btrfs: fix signed overflows in btrfs_sync_file The calculation of range length in btrfs_sync_file leads to signed overflow. This was caught by PaX gcc SIZE_OVERFLOW plugin. https://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4284 The fsync call passes 0 and LLONG_MAX, the range length does not fit to loff_t and overflows, but the value is converted to u64 so it silently works as expected. The minimal fix is a typecast to u64, switching functions to take (start, end) instead of (start, len) would be more intrusive. Coccinelle script found that there's one more opencoded calculation of the length. <smpl> @@ loff_t start, end; @@ * end - start </smpl> CC: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com>
