ipc: msg, make msgrcv work with LONG_MIN
commit 999898355e08ae3b92dfd0a08db706e0c6703d30 upstream. When LONG_MIN is passed to msgrcv, one would expect to recieve any message. But convert_mode does *msgtyp = -*msgtyp and -LONG_MIN is undefined. In particular, with my gcc -LONG_MIN produces -LONG_MIN again. So handle this case properly by assigning LONG_MAX to *msgtyp if LONG_MIN was specified as msgtyp to msgrcv. This code: long msg[] = { 100, 200 }; int m = msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT | 0644); msgsnd(m, &msg, sizeof(msg), 0); msgrcv(m, &msg, sizeof(msg), LONG_MIN, 0); produces currently nothing: msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT|0644) = 65538 msgsnd(65538, {100, "\310\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16, 0) = 0 msgrcv(65538, ... Except a UBSAN warning: UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in ipc/msg.c:745:13 negation of -9223372036854775808 cannot be represented in type 'long int': With the patch, I see what I expect: msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT|0644) = 0 msgsnd(0, {100, "\310\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16, 0) = 0 msgrcv(0, {100, "\310\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16, -9223372036854775808, 0) = 16 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161024082633.10148-1-jslaby@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
