[064/105] mm: avoid wrapping vm_pgoff in mremap()

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Apr 12 2011 - 10:38:37 EST


2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 982134ba62618c2d69fbbbd166d0a11ee3b7e3d8 upstream.

The normal mmap paths all avoid creating a mapping where the pgoff
inside the mapping could wrap around due to overflow. However, an
expanding mremap() can take such a non-wrapping mapping and make it
bigger and cause a wrapping condition.

Noticed by Robert Swiecki when running a system call fuzzer, where it
caused a BUG_ON() due to terminally confusing the vma_prio_tree code. A
vma dumping patch by Hugh then pinpointed the crazy wrapped case.
