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.

commit 5ebdffd2 upstream. In case a report is greater than HID_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE, it is truncated, but the report-number byte is not correctly handled. This results in a off-by-one in the following memset, causing a kernel Oops and ensuing system crash. Note: With commit 8ec321e9 ("HID: Fix slab-out-of-bounds read in hid_field_extract") I no longer hit the kernel Oops as we instead fail "controlled" at probe if there is a report too long in the HID report-descriptor. hid_report_raw_event() is an exported symbol, so presumabely we cannot always rely on this being the case. Fixes: 966922f2 ("HID: fix a crash in hid_report_raw_event() function.")
