Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] iio: light: isl29018: fix 32-bit overflow in isl29018_read_lux()
Date: Thu,  4 Jun 2026 08:49:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260604064925.3097108-2-github.com@herrie.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260604064925.3097108-1-github.com@herrie.org>

The intermediate calculations in isl29018_read_lux() use 32-bit
arithmetic throughout, which overflows in two distinct ways:

1. lux_data * chip->scale.uscale — at 16-bit integration time and the
   1000 fc range, scale.uscale is 976562.  A full-scale 16-bit reading
   (65535) gives 65535 * 976562 ≈ 64 billion, far beyond UINT_MAX.
   The value wraps before the / 1000000 division can save it, producing
   a wildly wrong data_x_range.

2. data_x_range * chip->calibscale — even after a correct data_x_range,
   multiplying by a calibscale of a few hundred (reasonable for a deeply
   tinted cover glass) pushes the product past INT_MAX, causing *lux to
   wrap negative.

Fix both by widening the intermediate variables to u64 and clamping the
final result to INT_MAX before storing it in the signed int *lux out
parameter.
