[PATCH 3.16 276/410] kernel/relay.c: limit kmalloc size to KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Jun 07 2018 - 10:52:37 EST


3.16.57-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 88913bd8ea2a75d7e460a4bed5f75e1c32660d7e upstream.

chan->n_subbufs is set by the user and relay_create_buf() does a kmalloc()
of chan->n_subbufs * sizeof(size_t *).

kmalloc_slab() will generate a warning when this fails if
chan->subbufs * sizeof(size_t *) > KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE.

Limit chan->n_subbufs to the maximum allowed kmalloc() size.
