Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: prevent division by zero when asking for chipset power
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2011 13:55:15 -0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1320940515-6947-1-git-send-email-eugeni.dodonov@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <e39f63$2kdj3o@fmsmga002.fm.intel.com>
This prevents an in-kernel division by zero which happens when we are
asking for i915_chipset_val too quickly, or within a race condition
between the power monitoring thread and userspace accesses via debugfs.
The issue can be reproduced easily via the following command:
while ``; do cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_emon_status; done
This is particularly dangerous because it can be triggered by
a non-privileged user by just reading the debugfs entry.
This issue was also found independently by Konstantin Belousov
<kostikbel@gmail.com>, who proposed a similar patch.
