Subject: [PATCH v2] sound/oss: remove offset from load_patch callbacks

Was: [PATCH] sound/oss/midi_synth: prevent underflow, use of
uninitialized value, and signedness issue

The offset passed to midi_synth_load_patch() can be essentially
arbitrary. If it's greater than the header length, this will result in
a copy_from_user(dst, src, negative_val). While this will just return
-EFAULT on x86, on other architectures this may cause memory corruption.
Additionally, the length field of the sysex_info structure may not be
initialized prior to its use. Finally, a signed comparison may result
in an unintentionally large loop.

On suggestion by Takashi Iwai, version two removes the offset argument
from the load_patch callbacks entirely, which also resolves similar
issues in opl3. Compile tested only.

Please correct the comment in the above as well.
With this change, the transfer is no longer partial.

The address must be "buf + p + 4" instead of "buf", when you omit the
offset argument.

Will do.

Likewise.

Are you sure? Previously, the copy of the header was from (buf + p + 4)
to (dst + p + 4) with length (hdr_size - (p + 4)), and now the copy is
from buf to dst with length hdr_size. If I do as you suggest, then the
copy will be from (buf + p + 4) to dst for the header.

Hm, looking back to the original code, I found that I almost forgot
the trickiness of patch-loading in OSS. Actually, it should be like:

err = synth_devs[dev]->load_patch(dev, fmt, buf + p, c, 0);

Here, "buf + p" points to the 4-byte event packet that is being
processed. And, these 4 bytes are also shared with the first 4 bytes
of struct sysex_info or struct sbi_instrument. That is,
sysex_info.key == fmt and sysex_info.device_no == dev.

The problem in the original code is that it tries to avoid extra
copying of these 4 bytes, but failed to handle correctly, by
misinterpreting offs parameter.
