Subject: [PATCH] i2c: core-smbus: don't trace smbus_reply data on errors

If an smbus transfer fails, there's no guarantee that the output
buffer was written. So, avoid copying from the output buffer when
tracing after an error. This was 'mostly harmless', but would trip
up kasan checking if left-over cruft in byte 0 is a large length,
causing us to read from unwritten memory.

Hmm, instead of tracing nothing, as this is already a "conditional
trace event", why not add to that condition:

TP_CONDITION(res >= 0 && read_write == I2C_SMBUS_READ),

Unless you want to still trace some data on failure.

The issue we were dealing with was access to uninitialized memory on the stack.
The change '30f939feaeee i2c: fix kernel memory disclosure in dev interface'
does the initialization, so the tracing code is no longer affected.
We just didn't
have that change in the particular kernel we were testing.

Still, Steven's suggestion seems fine to me. Would you like me to create a new
patch based on that?

I am not a tracing expert, but all that was said here tell me that it
would be better to have the change. So, yes, please, that would be
appreciated.

If an smbus transfer fails, there's no guarantee that the output

tracing after an error. This was 'mostly harmless', but would trip
up kasan checking if left-over cruft in byte 0 is a large length,

This looks fine to me, but I'm not sure how the i2c maintainers feel,
but I always require that a new patch version starts a new thread, and
not be part of a older thread release (causes these patches to be
hidden from those that read patches in threading mode).

That sounds reasonable to me. Unless I hear otherwise, I'll create a
v3 as a new thread. Thanks.
