Subject[PATCH 5.10 03/97] floppy: use a statically allocated error counter
Date
From: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>

commit f71f01394f742fc4558b3f9f4c7ef4c4cf3b07c8 upstream.

Interrupt handler bad_flp_intr() may cause a UAF on the recently freed
request just to increment the error count. There's no point keeping
that one in the request anyway, and since the interrupt handler uses a
static pointer to the error which cannot be kept in sync with the
pending request, better make it use a static error counter that's reset
for each new request. This reset now happens when entering
redo_fd_request() for a new request via set_next_request().

One initial concern about a single error counter was that errors on one
floppy drive could be reported on another one, but this problem is not
real given that the driver uses a single drive at a time, as that
PC-compatible controllers also have this limitation by using shared
signals. As such the error count is always for the "current" drive.
