[PATCH 3.18 064/185] kernel/relay.c: limit kmalloc size to KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE

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

 



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

------------------

From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 88913bd8ea2a75d7e460a4bed5f75e1c32660d7e ]

chan->n_subbufs is set by the user and relay_create_buf() does a kmalloc()
of chan->n_subbufs * sizeof(size_t *).

kmalloc_slab() will generate a warning when this fails if
chan->subbufs * sizeof(size_t *) > KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE.

Limit chan->n_subbufs to the maximum allowed kmalloc() size.
