ACPICA: Avoid sequence overread in call to strncmp()

2025-06-27T10:07:32+00:00

[ Upstream commit 64b9dfd0776e9c38d733094859a09f13282ce6f8 ] ACPICA commit 8b83a8d88dfec59ea147fad35fc6deea8859c58c ap_get_table_length() checks if tables are valid by calling ap_is_valid_header(). The latter then calls ACPI_VALIDATE_RSDP_SIG(Table->Signature). ap_is_valid_header() accepts struct acpi_table_header as an argument, so the signature size is always fixed to 4 bytes. The problem is when the string comparison is between ACPI-defined table signature and ACPI_SIG_RSDP. Common ACPI table header specifies the Signature field to be 4 bytes long[1], with the exception of the RSDP structure whose signature is 8 bytes long "RSD PTR " (including the trailing blank character)[2]. Calling strncmp(sig, rsdp_sig, 8) would then result in a sequence overread[3] as sig would be smaller (4 bytes) than the specified bound (8 bytes). As a workaround, pass the bound conditionally based on the size of the signature being passed.

ACPICA: Use uintptr_t and offsetof() in Linux kernel builds

2022-01-25T17:41:23+00:00

To avoid "performing pointer subtraction with a null pointer has undefined behavior" compiler warnings, use uintptr_t and offsetof() that are always available during Linux kernel builds to define acpi_uintptr_t and the ACPI_TO_INTEGER() and ACPI_OFFSET() macros. Based on earlier proposal from Arnd Bergmann. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20210927121338.938994-1-arnd@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann

ACPICA: Add support for PCC Opregion special context data

2021-12-27T16:01:28+00:00

ACPICA commit 55526e8a6133cbf5a9cc0fb75a95dbbac6eb98e6 PCC Opregion added in ACPIC 6.3 requires special context data similar to GPIO and Generic Serial Bus as it needs to know the internal PCC buffer and its length as well as the PCC channel index when the opregion handler is being executed by the OSPM. Lets add support for the special context data needed by PCC Opregion.

ACPICA: Macros: Remove ACPI_PHYSADDR_TO_PTR

2021-12-27T16:01:28+00:00

ACPICA commit 52abebd410945ec55afb4dd8b7150e8a39b5c960 This macro was only ever used when stuffing pointers into physical addresses and trying to later reconstruct the pointer, which is implementation-defined as to whether that can be done. Now that all such operations are gone, the macro is unused, and should be removed to avoid such practices being reintroduced.

ACPICA: Use original data_table_region pointer for accesses

2021-12-27T16:01:28+00:00

ACPICA commit d9eb82bd7515989f0b29d79deeeb758db4d6529c Currently the pointer to the table is cast to acpi_physical_address and later cast back to a pointer to be dereferenced. Whether or not this is supported is implementation-defined. On CHERI, and thus Arm's experimental Morello prototype architecture, pointers are represented as capabilities, which are unforgeable bounded pointers, providing always-on fine-grained spatial memory safety. This means that any pointer cast to a plain integer will lose all its associated metadata, and when cast back to a pointer it will give a null-derived pointer (one that has the same metadata as null but an address equal to the integer) that will trap on any dereference. As a result, this is an implementation where acpi_physical_address cannot be used as a hack to store real pointers. Thus, add a new field to struct acpi_object_region to store the pointer for table regions, and propagate it to acpi_ex_data_table_space_handler via the region context, to use a more portable implementation that supports CHERI.

ACPICA: actypes.h: Expand the ACPI_ACCESS_ definitions

2021-12-27T16:01:27+00:00

ACPICA commit bc02c76d518135531483dfc276ed28b7ee632ce1 The current ACPI_ACCESS_*_WIDTH defines do not provide a way to test that size is small enough to not cause an overflow when applied to a 32-bit integer. Rather than adding more magic numbers, add ACPI_ACCESS_*_SHIFT, ACPI_ACCESS_*_MAX, and ACPI_ACCESS_*_DEFAULT #defines and redefine ACPI_ACCESS_*_WIDTH in terms of the new #defines. This was inititally reported on Linux where a size of 102 in ACPI_ACCESS_BIT_WIDTH caused an overflow error in the SPCR initialization code.
