[PATCH] dma-buf: Replace strlcpy() with strscpy()

by Kees Cook

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated[1]. Additionally, it returns the size of the source string, not the resulting size of the destination string. In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely[2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy().

[PATCH v2 0/8] dma-buf: heaps: Add secure heap

by Yong Wu

This patchset adds three secure heaps: 1) secure_mtk_cm: secure chunk memory for MediaTek SVP (Secure Video Path). The buffer is reserved for the secure world after bootup and it is used for vcodec's ES/working buffer; 2) secure_mtk_cma: secure CMA memory for MediaTek SVP. This buffer is dynamically reserved for the secure world and will be got when we start playing secure videos, Once the security video playing is complete, the CMA will be released. This heap is used for the vcodec's frame buffer. 3) secure_cma: Use the kerne CMA ops as the allocation ops. currently it is a draft version for Vijay and Jaskaran. For the first two MediaTek heaps will be used v4l2[1] and drm[2], thus we cannot put it in v4l2 or drm, and create a common heap for them. Meanwhile We have a limited number of hardware entries to protect memory, we cannot protect memory arbitrarily, thus the secure memory management is actually inside OPTEE. The kernel just tells the TEE what size I want and the TEE will return a "secure handle".

This means the current vcodec/DRM upstream code doesn't match this. 4) Add a normal CMA heap. currently it should be a draft version. 5) Regarding the UUID, I still use hard code, but put it in a private data which allow the others could set their own UUID. What's more, UUID is necessary for the session with TEE. If we don't have it, we can't communicate with the TEE, including the get_uuid interface, which tries to make uuid more generic, not working.

Re: [PATCH v2 0/8] dma-buf: heaps: Add secure heap

by Jeffrey Kardatzke

The main goal is for secure video playback, and to also enable other potential uses of this in the future. The 'secure dma-heap' will be used to allocate dma_buf objects that reference memory in the secure world that is inaccessible/unmappable by the non-secure (i.e. kernel/userspace) world. That memory will be used by the secure world to store secure information (i.e. decrypted media content). The dma_bufs allocated from the kernel will be passed to V4L2 for video decoding (as input and output). They will also be used by the drm system for rendering of the content. Hope that helps.

Splitting pp headers again is not an option, we already split it into types and helpers. The series doesn't apply and it's a bit hard for me to, in between LPC talks, figure out how to extract your patches from the GH UI to take a proper look :( We can defer this for now, and hopefully v4 will apply to net-next. But it will need to get solved.

Perhaps adding something to ndo_features_check? We need some form of capabilities. I was expecting to add that as part of the queue API. Either a new field in struct net_device or in ndos. I tend to put static driver caps of this nature into ops. See for instance .supported_ring_params in ethtool ops.
