#1394472 — [PATCH 1/3] drm/i915/fbdev: Fix num_connector references in intel_fb_initial_config()

During boot time, MST devices usually send a ton of hotplug events
irregardless of whether or not any physical hotplugs actually occurred.
Hotplugs mean connectors being created/destroyed, and the number of DRM
connectors changing under us. This isn't a problem if we use
fb_helper->connector_count since we only set it once in the code,
however if we use num_connector from struct drm_mode_config we risk it's
value changing under us. On top of that, there's even a chance that
dev->mode_config.num_connector != fb_helper->connector_count. If the
number of connectors happens to increase under us, we'll end up using
the wrong array size for memcpy and start writing beyond the actual
length of the array, occasionally resulting in kernel panics.

#1394481 — [PATCH 2/3] drm/fb_helper: Fix references to dev->mode_config.num_connector

During boot, MST hotplugs are generally expected (even if no physical
hotplugging occurs) and result in DRM's connector topology changing.
This means that using num_connector from the current mode configuration
can lead to the number of connectors changing under us. This can lead to
some nasty scenarios in fbcon:

- We allocate an array to the size of dev->mode_config.num_connectors.
- MST hotplug occurs, dev->mode_config.num_connectors gets incremented.
- We try to loop through each element in the array using the new value
  of dev->mode_config.num_connectors, and end up going out of bounds
  since dev->mode_config.num_connectors is now larger then the array we
  allocated.

fb_helper->connector_count however, will always remain consistent while
we do a modeset in fb_helper.

Ok, this one looks like it's indeed in the same critical section (within
drm_setup_outputs) as where we allocate the fb helper connector array. So
I think this one here is not needed to fix a bug?

Still makes sense as a patch, but not with cc: stable I think.

#1395183 — Re: [PATCH 2/3] drm/fb_helper: Fix references to dev->mode_config.num_connector

I would Cc it to stable just in case tbh. I picked up on this one since KASAN
was picking up on some of the memcpy() calls around here going out of bounds. I
can include some of the backtraces from that if needed.

So at first I thought this is impossible, because we hold the
dev->mode_config.mutex in all relevant places. But we drop it in-between,
so this can indeed race.

If num_connector < connector_count  this can still go boom. I think we
need to create a local variable

	int num_conn = min(..., ...);

and then use that all throughout. Plus a big comment that fbdev setup
drops locks and hence might become inconsistent.
