commit 82e61c3909db51d91b9d3e2071557b6435018b80 upstream.
Both read-side users of func_table/func_buf need locking. Without that,
one can easily confuse the code by repeatedly setting altering strings
like:
while (1)
for (a = 0; a < 2; a++) {
struct kbsentry kbs = {};
strcpy((char *)kbs.kb_string, a ? ".\n" : "88888\n");
ioctl(fd, KDSKBSENT, &kbs);
}
When that program runs, one can get unexpected output by holding F1
(note the unxpected period on the last line):
.
88888
.8888
So protect all accesses to 'func_table' (and func_buf) by preexisting
'func_buf_lock'.
It is easy in 'k_fn' handler as 'puts_queue' is expected not to sleep.
On the other hand, KDGKBSENT needs a local (atomic) copy of the string
because copy_to_user can sleep. Use already allocated, but unused
'kbs->kb_string' for that purpose.
Note that the program above needs at least CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG.
This depends on the previous patch and on the func_buf_lock lock added

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
