This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled apparmor: fix unsigned len comparison with less than zero to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: apparmor-fix-unsigned-len-comparison-with-less-than-.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 728c075cb0dc074272b31f5b525a2036bd265a7d Author: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jun 27 14:09:04 2019 +0100 apparmor: fix unsigned len comparison with less than zero [ Upstream commit 00e0590dbaec6f1bcaa36a85467d7e3497ced522 ] The sanity check in macro update_for_len checks to see if len is less than zero, however, len is a size_t so it can never be less than zero, so this sanity check is a no-op. Fix this by making len a ssize_t so the comparison will work and add ulen that is a size_t copy of len so that the min() macro won't throw warnings about comparing different types.
