[ Upstream commit 6ed6356b07714e0198be3bc3ecccc8b40a212de4 ] The "bufsize" comes from the root user. If "bufsize" is negative then, because of type promotion, neither of the validation checks at the start of the function are able to catch it: if (bufsize < sizeof(struct xfs_attrlist) || bufsize > XFS_XATTR_LIST_MAX) return -EINVAL; This means "bufsize" will trigger (WARN_ON_ONCE(size > INT_MAX)) in kvmalloc_node(). Fix this by changing the type from int to size_t. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

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.
