This really should go into 4.8 (and the previous patch probably as well), and I've said that a couple of times, and you tried a few times to send it to Al at least. Al, do you want to pick it up or should Darrick send it straight to Linus? On Thu, Aug 25, 2016 at 04:30:54PM -0700, Darrick J. Wong wrote: > Kirill A.

Please resend the patch straight to Linux with a Cc to Al and me.

Kirill A. Shutemov reports that the kernel doesn't try to cap dest_count in any way, and uses the number to allocate kernel memory. This causes high order allocation warnings in the kernel log if someone passes in a big enough value. We should clamp the allocation at PAGE_SIZE to avoid stressing the VM. The two existing users of the dedupe ioctl never send more than 120 requests, so we can safely clamp dest_range at PAGE_SIZE, because with 4k pages we can handle up to 127 dedupe candidates. Given the max extent length of 16MB, we can end up doing 2GB of IO which is plenty. Reported-by: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill@shutemov.name> Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
