The sequencer event may contain a user-space pointer with its SNDRV_SEQ_EXT_USRPTR bit, and we assure that its delivery is limited with non-atomic mode. Otherwise the copy_from_user() may hit the fault and cause a problem. Although the core code doesn't set such a flag (only set at snd_seq_write()), any wild driver may set it mistakenly and lead to an unexpected crash. This patch adds a sanity check of such events at the delivery core code to filter out the invalid invocation in the atomic mode. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
