[PATCH v2] drm/amdgpu: prevent parameter-space underflow in nested ATOM table calls

From: Aldo Ariel Panzardo

Date: Wed Sep 23 2026 - 11:40:58 EST


atom_op_calltable() invokes a child ATOM table, forwarding the
parent's parameter space with an offset:

amdgpu_atom_execute_table_locked(ctx->ctx, idx,
ctx->ps + ctx->ps_shift,
ctx->ps_size - ctx->ps_shift);

ctx->ps_shift is in dwords (set to ps / 4 in
amdgpu_atom_execute_table_locked()), while ctx->ps_size is the
remaining capacity in bytes. The subtraction therefore mixes units:
a child table requesting 60 bytes (ps_shift = 15 dwords) with only
16 bytes remaining would compute 16 - 15 = 1 instead of the correct
16 - 60 = underflow.

Convert ps_shift to bytes (ps_shift * 4) in both the guard and the
subtraction so the units are consistent and oversized requests are
correctly rejected.

v2: convert ps_shift to bytes (ps_shift * 4) before comparing with
ps_size, fixing the unit mismatch found by Sashiko AI review.
