apm821xx: fix crash/panic related to SATA/SSD choice
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Ticerex on the OpenWrt Forum reported a gnarly crash when
he was using Samsung 840 and 850 EVOs with his MyBook Live:

This turned out this is an issue with upstream changing
ATA_TAG_INTERNAL's value from 31 to 32 during 4.18 release.
Update "SATA_DWC_QCMD_MAX" to account for that.

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] ata: sata_dwc_460ex: Fix crash due to OOB write
To: linux-ide@vger.kernel.org
Cc: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@opensource.wdc.com>,

the driver uses libata's "tag" values from in various arrays.
Since the mentioned patch bumped the ATA_TAG_INTERNAL to 32,
the value of the SATA_DWC_QCMD_MAX needs to be bumped to 33.

Otherwise ATA_TAG_INTERNAL cause a crash like this:

this is because sata_dwc_dma_xfer_complete() NULLs the
dma_pending's next neighbour "chan" (a *dma_chan struct) in
this '32' case right here (line ~735):
> hsdevp->dma_pending[tag] = SATA_DWC_DMA_PENDING_NONE;

Then the next time, a dma gets issued; dma_dwc_xfer_setup() passes
the NULL'd hsdevp->chan to the dmaengine_slave_config() which then
causes the crash.
