From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> stable inclusion from stable-5.10.70 commit 3d42ed6b790555c02483545865696d7443eca9b7 bugzilla: 182949 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4I3GQ Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit e946d3c887a9dc33aa82a349c6284f4a084163f4 ] The problem is the mismatched types between "ctx->total_len" which is an unsigned int, "rc" which is an int, and "ctx->rc" which is a ssize_t. The code does: ctx->rc = (rc == 0) ? ctx->total_len : rc; We want "ctx->rc" to store the negative "rc" error code. But what happens is that "rc" is type promoted to a high unsigned int and 'ctx->rc" will store the high positive value instead of a negative value. The fix is to change "rc" from an int to a ssize_t.
