[PATCH] EDAC: Fix global-out-of-bounds write when setting edac_mc_poll_msec

From: Eiichi Tsukata
Date: Wed Jun 26 2019 - 01:40:38 EST


Commit 9da21b1509d8 ("EDAC: Poll timeout cannot be zero, p2") assumes
edac_mc_poll_msec to be unsigned long, but the type of the variable still
remained as int. Setting edac_mc_poll_msec can trigger out-of-bounds
write.

Reproducer:

# echo 1001 > /sys/module/edac_core/parameters/edac_mc_poll_msec

Fix it by changing the type of edac_mc_poll_msec to unsigned int.
The reason why this patch adopts unsigned int rather than unsigned long
is msecs_to_jiffies() assumes arg to be unsigned int. We can avoid
integer conversion bugs and unsigned int will be large enough for
edac_mc_poll_msec.
