The npgs member of struct xdp_umem is an u32 entity, and stores the
number of pages the UMEM consumes. The calculation of npgs
npgs = size / PAGE_SIZE
can overflow.
To avoid overflow scenarios, the division is now first stored in a
u64, and the result is verified to fit into 32b.
An alternative would be storing the npgs as a u64, however, this
wastes memory and is an unrealisticly large packet area.

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.
