From 2cda2728aa1c8c006418a24f867b25e5eb7a32e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Martin K. Petersen" Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2010 12:46:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] block: Fix overrun in lcm() and move it to lib lcm() was defined to take integer-sized arguments. The supplied arguments are multiplied, however, causing us to overflow given sufficiently large input. That in turn led to incorrect optimal I/O size reporting in some cases (RAID over RAID). Switch lcm() over to unsigned long similar to gcd() and move the function from blk-settings.c to lib. Signed-off-by: Martin K.
