patch "staging: comedi: ni_mio_common: Fix divide-by-zero for DIO cmdtest" added to staging-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    staging: comedi: ni_mio_common: Fix divide-by-zero for DIO cmdtest

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: staging: comedi: ni_mio_common: Fix divide-by-zero for DIO cmdtest

`ni_cdio_cmdtest()` validates Comedi asynchronous commands for the DIO
subdevice (subdevice 2) of supported National Instruments M-series
cards.  It is called when handling the `COMEDI_CMD` and `COMEDI_CMDTEST`
ioctls for this subdevice.  There are two causes for a possible
divide-by-zero error when validating that the `stop_arg` member of the
passed-in command is not too large.

The first cause for the divide-by-zero is that calls to
`comedi_bytes_per_scan()` are only valid once the command has been
copied to `s->async->cmd`, but that copy is only done for the
`COMEDI_CMD` ioctl.  For the `COMEDI_CMDTEST` ioctl, it will use
whatever was left there by the previous `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl, if any.
(This is very likely, as it is usual for the application to use
`COMEDI_CMDTEST` before `COMEDI_CMD`.) If there has been no previous,
valid `COMEDI_CMD` for this subdevice, then `comedi_bytes_per_scan()`
will return 0, so the subsequent division in `ni_cdio_cmdtest()` of
`s->async->prealloc_bufsz / comedi_bytes_per_scan(s)` will be a
divide-by-zero error.  To fix this error, call a new function
`comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd(s, cmd)`, based on the existing
`comedi_bytes_per_scan(s)` but using a specified `struct comedi_cmd` for
its calculations.  (Also refactor `comedi_bytes_per_scan()` to call the
new function.)

Once the first cause for the divide-by-zero has been fixed, the second
cause is that `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd()` can legitimately return 0 if
the `scan_end_arg` member of the `struct comedi_cmd` being tested is 0.
Fix it by only performing the division (and validating that `stop_arg`
is no more than the maximum value) if `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd()`
returns a non-zero value.

The problem was reported on the COMEDI mailing list here:
