Subject: [patch] udf: potential integer overflow
Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2010 08:21:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100315082113.GC18181@bicker> (raw)

bloc->logicalBlockNum is unsigned so it's never less than zero.

When I saw that, it made me worry that "bloc->logicalBlockNum + count"
could overflow.  That's why I changed the check for less than zero
to an overflow check.  (The test works because "count" is also 
unsigned.)

GCC 4.1 apparently optimizes overflow checks like this away, but it should
work for other versions of gcc.  I tested with GCC 4.3.
