commit 95a55437dc49fb3342c82e61f5472a71c63d9ed0 upstream. The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB. Use u64 as type for sector address and size to allow using disks up to 2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD. The RBD format allows to specify disk sizes up to 2^128 bytes (though native OS limitations reduce this somewhat, to max 2^68 bytes), so check for u64 overflow carefully to protect against overflowing sector_t. This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by the RDB author, Joanne Dow <jdow@earthlink.net>. A patch had been discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially submitted (now resubmitted as patch 1 of this series). Patch 3 (this series) adds additional error checking and warning messages. One of the error checks now makes use of the previously unused rdb_CylBlocks field, which causes a 'sparse' warning (cast to restricted __be32). Annotate all 32 bit fields in affs_hardblocks.h as __be32, as the on-disk format of RDB and partition blocks is always big endian.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
