Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/i915/dsc: Fix the macro that calculates DSCC_/DSCA_ PPS reg address<br />
<br />
Commit bd077259d0a9 ("drm/i915/vdsc: Add function to read any PPS<br />
register") defines a new macro to calculate the DSC PPS register<br />
addresses with PPS number as an input. This macro correctly calculates<br />
the addresses till PPS 11 since the addresses increment by 4. So in that<br />
case the following macro works correctly to give correct register<br />
address:<br />
<br />
_MMIO(_DSCA_PPS_0 + (pps) * 4)<br />
<br />
However after PPS 11, the register address for PPS 12 increments by 12<br />
because of RC Buffer memory allocation in between. Because of this<br />
discontinuity in the address space, the macro calculates wrong addresses<br />
for PPS 12 - 16 resulting into incorrect DSC PPS parameter value<br />
read/writes causing DSC corruption.<br />
<br />
This fixes it by correcting this macro to add the offset of 12 for PPS<br />
>=12.<br />
<br />
v3: Add correct paranthesis for pps argument (Jani Nikula)<br />
<br />
