[PATCH v3] ext4: fix possible overflow in ext4_trim_fs()

From: Lukas Czerner <hidden>
Date: 2011-09-07 16:32:36

The overflow can happen when we are calling get_group_no_and_offset()
which stores the result of do_div() in 32 bit long type. However the
result might be bigger than that if big blocknr is passed in. This will
most likely happen when calling FITRIM with the default argument len =
ULLONG_MAX.

Fix this by using "end" variable instead of "start+len" as it is easier
to get right and specifically check that the end is not beyond the end
of the file system, so we are sure that the result of
get_group_no_and_offset() will not overflow. Otherwise truncate it to
the size of the file system.

Any comments on this ? Note that the test case will be in xfstests soon.

Hi Lukas,

Since I've merged the bigalloc patches that uses clusters instead of
blocks for various file system parameters.  I made a quick attempt to
port your patch, and it wasn't obvious (and I don't have your testing
framework).  Could you do me a favor and forward port your patch to
either the dev or master branch on the ext4 github repository?

Thanks!!

Hi Ted,

no problem, I'll do that. Btw, the test case for it is already in
xfstests (260) so I'll mention that in the commit description as well.

Thanks!
