[ Upstream commit 29d650f7e3ab55283b89c9f5883d0c256ce478b5 ] Syzbot tripped over the following complaint from the kernel: WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 15402 at mm/util.c:597 kvmalloc_node+0x11e/0x125 mm/util.c:597 While trying to run XFS_IOC_GETBMAP against the following structure: struct getbmap fubar = { .bmv_count = 0x22dae649, }; Obviously, this is a crazy huge value since the next thing that the ioctl would do is allocate 37GB of memory. This is enough to make kvmalloc mad, but isn't large enough to trip the validation functions. In other words, I'm fussing with checks that were **already sufficient** because that's easier than dealing with 644 internal bug reports. Yes, that's right, six hundred and forty-four.

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.
