# DF-0147 — Signed/unsigned accounting: int64_t delta added to uint64_t ac_bytes can wrap

**Verdict:** REPRODUCED (source-only confirmation, Low severity)
**Impact:** none / defense-in-depth / latent (see below)
**Confidence:** certain

## Mechanism (source-traced)

CONFIRMED by source trace. vfs_stdaccount takes int64_t delta(:149), adds to uint64_t ac_bytes(:160) and per-chunk uint64_t space(:168-169). Negative delta exceeding the counter wraps to near UINT64_MAX. Gated by vfs_quota_enabled.

## Kernel references (confirmed)
- `sys/kern/vfs_quota.c:149`
- `sys/kern/vfs_quota.c:160`
- `sys/kern/vfs_quota.c:168`

## Fix

Reject negative deltas that would wrap the unsigned byte counters. Supersedes finding proposal.

The standalone git-apply-able diff is in `fix.diff`.

## Build validation

`fix.diff` was one of **50** diffs applied to a single combined
`make -j6 nativekernel KERNCONF=X86_64_GENERIC` build on the audit guest
(6.5-DEVELOPMENT #0, INVARIANTS ON). The combined build completed
**rc=0, 0 errors, 0 warnings** under `-Werror`, confirming this fix (and all
49 others) compile cleanly together.
