Subject: [PATCH v2] iio: dac: ad3552r-hs: use sysfs_emit_at() in data source avail show
Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2026 04:42:44 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260718044244.7-1-bbnpreetsingh@gmail.com> (raw)
ad3552r_hs_show_data_source_avail() formats the available data source
names into a 128-byte stack buffer, but bounds each scnprintf() with
PAGE_SIZE instead of the buffer size, so the bound does not protect
the destination at all.
This cannot overflow today - dbgfs_attr_source[] has two entries,
"normal" and "ramp-16bit", 18 bytes formatted - but the bound stops
protecting the stack the day the table grows.
Found by smatch:
drivers/iio/dac/ad3552r-hs.c:593 ad3552r_hs_show_data_source_avail()
error: scnprintf() 'buf[len]' too small (128 vs 4096)
Instead of shrinking the scnprintf() bound to the buffer size, switch
to sysfs_emit_at(), which enforces the PAGE_SIZE bound internally and
is the preferred helper for formatting attribute-style output; the IIO
core formats its own avail lists the same way in iio_format_list().
sysfs_emit_at() refuses buffers that are not page-aligned, so replace
the stack buffer with a kzalloc()'d page - power-of-two kmalloc()
allocations are naturally aligned, see
Documentation/core-api/memory-allocation.rst.

v2:
- Switch to sysfs_emit_at() with a kzalloc()'d page instead of
bounding scnprintf() with sizeof(buf), as suggested by Andy
Shevchenko. sysfs_emit_at() requires a page-aligned buffer, so
the 128-byte stack buffer cannot stay; add the cleanup.h, slab.h
and sysfs.h includes the new code needs.
- Retitled; v1 was "iio: dac: ad3552r-hs: fix scnprintf() buffer
bound in data source show".
