We don't currently do any verification of the firmware that we attempt
to load, and it is possible to cause a kernel oops. For example, see
<http://marc.info/?l=orinoco-users&m=123411762524637>
This series introduces a few nominal checks to reject files which are
incorrectly formatted, and then makes sure that we do not attempt to
read data outside the firmware.
It is still possible to load a duff firmware. However it shouldn't be
possible to cause any permanent damage. Hopefully it can't oops either.

That's how I started, but I didn't like having to pass down struct
net_device/struct orinoco_private just to print an error.

Sure. That (or an enumeration) documents the error codes. A little
tedious though. What if I did something like:
static char * validate_fw(...)
{
if (len < sizeof(*hdr))
return "image too small";
...
return NULL;
}
...
{
char *fw_err = validate_firmware(hdr, fw_entry->size);
if (fw_err != NULL) {
printk(KERN_WARNING "%s: Invalid firmware (%s)\n",
dev->name, fw_err)
err = -EINVAL;
goto abort;
}
}
Dave.
Check the Agere firmware headers for validity before attempting to
download it.

Do this by indicating the end of the appropriate regions of memory.
Note that MAX_PDA_SIZE should only apply to the PDA block read from
flash/EEPROM, and has been erronously applied to the pdr elements.
Remove the macro, and use the actual PDA size passed down by the caller.
We also fix up some of the types used, marking as much as possible
const, and using void* for the end pointers.

I've missed (at least) a couple places where I need to add checks:
* When looking for PDR for Symbol firmware.
* When applying PDR data I need to check the data is within the FW image
I'll update this patch, address Andreys comments on the other, and resubmit.
Dave.

I am afraid this can easily go off sync. Any reason those messages
cannot be printed inline in validate_fw()?
Otherwise what about
#define FW_ERR_OK 0
#define FW_ERR_TOO_SMALL 1
...
static const char *fw_err[] = {
[FW_ERR_TOO_SMALL] = "image too small",
...
if (len < sizeof(*hdr))
return FW_ERR_TOO_SMALL;
...
return FW_ERR_OK;
?
