With a machine with 3 TB (more than 2 TB memory). If you use vmalloc to allocate > 2 TB memory, the array_size below will be overflowed. The array_size is an unsigned int and can only be used to allocate less than 2 TB memory. If you pass 2*1028*1028*1024*1024 = 2 * 2^40 in the argument of vmalloc. The array_size will become 2*2^31 = 2^32. The 2^32 cannot be store with a 32 bit integer. The fix is to change the type of array_size to unsigned long.

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.
