Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y 5.15.y] printk: Fix signed integer overflow when defining LOG_BUF_LEN_MAX
Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2025 15:23:07 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250313152307.14830-1-kareemem@amazon.com> (raw)

From: Kuan-Wei Chiu <visitorckw@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 3d6f83df8ff2d5de84b50377e4f0d45e25311c7a ]

Shifting 1 << 31 on a 32-bit int causes signed integer overflow, which
leads to undefined behavior. To prevent this, cast 1 to u32 before
performing the shift, ensuring well-defined behavior.

This change explicitly avoids any potential overflow by ensuring that
the shift occurs on an unsigned 32-bit integer.
