[PATCH] select: Avoid wrap-around instrumentation in do_sys_poll()

From: Kees Cook
Date: Mon Jan 29 2024 - 13:48:17 EST


The mix of int, unsigned int, and unsigned long used by struct
poll_list::len, todo, len, and j meant that the signed overflow
sanitizer got worried it needed to instrument several places where
arithmetic happens between these variables. Since all of the variables
are always positive and bounded by unsigned int, use a single type in
all places. Additionally expand the zero-test into an explicit range
check before updating "todo".

This keeps sanitizer instrumentation[1] out of a UACCESS path:

vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_sys_poll+0x285: call to __ubsan_handle_sub_overflow() with UACCESS enabled
