[PATCH 3.12 27/82] hwmon: (ntc_thermistor) Avoid math overflow

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

 



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

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

From: Doug Anderson <dianders@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d3d89c468ceebbcf9423d1a3d66c5bf91f569570 upstream.

The ntc thermistor code was doing math whose temporary result might
have overflowed 32-bits.  We need some casts in there to make it safe.

In one example I found:
- pullup_uV: 1800000
- result of iio_read_channel_raw: 3226
- 1800000 * 3226 => 0x15a1cbc80
