tcp: Overflow bug in Vegas
From: Lachlan Andrew <lachlan.andrew@gmail.com> There is an overflow bug in net/ipv4/tcp_vegas.c for large BDPs (e.g. 400Mbit/s, 400ms). The multiplication (old_wnd * vegas->baseRTT) << V_PARAM_SHIFT overflows a u32. [ Fix tcp_veno.c too, it has similar calculations. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
