This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled drm: Pad drm_mode_get_connector to 64-bit boundary to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 81019eb6f5b7e60b588128f63e0bfaf34b650bcf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Wed, 16 Oct 2013 09:49:02 +0100 Subject: drm: Pad drm_mode_get_connector to 64-bit boundary commit bc5bd37ce48c66e9192ad2e7231e9678880f6f8e upstream. Pavel Roskin reported that DRM_IOCTL_MODE_GETCONNECTOR was overwritting the 4 bytes beyond the end of its structure with a 32-bit userspace running on a 64-bit kernel. This is due to the padding gcc inserts as the drm_mode_get_connector struct includes a u64 and its size is not a natural multiple of u64s. 64-bit kernel: sizeof(drm_mode_get_connector)=80, alignof=8 sizeof(drm_mode_get_encoder)=20, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_modeinfo)=68, alignof=4 32-bit userspace: sizeof(drm_mode_get_connector)=76, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_get_encoder)=20, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_modeinfo)=68, alignof=4 Fortuituously we can insert explicit padding to the tail of our structures without breaking ABI.
