syzbot is reporting OOB write at vga16fb_imageblit() [1], for
resize_screen() from ioctl(VT_RESIZE) returns 0 without checking whether
requested rows/columns fit the amount of memory reserved for the graphical
screen if current mode is KD_GRAPHICS.
----------
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <linux/kd.h>
#include <linux/vt.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
const int fd = open("/dev/char/4:1", O_RDWR);
struct vt_sizes vt = { 0x4100, 2 };
ioctl(fd, KDSETMODE, KD_GRAPHICS);
ioctl(fd, VT_RESIZE, &vt);
ioctl(fd, KDSETMODE, KD_TEXT);
return 0;
}
----------
Allow framebuffer drivers to return -EINVAL, by moving vc->vc_mode !=
KD_GRAPHICS check from resize_screen() to fbcon_resize().

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.
