[PATCH net] sctp: Fix undefined behavior in left shift operation
From: Yu-Chun Lin
Date: Tue Feb 18 2025 - 03:12:45 EST
According to the C11 standard (ISO/IEC 9899:2011, 6.5.7):
"If E1 has a signed type and E1 x 2^E2 is not representable in the result
type, the behavior is undefined."
Shifting 1 << 31 causes signed integer overflow, which leads to undefined
behavior.
Fix this by explicitly using '1U << 31' to ensure the shift operates on
an unsigned type, avoiding undefined behavior.
