Subject: [PATCH 1/2] dmi_scan: Fix missing check for _DMI_ signature in smbios_present()
Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:00:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1361037634.5374.437.camel@deadeye.wl.decadent.org.uk> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1523 bytes --]

Commit 9f9c9cbb6057 ('drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c: fetch dmi version
from SMBIOS if it exists') hoisted the check for "_DMI_" into
dmi_scan_machine(), which means that we don't bother to check for
"_DMI_" at offset 16 in an SMBIOS entry.  smbios_present() may also
call dmi_present() for an address where we found "_SM_", if it failed
further validation.

Check for "_DMI_" in smbios_present() before calling dmi_present().

This has a memcmp() that wasn't in the previous version, so I've not
included the Acked-by or Tested-by for that.

Ben.
