Subject: [PATCH] uaccess: Disallow > INT_MAX copy sizes
Date: Sun, 25 Aug 2019 16:18:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201908251612.F9902D7A@keescook> (raw)

As we've done with VFS, string operations, etc, reject usercopy sizes
larger than INT_MAX, which would be nice to have for catching bugs
related to size calculation overflows[1].

This adds 10 bytes to x86_64 defconfig text and 1980 bytes to the data
section:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
19691167        5134320 1646664 26472151        193eed7 vmlinux.before
19691177        5136300 1646664 26474141        193f69d vmlinux.after
