    EDAC: Fix global-out-of-bounds write when setting edac_mc_poll_msec · d8655e76
    Eiichi Tsukata authored
    Commit 9da21b15 ("EDAC: Poll timeout cannot be zero, p2") assumes
    edac_mc_poll_msec to be unsigned long, but the type of the variable still
    remained as int. Setting edac_mc_poll_msec can trigger out-of-bounds
    write.
    
    Reproducer:
    
      # echo 1001 > /sys/module/edac_core/parameters/edac_mc_poll_msec

      The buggy address belongs to the variable:
       edac_mc_poll_msec+0x0/0x40
    
      Memory state around the buggy address:
       ffffffffb91b2c00: 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa
       ffffffffb91b2c80: 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa
      >ffffffffb91b2d00: 04 fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 04 fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
                         ^
       ffffffffb91b2d80: 04 fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
       ffffffffb91b2e00: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
    
    Fix it by changing the type of edac_mc_poll_msec to unsigned int.
    The reason why this patch adopts unsigned int rather than unsigned long
    is msecs_to_jiffies() assumes arg to be unsigned int. We can avoid
    integer conversion bugs and unsigned int will be large enough for
    edac_mc_poll_msec.
