The loop counter "i" in copy_compat_iovec_from_user() is an int, but because the nr_segs argument is unsigned long, the signed overflow sanitizer got worried "i" could wrap around. Instead of making "i" an unsigned long (which may enlarge the type size), switch both nr_segs and i to u32. There is no truncation with nr_segs since it is never larger than UIO_MAXIOV anyway. This keeps sanitizer instrumentation[1] out of a UACCESS path: vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: copy_compat_iovec_from_user+0xa9: call to __ubsan_handle_add_overflow() with UACCESS enabled Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/26 [1] Cc: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240129183729.work.991-kees@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
