Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_re: avoid shift undefined behavior in bnxt_qplib_alloc_init_hwq
Undefined behavior is triggered when bnxt_qplib_alloc_init_hwq is called
with hwq_attr->aux_depth != 0 and hwq_attr->aux_stride == 0.
In that case, “roundup_pow_of_two(hwq_attr->aux_stride)” gets called.
roundup_pow_of_two is documented as undefined for 0.
Fix it in the one caller that had this combination.
The undefined behavior was detected by UBSAN:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in ./include/linux/log2.h:57:13
shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type ‘long unsigned int’
CPU: 24 PID: 1075 Comm: (udev-worker) Not tainted 6.9.0-rc6+ #4
Hardware name: Abacus electric, s.r.o. – servis@abacus.cz Super Server/H12SSW-iN, BIOS 2.7 10/25/2023
