Subject: [PATCH -next] loop: fix loop_validate_block_size() can't make sense
Date: Thu, 12 Aug 2021 16:34:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210812083453.761319-1-qiulaibin@huawei.com> (raw)

We config the block size of a loop device throuth
the following process:

lo_ioctl(..., unsigned long arg)
|                      ^^^^
lo_simple_ioctl(..., unsigned long arg)
|                             ^^^^
loop_set_block_size(..., unsigned long arg)
        |                         ^^^^
        loop_validate_block_size(unsigned short bsize)
        |                                 ^^^^^
        blk_queue_logical_block_size(..., unsigned int size) {
                '''
                limits->logical_block_size = size;
                        ^^^^ int
                '''
        }

loop_validate_block_size() will check the validity of bsize.
But long to short will be truncated(eg arg=1049600 and
it becomes 1024 after truncation by short. The block size
must within the range of 512 ~ PAGE_SZIE, This truncation will
turn illegal block szie to legal). The wrong of block size will
raise other errors.
