The problem is that rd_size argument is stored in 'int' and furthermore multiplied by 2 to get number of sectors the device should have. With rd_size == 1<<30 this overflows resulting in the device having absurdly large size which then confuses mkfs.ext4. I'll send a patch to fix this in brd driver and also add a defensive check to mkfs.ext4. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
