When k_ascii is invoked several times in a row there is a potential for signed integer overflow: UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:888:19 signed integer overflow: 10 * 1111111111 cannot be represented in type 'int' CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.6.11 #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Call Trace: <IRQ> __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:77 [inline] dump_stack+0xce/0x128 lib/dump_stack.c:118 ubsan_epilogue+0xe/0x30 lib/ubsan.c:154 handle_overflow+0xdc/0xf0 lib/ubsan.c:184 __ubsan_handle_mul_overflow+0x2a/0x40 lib/ubsan.c:205 k_ascii+0xbf/0xd0 drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:888 kbd_keycode drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:1477 [inline] kbd_event+0x888/0x3be0 drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:1495 While it can be worked around by using check_mul_overflow()/ check_add_overflow(), it is better to introduce a separate flag to signal that number pad is being used to compose a symbol, and change type of the accumulator from signed to unsigned, thus avoiding undefined behavior when it overflows.

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.
