[PATCH] bpf: hashtab: fix 32-bit overflow in memory usage calculation
From: Alexei Safin
Date: Thu Nov 06 2025 - 15:59:40 EST
The intermediate product value_size * num_possible_cpus() is evaluated
in 32-bit arithmetic and only then promoted to 64 bits. On systems with
large value_size and many possible CPUs this can overflow and lead to
an underestimated memory usage.
Cast value_size to u64 before multiplying.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
