioctls</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ff2047fb755d4415ec3c70ac799889371151796d</id>
<content type='text'>
Drop support for these ioctls:
* PIO_FONT, PIO_FONTX
* GIO_FONT, GIO_FONTX
* PIO_FONTRESET

As was demonstrated by commit 90bfdeef83f1 (tty: make FONTX ioctl use
the tty pointer they were actually passed), these ioctls are not used
from userspace, as:
1) they used to be broken (set up font on current console, not the open
   one) and racy (before the commit above)
2) KDFONTOP ioctl is used for years instead

Note that PIO_FONTRESET is defunct on most systems as VGA_CONSOLE is set
on them for ages. That turns on BROKEN_GRAPHICS_PROGRAMS which makes
PIO_FONTRESET just return an error.

We are removing KD_FONT_FLAG_OLD here as it was used only by these
removed ioctls. kd.h header exists both in kernel and uapi headers, so
we can remove the kernel one completely. Everyone includeing kd.h will
now automatically get the uapi one.

There are now unused definitions of the ioctl numbers and "struct
consolefontdesc" in kd.h, but as it is a uapi header, I am not touching
these.

The constant 20 makes the font sum computation signed which can lead to
sign extensions and signed wraps. It's not much of a problem as we build
with -fno-strict-overflow. But if we ever decide not to, be ready, so
switch the constant to unsigned.

Commit 5ce2087ed0eb (Fix default compose table initialization) fixed
unicode table so that the values are not sign extended. The upstream
(kbd package) chose a different approach. They use hexadecimal values.
So use the same, so that the output of loadkeys and our shipped file
correspond more to each other.

loadkeys (from kbd) generates 'unsigned short' instead of 'u_short'
since 2.0.3. It also marks maps as 'static' for longer than kbd's
history.

So adapt the shipped defkeymap.c to conform more to loadkeys output.
