[RESEND][PATCH 2/7] alpha: Avoid overflow at boundary_size

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

 



The boundary_size might be as large as ULONG_MAX, which means
that a device has no specific boundary limit. So "+ 1" would
potentially overflow.

Also, by following other places in the kernel, boundary_size
should align with the PAGE_SIZE before right shifting by the
PAGE_SHIFT. However, passing it to ALIGN() would potentially
overflow too.

According to kernel defines:
    #define ALIGN_MASK(x, mask) (((x) + (mask)) & ~(mask))
    #define ALIGN(x, a)	ALIGN_MASK(x, (typeof(x))(a) - 1)

We can simplify the logic here:
  ALIGN(boundary + 1, 1 << shift) >> shift
= ALIGN_MASK(b + 1, (1 << s) - 1) >> s
= {[b + 1 + (1 << s) - 1] & ~[(1 << s) - 1]} >> s
= [b + 1 + (1 << s) - 1] >> s
= [b + (1 << s)] >> s
= (b >> s) + 1

So fixing a potential overflow with the safer shortcut.
