From: Hugh Dickins Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2010 21:42:12 +0000 (-0800) Subject: mm/swapfile.c: fix swapon size off-by-one X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ad2bd7e0e9647cd48593a6b3a2be07dc2c2d28ed;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git mm/swapfile.c: fix swapon size off-by-one There's an off-by-one disagreement between mkswap and swapon about the meaning of swap_header last_page: mkswap (in all versions I've looked at: util-linux-ng and BusyBox and old util-linux; probably as far back as 1999) consistently means the offset (in page units) of the last page of the swap area, whereas kernel sys_swapon (as far back as 2.2 and 2.3) strangely takes it to mean the size (in page units) of the swap area. This disagreement is the safe way round; but it's worrying people, and loses us one page of swap. The fix is not just to add one to nr_good_pages: we need to get maxpages (the size of the swap_map array) right before that; and though that is an unsigned long, be careful not to overflow the unsigned int p->max which later holds it (probably why header uses __u32 last_page instead of size). Why did we subtract one from the maximum swp_offset to calculate maxpages? Though it was probably me who made that change in 2.4.10, I don't get it: and now we should be adding one (without risk of overflow in this case). Fix the handling of swap_header badpages: it could have overrun the swap_map when very large swap area used on a more limited architecture. Remove pre-initializations of swap_header, nr_good_pages and maxpages: those date from when sys_swapon was supporting other versions of header.
