If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 2d8ce70a08fe033c904115d59276ad86adeaa337 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Goffredo Baroncelli <kreijack@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 3 Oct 2017 19:31:10 +0200 Subject: btrfs: avoid overflow when sector_t is 32 bit From: Goffredo Baroncelli <kreijack@xxxxxxxxx> commit 2d8ce70a08fe033c904115d59276ad86adeaa337 upstream. Jean-Denis Girard noticed commit c821e7f3 "pass bytes to btrfs_bio_alloc" (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9763081/) introduces a regression on 32 bit machines. When CONFIG_LBDAF is _not_ defined (CONFIG_LBDAF == Support for large (2TB+) block devices and files) sector_t is 32 bit on 32bit machines. In the function submit_extent_page, 'sector' (which is sector_t type) is multiplied by 512 to convert it from sectors to bytes, leading to an overflow when the disk is bigger than 4GB (!). I added a cast to u64 to avoid overflow.
