staging: unisys: visorbus: address theoretical int overflows
Add necessary casting to several places where we were doing 32-bit
arithmetic (unsigned) to produce a 64-bit (unsigned long) result, to
prevent the theoretical possibility of a 32-bit overflow during the
arithmetic.
FYI, these are unsigned long:
ctx->param_bytes
ctx->allocbytes
These are unsigned int:
bytes
phdr->name_offset
phdr->name_length
Here is the test program demonstrating why we really need the casts:
void main()
{
unsigned int i;
unsigned long il;
printf("sizeof(int) =%dn",sizeof(i));
printf("sizeof(long)=%dn",sizeof(il));
i = (unsigned int)((((unsigned long)(1)) << 32) - 1);
printf("i = %un", i);
il = i+1;
printf("adding 1 withOUT cast = %lun", il);
il = (unsigned long)i+1;
printf("adding 1 WITH cast = %lun", il);
}
[selltc@mac tmp]$ gcc x.c -o x.out
[selltc@mac tmp]$ ./x.out
sizeof(int) =4
sizeof(long)=8
i = 4294967295
adding 1 withOUT cast = 0
adding 1 WITH cast = 4294967296
