We check whether the multiplies will overflow prior to calling kmalloc_array so that we can respond with -EINVAL for the invalid user arguments rather than treating it as an -ENOMEM that would otherwise occur. However, as Dan Carpenter pointed out, we did an addition on the unsigned int prior to passing to kmalloc_array where it would be promoted to size_t for the calculation, thereby allowing it to overflow and underallocate. v2: buffer_count is currently limited to INT_MAX because we treat it as signaled variable for LUT_HANDLE in eb_lookup_vma v3: Move common checks for eb1/eb2 into the same function v4: Put the check back for nfence*sizeof(user_fence) overflow v5: access_ok uses ULONG_MAX but kvmalloc_array uses SIZE_MAX v6: size_t and unsigned long are not type-equivalent on 32b Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20171116105059.25142-1-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk Reviewed-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
