Subject: [v2 1/1] i2c: dev: prevent ZERO_SIZE_PTR deref in i2cdev_ioctl_rdwr()

i2cdev_ioctl_rdwr() allocates i2c_msg.buf using memdup_user(), which
returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR if i2c_msg.len is zero.

Currently i2cdev_ioctl_rdwr() always dereferences the buf pointer in case
of I2C_M_RD | I2C_M_RECV_LEN transfer. That causes a kernel oops in
case of zero len.

Let's check the len against zero before dereferencing buf pointer.

This issue was triggered by syzkaller.

I'd prefer

msgs[i].len > 0

here instead of

!msgs[i].len

because I can parse that more easily. Semantically the patch is fine and
can have my

Excuse me, it will be wrong. We stop if len is 0 to avoid the following
ZERO_SIZE_PTR dereference.

I can change it to "msgs[i].len == 0". But is it really important?

I've carefully tested the current version with the original repro. It works correct.

right you are. I missed the negation.

I don't doubt it, and the code generated is maybe even the same. The
point I wanted to make is that

!len

is harder to read for a human than

len < 1

(or another suitable arithmetic expression). But feel free to disagree
and keep the code as is.

Best regards
Uwe

Friendly ping!

Wolfram, would you like to take this patch?

Applied to for-current with the arithmetic expression changed to '< 1'
to keep in sync with the previous one. Will push out soon, so you can
double check if you are interested.

Thanks for the debugging, Alexander!

Thanks, I like it. An added bonus is also that you don't need to think
about the type of msgs[i].len and what happens if it is negative.
