Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2008 23:05:09 +0800 From: Wang Chen <wangchen@...fujitsu.com> To: "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> CC: NETDEV <netdev@...r.kernel.org>, Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net> Subject: v2: [PATCH 2/3] netdevice: Fix promiscuity and allmulti overflow Max of promiscuity and allmulti plus positive @inc can cause overflow. Fox example: when allmulti=0xFFFFFFFF, any caller give dev_set_allmulti() a positive @inc will cause allmulti be off. This is not what we want, though it's rare case. The fix is that only negative @inc will cause allmulti or promiscuity be off and when any caller makes the counters touch the roof, we return error. Change of v2: Change void function dev_set_promiscuity/allmulti to return int. So callers can get the overflow error. Caller's fix will be done later.
