Linux kernel source tree
d93a6caab5
Previously, when the driver was printing hex dumps, the buffer was cast
to an 8 byte long and printed using string formatters. If the buffer
size was not a multiple of 8 then a read buffer overflow was possible.
Therefore, create a new ibmvnic function that loops over a buffer and
calls hex_dump_to_buffer instead.
This patch address KASAN reports like the one below:
ibmvnic 30000003 env3: Login Buffer:
ibmvnic 30000003 env3: 01000000af000000
<...>
ibmvnic 30000003 env3: 2e6d62692e736261
ibmvnic 30000003 env3: 65050003006d6f63
==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ibmvnic_login+0xacc/0xffc [ibmvnic]
Read of size 8 at addr c0000001331a9aa8 by task ip/17681

The buggy address is located 168 bytes inside of
allocated 175-byte region [c0000001331a9a00, c0000001331a9aaf)

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 reStructuredText 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.
