hwmon: (ltc4282) Avoid overflow in maximum power calculation
During device initialization in ltc4282_set_max_limits(), the calculation
of the maximum power limit can suffer from a 32-bit integer overflow.
static int ltc4282_set_max_limits(struct ltc4282_state *st)
{
...
st->power_max = DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(st->vsense_max * DECA * MILLI,
st->rsense) * st->vfs_out;
...
}
The result of DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST() evaluates to a 32-bit unsigned integer
on 32-bit architectures. This result is then multiplied by st->vfs_out,
which is a 16-bit unsigned integer. According to C promotion rules, since
both operands are 32-bit or smaller, the multiplication is performed in
32-bit precision.
If the device is configured with a low sense resistor value via the device
tree (for example, 100 nano-ohms, resulting in st->rsense = 1) and the
voltage is high, the division result can reach 343,750,000 and st->vfs_out
can be 33,280. The product of these values is approximately 11.44 trillion,
which exceeds the maximum capacity of a 32-bit integer and overflows
before being stored in st->power_max.
This overflow causes a truncated value to be assigned to st->power_max and
written to the hardware limit register. An incorrect maximum power limit
can trigger spurious power-bad faults or alarms, which may lead to the
shutdown of the monitored power rail.
Avoid the problem by calculating and storing the maximum power using 64-bit
variables.
