If override size is too big, the module was actually loaded instead of failing, because retval was not set. This lead to memory corruption with the use of the freed structs nandsim and nand_chip.

commit bb0a13a13411c4ce24c48c8ff3cdf7b48d237240 upstream.

If override size is too big, the module was actually loaded instead of
failing, because retval was not set.

This lead to memory corruption with the use of the freed structs nandsim
and nand_chip.

mtd: nandsim: don't open code a do_div helper 2012-07-19T15:58:20+00:00 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski herton.krzesinski@canonical.com 2012-05-16T19:21:52+00:00 29224d0b695c89e4f4cfc5f1cb3ef3d697c60dc8 commit 596fd46268634082314b3af1ded4612e1b7f3f03 upstream. We don't need to open code the divide function, just use div_u64 that already exists and do the same job. While this is a straightforward clean up, there is more to that, the real motivation for this. While building on a cross compiling environment in armel, using gcc 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5), I was getting the following build error: ERROR: "__aeabi_uldivmod" [drivers/mtd/nand/nandsim.ko] undefined! After investigating with objdump and hand built assembly version generated with the compiler, I narrowed __aeabi_uldivmod as being generated from the divide function. When nandsim.c is built with -fno-inline-functions-called-once, that happens when CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH is enabled, the do_div optimization in arch/arm/include/asm/div64.h doesn't work as expected with the open coded divide function: even if the do_div we are using doesn't have a constant divisor, the compiler still includes the else parts of the optimized do_div macro, and translates the divisions there to use __aeabi_uldivmod, instead of only calling __do_div_asm -> __do_div64 and optimizing/removing everything else out. So to reproduce, gcc 4.6 plus CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y and CONFIG_MTD_NAND_NANDSIM=m should do it, building on armel. After this change, the compiler does the intended thing even with -fno-inline-functions-called-once, and optimizes out as expected the constant handling in the optimized do_div on arm. As this also avoids a build issue, I'm marking for Stable, as I think is applicable for this case.

commit 596fd46268634082314b3af1ded4612e1b7f3f03 upstream.

We don't need to open code the divide function, just use div_u64 that
already exists and do the same job. While this is a straightforward
clean up, there is more to that, the real motivation for this.

While building on a cross compiling environment in armel, using gcc
4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5), I was getting the following build
error:

ERROR: "__aeabi_uldivmod" [drivers/mtd/nand/nandsim.ko] undefined!

After investigating with objdump and hand built assembly version
generated with the compiler, I narrowed __aeabi_uldivmod as being
generated from the divide function. When nandsim.c is built with
-fno-inline-functions-called-once, that happens when
CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH is enabled, the do_div optimization in
arch/arm/include/asm/div64.h doesn't work as expected with the open
coded divide function: even if the do_div we are using doesn't have a
constant divisor, the compiler still includes the else parts of the
optimized do_div macro, and translates the divisions there to use
__aeabi_uldivmod, instead of only calling __do_div_asm -> __do_div64 and
optimizing/removing everything else out.

So to reproduce, gcc 4.6 plus CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y and
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_NANDSIM=m should do it, building on armel.

After this change, the compiler does the intended thing even with
-fno-inline-functions-called-once, and optimizes out as expected the
constant handling in the optimized do_div on arm. As this also avoids a
