The current implementation of ALSA control API fully relies on the callbacks of each driver, and there is no verification of the values passed via API. This patch is an attempt to improve the situation slightly by adding the validation code for the values stored via info and get callbacks. The patch adds a new kconfig, CONFIG_SND_CTL_VALIDATION. It depends on CONFIG_SND_DEBUG and off as default since the validation would require a slight overhead including the additional call of info callback at each get callback invocation. When this config is enabled, the values stored by each info callback invocation are verified, namely: - Whether the info type is valid - Whether the number of enum items is non-zero - Whether the given info count is within the allowed boundary Similarly, the values stored at each get callback are verified as well: - Whether the values are within the given range - Whether the values are aligned with the given step - Whether any further changes are seen in the data array over the given info count The last point helps identifying a possibly invalid data type access, typically a case where the info callback declares the type being SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_TYPE_ENUMERATED while the get/put callbacks store the values in value.integer.value[] array. When a validation fails, the ALSA core logs an error message including the device and the control ID, and the API call also returns an error. So, with the new validation turned on, the driver behavior difference may be visible on user-space, too -- it's intentional, though, so that we can catch an error more clearly. The patch also introduces a new ctl access type, SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_SKIP_CHECK. A driver may pass this flag with other access bits to indicate that the ctl element won't be verified. It's useful when a driver code is specially written to access the data greater than info->count size by some reason. For example, this flag is actually set now in HD-audio HDMI codec driver which needs to clear the data array in the case of the disconnected monitor. Also, the PCM channel-map helper code is slightly modified to avoid the false-positive hit by this validation code, too.
