[PATCH 3.12 008/111] btrfs: fix defrag 32-bit integer overflow

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Mon Jun 23 2014 - 04:49:32 EST


From: Justin Maggard <jmaggard10@xxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit c41570c9d29764f797fa35490d72b7395a0105c3 upstream.

When defragging a very large file, the cluster variable can wrap its 32-bit
signed int type and become negative, which eventually gets passed to
btrfs_force_ra() as a very large unsigned long value. On 32-bit platforms,
this eventually results in an Oops from the SLAB allocator.

Change the cluster and max_cluster signed int variables to unsigned long to
match the readahead functions. This also allows the min() comparison in
btrfs_defrag_file() to work as intended.
