Linux kernel source tree
d2099d9f16
The rate limiting validation condition currently checks the output
variable max_bw_value[i] instead of the input value
maxrate->tc_maxrate[i]. This causes the validation to compare an
uninitialized or stale value rather than the actual requested rate.
The condition should check the input rate to properly validate against
the upper limit:
} else if (maxrate->tc_maxrate[i] <= upper_limit_gbps) {
This aligns with the pattern used in the first branch, which correctly
checks maxrate->tc_maxrate[i] against upper_limit_mbps.
The current implementation can lead to unreliable validation behavior:
- For rates between 25.5 Gbps and 255 Gbps, if max_bw_value[i] is 0
from initialization, the GBPS path may be taken regardless of whether
the actual rate is within bounds
- When processing multiple TCs (i > 0), max_bw_value[i] contains the
value computed for the previous TC, affecting the validation logic
- The overflow check for rates exceeding 255 Gbps may not trigger
consistently depending on previous array values
This patch ensures the validation correctly examines the requested rate
value for proper bounds checking.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
