[PATCH 5.16 174/227] ucounts: Handle wrapping in is_ucounts_overlimit

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

 



From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0cbae9e24fa7d6c6e9f828562f084da82217a0c5 upstream.

While examining is_ucounts_overlimit and reading the various messages
I realized that is_ucounts_overlimit fails to deal with counts that
may have wrapped.

Being wrapped should be a transitory state for counts and they should
never be wrapped for long, but it can happen so handle it.
