Subject: [PATCH v2] sched/uclamp: reject negative values in cpu_uclamp_write
Date:   Tue, 14 Jan 2020 21:09:47 +0000
Message-Id: <20200114210947.14083-1-qais.yousef@arm.com>
In-Reply-To: <20200112235217.26647-1-qais.yousef@arm.com>
References: <20200112235217.26647-1-qais.yousef@arm.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The check to ensure that the new written value into cpu.uclamp.{min,max}
is within range, [0:100], wasn't working because of the signed
comparison

7301                 if (req.percent > UCLAMP_PERCENT_SCALE) {
7302                         req.ret = -ERANGE;
7303                         return req;
7304                 }

	# echo -1 > cpu.uclamp.min
	# cat cpu.uclamp.min
	42949671.96

Cast req.percent into u64 to force the comparison to be unsigned and
work as intended in capacity_from_percent().

	# echo -1 > cpu.uclamp.min
	sh: write error: Numerical result out of range
