Re: [libvirt] [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/3] adlib: mark as insecure and deprecated.

We have a lovely, guest-triggerable buffer overflow in opl2 emulation. Reproducer: outw(0xff60, 0x220); outw(0x1020, 0x220); outw(0xffb0, 0x220); Result: Will overflow FM_OPL->AR_TABLE[] (see hw/audio/fmopl.[ch]) The specs google finds (http://www.symphoniae.com/Yamaha/YSC/YM3812.pdf) are rather sparse, possibly incomplete (looks like scanned fax with a scrambled page at the end) and not really helpful in identifying which of the register writes sets some illegal value. So, go tag the device as deprecated with a warning messge, to notify

users and schedule it for removal according to our deprecation policy.
