[PATCH 3.12 27/33] bio: fix argument of __bio_add_page() for max_sectors > 0xffff

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

 



From: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 34f2fd8dfe6185b0eaaf7d661281713a6170b077 upstream.

The data type of max_sectors and max_hw_sectors in queue settings are
unsigned int.  But these values are passed to __bio_add_page() as an
argument whose data type is unsigned short.  In the worst case such as
max_sectors is 0x10000, bio_add_page() can't add a page and IOs can't
proceed.
