Hmph. But I wonder why this part does not trigger, even when you have renamelimit set to 0. /* * This basically does a test for the rename matrix not * growing larger than a "rename_limit" square matrix, ie: * * rename_dst_nr * rename_src_nr > rename_limit * rename_limit * * but handles the potential overflow case specially (and we * assume at least 32-bit integers) */ if (rename_limit <= 0 || rename_limit > 32767) rename_limit = 32767; if (rename_dst_nr > rename_limit && rename_src_nr > rename_limit) goto cleanup; if (rename_dst_nr * rename_src_nr > rename_limit * rename_limit) goto cleanup; I wonder if the second one for the overflow avoidance should be using || instead of &&, though. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
