The actual calculation formula in the code below is:

max_size = (count - (size + PAGES_FOR_IO)) / 2
- 2 * DIV_ROUND_UP(reserved_size, PAGE_SIZE);

But function comments are written differently, the comment is wrong?

It is, and it is more serious than just a spelling mistake.

By the way, what exactly do the "/ 2" and "2 *" mean?

Every page in the image is a copy of an existing allocated page, so
room needs to be made for the two, except for the "IO pages" and
metadata pages that are not copied. Hence, the division by 2.

Now, the "reserved_size" pages will be allocated right before creating
the image and there will be a copy of each of them in the image, so
there needs to be room for twice as many.

According to your interpretation, the formula should be:
max_size = (count - 2 * DIV_ROUND_UP(reserved_size, PAGE_SIZE)
- (size + PAGES_FOR_IO)) / 2

Am I right?


I'll adjust the changelog and queue up the path for 6.2.

Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I'll add a Fixes tag instead.
