| H A D | bvec.h | diff b1fb2c52b2d85f51f36f1661409f9aeef94265ff Thu Jun 29 13:31:13 CDT 2017 Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> block: guard bvec iteration logic
Currently if some one try to advance bvec beyond it's size we simply
dump WARN_ONCE and continue to iterate beyond bvec array boundaries.
This simply means that we endup dereferencing/corrupting random memory
region.
Sane reaction would be to propagate error back to calling context
But bvec_iter_advance's calling context is not always good for error
handling. For safity reason let truncate iterator size to zero which
will break external iteration loop which prevent us from unpredictable
memory range corruption. And even it caller ignores an error, it will
corrupt it's own bvecs, not others.
This patch does:
- Return error back to caller with hope that it will react on this
- Truncate iterator size
Code was added long time ago here 4550dd6c, luckily no one hit it
in real life :)
