[PATCH v4 0/2] media: pci: Fix invalid access to file *

[Jacopo Mondi]

Since commits
7b9eb53e8591 ("media: cx18: Access v4l2_fh from file")
9ba9d11544f9 ("media: ivtv: Access v4l2_fh from file")

All the ioctl handlers access their private data structures
from file *

The ivtv and cx18 drivers call the ioctl handlers from their
DVB layer without a valid file *, causing invalid memory access.

The issue has been reported by smatch in
"[bug report] media: cx18: Access v4l2_fh from file"

Fix this by providing wrappers for the ioctl handlers to be
used by the DVB layer that do not require a valid file *.

[PATCH v4 1/2] media: cx18: Fix invalid access to file *

[Jacopo Mondi]

Sice commit 7b9eb53e8591 ("media: cx18: Access v4l2_fh from file")
all ioctl handlers have been ported to operate on the file * first
function argument.

The cx18 DVB layer calls cx18_init_on_first_open() when the driver needs
to start streaming. This function calls the s_input(), s_std() and
s_frequency() ioctl handlers directly, but being called from the driver
context, it doesn't have a valid file * to pass them. This causes
the ioctl handlers to deference an invalid pointer.

Fix this by moving the implementation of those ioctls to functions that
take a cx18 pointer instead of a file pointer, and turn the V4L2 ioctl
handlers into wrappers that get the cx18 from the file. When calling
from cx18_init_on_first_open(), pass the cx18 pointer directly. This
allows removing the fake fh in cx18_init_on_first_open().

The bug has been reported by Smatch:

--> 1223         cx18_s_input(NULL, &fh, video_input);
The patch adds a new dereference of "file" but some of the callers pass a
NULL pointer.

[PATCH v4 2/2] media: ivtv: Fix invalid access to file *

[Jacopo Mondi]

Since commit 9ba9d11544f9 ("media: ivtv: Access v4l2_fh from file")
all ioctl handlers have been ported to operate on the file * first
function argument.

The ivtv DVB layer calls ivtv_init_on_first_open() when the driver
needs to start streaming. This function calls the s_input() and
s_frequency() ioctl handlers directly, but being called from the driver
context, it doesn't have a valid file * to pass them. This causes the
ioctl handlers to deference an invalid pointer.

Fix this by moving the implementation of those ioctls to two helper
functions.

The ivtv_do_s_input() helper accepts a struct ivtv * as first argument,
which is easily accessible in ivtv_init_on_first_open() as well as from
the file * argument of the ioctl handler.

The ivtv_s_frequency() takes an ivtv_stream * instead. The stream * can
safely be accessed in ivtv_init_on_first_open() where it is hard-coded
to the IVTV_ENC_STREAM_TYPE_MPG stream type, as well as from the ioctl
handler as a valid stream type is associated to each open file handle
depending on which video device node has been opened in the ivtv_open()
file operation.

The bug has been reported by Smatch.
