From: Peter Hurley Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2015 19:30:21 +0000 (-0500) Subject: tty: Prevent ldisc drivers from re-using stale tty fields X-Git-Tag: v3.2.85~18 X-Git-Url: https://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=pandora-kernel.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=72bc3e471e03421dd6e1dd71762b3208af8e02a5 tty: Prevent ldisc drivers from re-using stale tty fields commit dd42bf1197144ede075a9d4793123f7689e164bc upstream. Line discipline drivers may mistakenly misuse ldisc-related fields when initializing. For example, a failure to initialize tty->receive_room in the N_GIGASET_M101 line discipline was recently found and fixed [1]. Now, the N_X25 line discipline has been discovered accessing the previous line discipline's already-freed private data [2]. Harden the ldisc interface against misuse by initializing revelant tty fields before instancing the new line discipline.
