When doing so, the driver\nrecomputes FIFO arbitration parameters in nv3_arb(), using state->mclk_khz\n(derived from the PRAMDAC MCLK PLL) as a divisor without validating it\nfirst.\n\nIn a normal setup, state->mclk_khz is provided by the real hardware and is\nnon-zero. However, an attacker can construct a malicious or misconfigured\ndevice (e.g. a crafted/emulated PCI device) that exposes a bogus PLL\nconfiguration, causing state->mclk_khz to become zero. Once\nnv3_get_param() calls nv3_arb(), the division by state->mclk_khz in the gns\ncalculation causes a divide error and crashes the kernel.\n\nFix this by checking whether state->mclk_khz is zero and bailing out before\ndoing the division.\n\nThe following log reveals it:\n\nrivafb: setting virtual Y resolution to 2184\ndivide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI\nCPU: 0 PID: 2187 Comm:
