rps: fix insufficient bounds checking in store_rps_dev_flow_table_cnt()
Setting a large rps_flow_cnt like (1 << 30) on 32-bit platform will
cause a kernel oops due to insufficient bounds checking.
if (count > 1<<30) {
/* Enforce a limit to prevent overflow */
return -EINVAL;
}
count = roundup_pow_of_two(count);
table = vmalloc(RPS_DEV_FLOW_TABLE_SIZE(count));
Note that the macro RPS_DEV_FLOW_TABLE_SIZE(count) is defined as:
... + (count * sizeof(struct rps_dev_flow))
where sizeof(struct rps_dev_flow) is 8. (1 << 30) * 8 will overflow
32 bits.
This patch replaces the magic number (1 << 30) with a symbolic bound.
