PATCH 1/1 bcache: fix BUG_ON due to integer overflow with GC_SECTORS_USED

The BUG_ON at the end of __bch_btree_mark_key can be triggered due to an integer overflow error:

BITMASK(GC_SECTORS_USED, struct bucket, gc_mark, 2, 13);
...
SET_GC_SECTORS_USED(g, min_t(unsigned,

	     GC_SECTORS_USED(g) + KEY_SIZE(k),
	     (1 << 14) - 1));

BUG_ON(!GC_SECTORS_USED(g));

In bcache.h, the SECTORS_USED bitfield is defined to be 13 bits wide. While the SET_ code tries to ensure that the field doesn't overflow by clamping it to (1<<14)-1 == 16383, this is incorrect because 16383 requires 14 bits. Therefore, if GC_SECTORS_USED() + KEY_SIZE() = 8192, the SET_ statement tries to store 8192 into a 13-bit field. In a 13-bit field, 8192 becomes zero, thus triggering the BUG_ON.

Therefore, create a field width constant and a max value constant, and use those to create the bitfield and check the inputs to SET_GC_SECTORS_USED. Arguably the BITMASK() template ought to have BUG_ON checks for too-large values, but that's a separate patch.

Greg, stable team et. all - can you apply this asap to 3.13? It hasn't hit Linus's tree yet (it's on its way via Jens), but multiple users are hitting this BUG_ON() and the fix has been tested.

Think about what you just wrote.

Then go read Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt.

You should know better...

I figured if any patch qualified for skipping ahead this one would - and it always takes awhile for stuff to make it through Jens, but ah well.

It's 947174476701fbc84ea8c7ec9664270f9d80b076, currently in Jens' for-linus tree, I'll ping you again when I see it go in since I forgot to add the stable tag to the patch.

You might want to fix the From: header as well... ;)
