From: NeilBrown Subject: [PATCH 001 of 7] md: Avoid overflow in raid0 calculation with large components. Date: Mon, 21 May 2007 11:33:03 +1000 Message-ID: <1070521013303.6655@suse.de> References: <20070521111837.20906.patches@notabene> Return-path: Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Andrew Morton Cc: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Jeff Zheng , Neil Brown , stable@kernel.org List-Id: linux-raid.ids If a raid0 has a component device larger than 4TB, and is accessed on a 32bit machines, then as 'chunk' is unsigned lock, chunk << chunksize_bits can overflow (this can be as high as the size of the device in KB). chunk itself will not overflow (without triggering a BUG). So change 'chunk' to be 'sector_t, and get rid of the 'BUG' as it becomes impossible to hit.
