Linux kernel source tree
Rewrite the parser for the vendor firmware descriptor with the following improvements. - Validate the key-value length given in a vendor descriptor against the length of the descriptor. The current code fails to do this and might read more bytes than available. This can lead to out-of-bounds reads of the allocated buffer. - Read raw data with helpers for unaligned data. This allows the code to run on platforms that do now support unaligned memory access by default. - Validate the pixel limit against a default value. The default comes from real-world devices. If the reported number of pixels is significantly above the limit, it is likely invalid. - Drop the obsolete print macros. There is still a warning about invalid firmware descriptors. The rest of the output is bogus.

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 reStructuredText 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.
