Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RISC-V: Make port I/O string accessors actually work Fix port I/O string accessors such as `insb', `outsb', etc. which use the physical PCI port I/O address rather than the corresponding memory mapping to get at the requested location, which in turn breaks at least accesses made by our parport driver to a PCIe parallel port such as: PCI parallel port detected: 1415:c118, I/O at 0x1000(0x1008), IRQ 20 parport0: PC-style at 0x1000 (0x1008), irq 20, using FIFO [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,EPP,ECP] causing a memory access fault: Unable to handle kernel access to user memory without uaccess routines at virtual address 0000000000001008 Oops [#1] Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 350 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.0.0-rc2-00283-g10d4879f9ef0-dirty #23 Hardware name: SiFive HiFive Unmatched A00 (DT) epc : parport_pc_fifo_write_block_pio+0x266/0x416 ra : parport_pc_fifo_write_block_pio+0xb4/0x416 epc : ffffffff80542c3e ra : ffffffff80542a8c sp : ffffffd88899fc60 gp : ffffffff80fa2700 tp : ffffffd882b1e900 t0 : ffffffd883d0b000 t1 : ffffffffff000002 t2 : 4646393043330a38 s0 : ffffffd88899fcf0 s1 : 0000000000001000 a0 : 0000000000000010 a1 : 0000000000000000 a2 : ffffffd883d0a010 a3 : 0000000000000023 a4 : 00000000ffff8fbb a5 : ffffffd883d0a001 a6 : 0000000100000000 a7 : ffffffc800000000 s2 : ffffffffff000002 s3 : ffffffff80d28880 s4 : ffffffff80fa1f50 s5 : 0000000000001008 s6 : 0000000000000008 s7 : ffffffd883d0a000 s8 : 0004000000000000 s9 : ffffffff80dc1d80 s10: ffffffd8807e4000 s11: 0000000000000000 t3 : 00000000000000ff t4 : 393044410a303930 t5 : 0000000000001000 t6 : 0000000000040000 status: 0000000200000120 badaddr: 0000000000001008 cause: 000000000000000f [<ffffffff80543212>] parport_pc_compat_write_block_pio+0xfe/0x200 [<ffffffff8053bbc0>] parport_write+0x46/0xf8 [<ffffffff8050530e>] lp_write+0x158/0x2d2 [<ffffffff80185716>] vfs_write+0x8e/0x2c2 [<ffffffff80185a74>] ksys_write+0x52/0xc2 [<ffffffff80185af2>] sys_write+0xe/0x16 [<ffffffff80003770>] ret_from_syscall+0x0/0x2 ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- For simplicity address the problem by adding PCI_IOBASE to the physical address requested in the respective wrapper macros only, observing that the raw accessors such as `__insb', `__outsb', etc. are not supposed to be used other than by said macros. Remove the cast to `long' that is no longer needed on `addr' now that it is used as an offset from PCI_IOBASE and add parentheses around `addr' needed for predictable evaluation in macro expansion. No need to make said adjustments in separate changes given that current code is gravely broken and does not ever work.
