Use vmalloc_array and vcalloc to protect against multiplication overflows. The changes were done using the following Coccinelle semantic patch: // <smpl> @initialize:ocaml@ @@ let rename alloc = match alloc with "vmalloc" -> "vmalloc_array" | "vzalloc" -> "vcalloc" | _ -> failwith "unknown" @@ size_t e1,e2; constant C1, C2; expression E1, E2, COUNT, x1, x2, x3; typedef u8; typedef __u8; type t = {u8,__u8,char,unsigned char}; identifier alloc = {vmalloc,vzalloc}; fresh identifier realloc = script:ocaml(alloc) { rename alloc }; @@ ( alloc(x1*x2*x3) | alloc(C1 * C2) | alloc((sizeof(t)) * (COUNT), ...) | - alloc((e1) * (e2)) + realloc(e1, e2) | - alloc((e1) * (COUNT)) + realloc(COUNT, e1) | - alloc((E1) * (E2)) + realloc(E1, E2) ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxxx> --- v2: Use vmalloc_array and vcalloc instead of array_size. This also leaves a multiplication of a constant by a sizeof as is. Two patches are thus dropped from the series. drivers/gpu/drm/gud/gud_pipe.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff -u -p a/drivers/gpu/drm/gud/gud_pipe.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/gud/gud_pipe.c --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/gud/gud_pipe.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/gud/gud_pipe.c @@ -390,7 +390,7 @@ static int gud_fb_queue_damage(struct gu mutex_lock(&gdrm->damage_lock); if (!gdrm->shadow_buf) { - gdrm->shadow_buf = vzalloc(fb->pitches[0] * fb->height); + gdrm->shadow_buf = vcalloc(fb->pitches[0], fb->height); if (!gdrm->shadow_buf) { mutex_unlock(&gdrm->damage_lock); return -ENOMEM;
