Subject: [PATCH] block: Use size_add() and array_size() for safe memory allocation
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 21:07:04 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251125130704.5953-1-fushuai.wang@linux.dev> (raw)
Dynamic size calculations should not be performed in memory
allocator due to the risk of overflowing. So use size_add()
and array_size(), which have overflow checks, in bio_kmalloc()
for safe size calculation.
