From d2130e82e9454304e9b91ba9da551b5989af8c27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sergey Senozhatsky Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2018 20:33:08 +0900 Subject: printk: fix integer overflow in setup_log_buf() The way we calculate logbuf free space percentage overflows signed integer: int free; free = __LOG_BUF_LEN - log_next_idx; pr_info("early log buf free: %u(%u%%)\n", free, (free * 100) / __LOG_BUF_LEN); We support LOG_BUF_LEN of up to 1<<25 bytes. Since setup_log_buf() is called during early init, logbuf is mostly empty, so __LOG_BUF_LEN - log_next_idx is close to 1<<25. Thus when we multiply it by 100, we overflow signed integer value range: 100 is 2^6 + 2^5 + 2^2. Example, booting with LOG_BUF_LEN 1<<25 and log_buf_len=2G boot param: [ 0.075317] log_buf_len: -2147483648 bytes [ 0.075319] early log buf free: 33549896(-28%) Make "free" unsigned integer and use appropriate printk() specifier.
