Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y] spi: amd: fix len==0 underflow and FIFO overflow
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 11:06:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109030623.419563-1-zhugl3@xiaopeng.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107060710-failed-5.15-e2f4edfc061e@kernel.org>

From: Weibin Liu <liuwb@xiaopeng.com>

[ Upstream commit e2f4edfc061e493fddde16c4bbe1c4f230f41e4a ]

amd_spi_fifo_xfer() unconditionally decrements xfer->len when a tx_buf
is present. The SPI core does not reject zero-length transfers, so a
transfer submitted through the SPI_IOC_MESSAGE ioctl with len == 0 and
a tx_buf makes the u32 len wrap to 0xFFFFFFFF, and the following
per-byte loop writes far past the FIFO window.

The driver also never checks the transfer length against
AMD_SPI_FIFO_SIZE. The core splits each transfer down to the
controller's max transfer size but does not bound the total message
length, so a long transfer overflows the FIFO with out-of-bounds MMIO
writes (tx) and reads (rx).

Skip zero-length transfers and reject any transfer that would run past
the end of the FIFO window.

Fixes: bbb336f39efc ("spi: spi-amd: Add AMD SPI controller driver support")

[ Adapted for 5.15.y: this tree has no per-message FIFO position tracking, so the check is a per-transfer bound against AMD_SPI_FIFO_SIZE, matching the per-byte loop offsets here. ]
