Subject: some divide by zero bugs in >fb_check_var() functions
Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2014 22:35:26 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140124223503.GA4251@elgon.mountain> (raw)

My static checker find a number of divide by zero bugs in
->fb_check_var() functions.  The call tree looks like this:

  do_fb_ioctl() <- get var from the user.
  -> fb_set_var()
     -> info->fbops->fb_check_var(var, info); <- divide by zero bugs

I wonder if we could add some checking in fb_set_var() to prevent this.
