Inserting the following kernel module:

<snip>

static int simple_test_init(void)
{
        size_t i, j;
        void *address;

        for (i = 0 * MB; i<  60 * MB; i += 1 * MB) {
                for (j = i; j<  i + 1 * MB; j += KB) {
                        address = vmalloc(j);
                        vfree(address);
                }
        }

        return 0;
}

</snip>

triggers BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:310 on a x86 machine:

A printk placed in __insert_vmap_area will show:

[   95.218256] va->va_start=0xfecfb000 tmp_va->va_end=0xf85e2000 va->va_end=0 tmp_va->va_start=0xf85dc000

and another one, before sum operation in alloc_vmap_area:

[   95.218204] addr = 0xfecfb000 size = 19943424 vend = 0xffbfe000

If after addition the result is smaller than one of the arguments,
then an overflow occurred. In our case there is an obvious overflow.

 Don't know if this is the right solution, but the bug happens for me in
 3.10-rc6 and 3.9.

Hi Zhang,

I have applied your patch and the bug seems to be fixed.

Commit 89699605fe (mm: vmap area cache) suggests to use
"addr + size  < addr" instead of "addr + size - 1 < addr" so I guess
this is the correct fix.

thanks,
Daniel.
