Subject: pipe: avoid round_pipe_size() nr_pages overflow on 32-bit
From: Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit d3f14c485867cfb2e0c48aa88c41d0ef4bf5209c upstream.
round_pipe_size() contains a right-bit-shift expression which may
overflow, which would cause undefined results in a subsequent
roundup_pow_of_two() call.
static inline unsigned int round_pipe_size(unsigned int size)
{
unsigned long nr_pages;
nr_pages = (size + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
return roundup_pow_of_two(nr_pages) << PAGE_SHIFT;
}
PAGE_SIZE is defined as (1UL << PAGE_SHIFT), so:
- 4 bytes wide on 32-bit (0 to 0xffffffff)
- 8 bytes wide on 64-bit (0 to 0xffffffffffffffff)
That means that 32-bit round_pipe_size(), nr_pages may overflow to 0:
size=0x00000000 nr_pages=0x0
size=0x00000001 nr_pages=0x1
size=0xfffff000 nr_pages=0xfffff
size=0xfffff001 nr_pages=0x0 << !
size=0xffffffff nr_pages=0x0 << !
This is bad because roundup_pow_of_two(n) is undefined when n == 0!
64-bit is not a problem as the unsigned int size is 4 bytes wide
(similar to 32-bit) and the larger, 8 byte wide unsigned long, is
sufficient to handle the largest value of the bit shift expression:
size=0xffffffff nr_pages=100000
Modify round_pipe_size() to return 0 if n == 0 and updates its callers to
handle accordingly.
