Hi

The attached patch fixes a problem where non-drm ioctls are incorrectly handled by drm drivers.

This causes problems when isatty() is called on a file descriptor which was opened on a drm device node. Glibc implements isatty() by invoking the TCGETS ioctl on the fd. TCGETS is 0x5401, so this is handled by drm_ioctl as DRM_IOCTL_GET_UNIQUE, which succeeds, so isatty() returns true.

As a side effect, DRM_IOCTL_GET_UNIQUE also writes to a pointer, in the argument buffer, so the calling application's memory can be corrupted, causing a crash later.

Tested on an Ubuntu 20.10 VM under qemu with virgl:

• "if [ -t 0 ]; then echo is a tty; fi < /dev/dri/card0" outputs nothing
• glxgears still works

Thanks Charles

drm: Return -ENOTTY for non-drm ioctls

Return -ENOTTY from drm_ioctl() when userspace passes in a cmd number
which doesn't relate to the drm subsystem.

Glibc uses the TCGETS ioctl to implement isatty(), and without this
change isatty() returns it incorrectly returns true for drm devices.

To test run this command:
   $ if [ -t 0 ]; then echo is a tty; fi < /dev/dri/card0
which shows "is a tty" without this patch.

This may also modify memory which the userspace application is not
expecting.

I fixed up the formatting here a bit to get git apply-mbox to accept this, please try to use git send-email. Anyway this is bug is as old as drm, did you see whether other subsystems are buggy like this too?

Patch applied to drm-misc-fixes with cc: stable.

Since this is pretty blantant issue, care to also type up an igt tests to verify this stays fixed?
