The existing cmdparser for gen7 can be bypassed by specifying batch_len=0 in the execbuf call. This is safe because bypassing simply reduces the cmd-set available. In a later patch we will introduce cmdparsing for gen9, as a security measure, which must be strictly enforced since without it we are vulnerable to DoS attacks. Introduce the concept of 'required' cmd parsing that cannot be bypassed by submitting zero-length bb's. v2: rebase (Mika) v2: rebase (Mika) v3: fix conflict on engine flags (Mika) Signed-off-by: Jon Bloomfield <jon.bloomfield@intel.com> Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Cc: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Cc: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris.p.wilson@intel.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
