Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] selftests/mm/write_to_hugetlbfs: parse -s as size_t
Date: Sun, 21 Dec 2025 16:58:08 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251221085810.3163919-2-liwang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251221085810.3163919-1-liwang@redhat.com>

write_to_hugetlbfs currently parses the -s size argument with atoi()
into an int. This silently accepts malformed input, cannot report overflow,
and can truncate large sizes.

--- Error log ---
 # uname -r
 6.12.0-xxx.el10.aarch64+64k

 # ls /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-*
 hugepages-16777216kB/  hugepages-2048kB/  hugepages-524288kB/

 #./charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh -cgroup-v2
 # -----------------------------------------
 ...
 # nr hugepages = 10
 # writing cgroup limit: 5368709120
 # writing reseravation limit: 5368709120
 ...
 # Writing to this path: /mnt/huge/test
 # Writing this size: -1610612736        <--------

Switch the size variable to size_t and parse -s with sscanf("%zu", ...).
Also print the size using %zu.

This avoids incorrect behavior with large -s values and makes the utility
more robust.
