[PATCH 0/3] sysfb: Fix display output on Lenovo D330 (and others)

[PATCH 0/3] sysfb: Fix display output on Lenovo D330 (and others)

[Thomas Zimmermann]

The kernel mis-interprets the display geometry given by the Lenovo
D330 as incorrect. The values are correct, but the display output
is rotated by 90°. With the kernel's firmware quirk applied the output
is garbled.

Remove the firmware quirk for the Lenovo D330 and let DRM's sysfb
drivers set the correct panel orientation instead. To make this work
for any display mode, use the panel size for looking up the correct
orientation.

Tested on a Lenovo D330-10IGM IdeaPad.

  drm/edid: Add drm_edid_get_preferred_size()
  drm/sysfb: Use preferred panel size for panel orientation quirks
  firmware/sysfb: Remove rotation quirk for Lenovo D330

[Severity: High]
Does this safely handle non-compliant or corrupted EDIDs where the first
detailed timing block might be a Display Descriptor rather than a pixel
timing descriptor?

In the EDID specification, a detailed timing block is only a Detailed Timing
Descriptor if its pixel clock is non-zero. If the pixel clock is 0, the block
is a Display Descriptor like an ASCII monitor name. By unconditionally
accessing it as pixel data without validating it, could we end up reading
overlapping union fields and returning garbage display geometry data to the
driver?

[Severity: High]
Does this logic incorrectly dereference the pointers before checking if they
are valid?

The kernel doc mentions that width and height are optional, which implies
callers might pass a NULL pointer. If a caller passes NULL for width or
height, evaluating if (*width) will cause a NULL pointer dereference crash.

Additionally, if a caller passes a valid pointer to a 0-initialized variable,
evaluating if (*width) will result in false, skipping the assignment entirely
and leaving the output as 0. Should these conditions check if (width) and
if (height) instead?

This is just a pretty stupid typo. Will be fixed.

[PATCH 2/3] drm/sysfb: Use preferred panel size for panel orientation quirks

[Thomas Zimmermann]

Sysfb drivers currently use the given display mode for looking up the
panel orientation. But the look-up table stores the native geometry of
the panels, so the lookup fails if the current mode sizes differs.

Get the panel's native geometry with drm_edid_get_preferred_size() from
the EDID and use it for looking up the panel orientation.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but I wanted to ask about the
semantics of drm_edid_get_preferred_size(). In drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid.c,
it does:

	if (*width)
		*width = (pt->hactive_hblank_hi & 0xf0) << 4 | pt->hactive_lo;
	if (*height)
		*height = (pt->vactive_vblank_hi & 0xf0) << 4 | pt->vactive_lo;

This incorrectly checks the values pointed to by width/height instead of
validating the pointers themselves. A caller passing a NULL pointer for
either width or height will cause a kernel panic (NULL pointer dereference).

Furthermore, passing a pointer to a zero-initialized variable evaluates to
false, causing the function to silently skip populating the preferred size.
While this patch bypasses the crash by passing non-NULL pointers initialized
to >0, is it worth fixing the generic API so other callers do not trip over
this?

[Severity: Medium]
Does parsing an unvalidated EDID block pose a risk here? The sysfb drivers
parse unvalidated EDID data to extract the preferred size.

If the firmware provides a corrupted EDID where only the 8-byte header is
valid, this code extracts geometry from potentially corrupted firmware data,
which can result in bogus resolutions being passed to the panel orientation
quirk lookup.

[Severity: Medium]
Similarly here in ofdrm_device_create(), unvalidated EDID data is parsed.
Could this lead to bogus geometry being extracted from a corrupted EDID?

[Severity: Medium]
Likewise in vesadrm_device_create(), parsing unvalidated EDID data may
result in bogus resolutions being passed to the panel orientation quirk
lookup. Should the EDID be fully validated first?

If we read bogus values, the panel orientation could be wrong. Nothing 
worse happens.  Apart from that, most drivers call 
drm_edid_header_is_valid(). I'll add this call to ofdrm, which is 
currently missing it.

That's just fallout from the typo in patch 1.

[PATCH 3/3] firmware/sysfb: Remove rotation quirk for Lenovo D330

[Thomas Zimmermann]

The Lenovo D330 is a notebook with unmountable display. The display
is installed in landscape orientation, but the display mode is in
portrait orientation. By default, the display output is rotated to
the left by 90°.

The sysfb quirk breaks the display by swapping display width and
height; and thus mixing up the display geometry. Fix this by keeping
the display as-is. The sysfb DRM drivers, usually efidrm, will pick
the correct panel orientation for the display.

Tested on a Lenovo D330-10IGM IdeaPad.

The Sashiko bot warns that the quirk is required on the device's older 
UEFI firmware revisions.  I can confirm that the quirk breaks display 
output for the latest firmware (ver 8NCN43WW).  How is this usually 
being handled? Can I expect affected users to update their firmware?

Best regards
Thomas
