      Fix missing sanity check in /dev/sg · 137d01df
      Al Viro authored
      What happens is that a write to /dev/sg is given a request with non-zero
      ->iovec_count combined with zero ->dxfer_len.  Or with ->dxferp pointing
      to an array full of empty iovecs.
      
      Having write permission to /dev/sg shouldn't be equivalent to the
      ability to trigger BUG_ON() while holding spinlocks...

      [ The BUG_ON() got changed to a WARN_ON_ONCE(), but this fixes the
        underlying issue.  - Linus ]

      scsi: don't BUG_ON() empty DMA transfers · fd3fc0b4
      Johannes Thumshirn authored
      Don't crash the machine just because of an empty transfer. Use WARN_ON()
      combined with returning an error.
      
      Found by Dmitry Vyukov and syzkaller.
      
      [ Changed to "WARN_ON_ONCE()". Al has a patch that should fix the root
        cause, but a BUG_ON() is not acceptable in any case, and a WARN_ON()
        might still be a cause of excessive log spamming.
      
        NOTE! If this warning ever triggers, we may end up leaking resources,
        since this doesn't bother to try to clean the command up. So this
        WARN_ON_ONCE() triggering does imply real problems. But BUG_ON() is
        much worse.
      
        People really need to stop using BUG_ON() for "this shouldn't ever
        happen". It makes pretty much any bug worse.     - Linus ]
