[PATCH 02/11] bcache: fix input overflow to sequential_cutoff

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



People may set sequential_cutoff of a cached device via sysfs file,
but current code does not check input value overflow. E.g. if value
4294967295 (UINT_MAX) is written to file sequential_cutoff, its value
is 4GB, but if 4294967296 (UINT_MAX + 1) is written into, its value
will be 0. This is an unexpected behavior.

This patch replaces d_strtoi_h() by sysfs_strtoul_clamp() to convert
input string to unsigned integer value, and limit its range in
[0, UINT_MAX]. Then the input overflow can be fixed.
