Linux kernel source tree
fc3d092c6b
The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector
address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB.
Use sector_t as type for sector address and size to allow using disks
up to 2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD.
This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by
the RDB author, Joanne Dow <jdow@earthlink.net>. A patch had been
discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially
submitted. This patch differs from Joanne's patch only in its use of
sector_t instead of unsigned int. No checking for overflows is done
(see patch 3 of this series for that).

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 Restructured Text 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.
