<id>urn:sha1:b226804532a875c10276168dc55ce752944096bd</id>
<content type='text'>
In a06ec283e125 next_id, folder_count, and file_count in the super block
info were expanded to 64 bits, and BUG_ONs were added to detect
overflow. This triggered an error reported by syzbot: if the MDB is
corrupted, the BUG_ON is triggered. This patch replaces this mechanism
with proper error handling and resolves the syzbot reported bug.

Pull hfs/hfsplus updates from Viacheslav Dubeyko:
 "Several fixes for syzbot reported issues, HFS/HFS+ fixes of xfstests
  failures, Kunit-based unit-tests introduction, and code cleanup:

   - Dan Carpenter fixed a potential use-after-free issue in
     hfs_correct_next_unused_CNID() method. Tetsuo Handa has made nice
     fix of syzbot reported issue related to incorrect inode-&gt;i_mode
     management if volume has been corrupted somehow. Yang Chenzhi has
     made really good fix of potential race condition in
     __hfs_bnode_create() method for HFS+ file system.

   - Several fixes to xfstests failures. Particularly, generic/070,
     generic/073, and generic/101 test-cases finish successfully for the
     case of HFS+ file system right now.

   - HFS and HFS+ drivers share multiple structures of on-disk layout
     declarations. Some structures are used without any change. However,
     we had two independent declarations of the same structures in HFS
     and HFS+ drivers.

     The on-disk layout declarations have been moved into
     include/linux/hfs_common.h with the goal to exclude the
     declarations duplication and to keep the HFS/HFS+ on-disk layout
     declarations in one place.

     Also, this patch prepares the basis for creating a hfslib that can
     aggregate common functionality without necessity to duplicate the
     same code in HFS and HFS+ drivers.

   - HFS/HFS+ really need unit-tests because of multiple xfstests
     failures. The first two patches introduce Kunit-based unit-tests
     for the case string operations in HFS/HFS+ file system drivers"

[   45.643650][ T9821] ==================================================================

This commit [1] fixes the issue if an offset inside of b-tree node
or length of the request is bigger than b-tree node. However,
this fix is still not ready for negative values
of the offset or length. Moreover, negative values of
the offset or length doesn't make sense for b-tree's
operations. Because we could try to access the memory address
outside of the beginning of memory page's addresses range.
Also, using of negative values make logic very complicated,
unpredictable, and we could access the wrong item(s)
in the b-tree node.

This patch changes b-tree interface by means of converting
signed integer arguments of offset and length on u32 type.
Such conversion has goal to prevent of using negative values
unintentionally or by mistake in b-tree operations.

All places were patched by coccinelle with the default expecting that
-&gt;i_lock is held, afterwards entries got fixed up by hand to use
unlocked variants as needed.

Currently, HFS/HFS+ has very obsolete and inconvenient
debug output subsystem. Also, the code is duplicated
in HFS and HFS+ driver. This patch introduces
linux/hfs_common.h for gathering common declarations,
inline functions, and common short methods. Currently,
this file contains only hfs_dbg() function that
employs pr_debug() with the goal to print a debug-level
messages conditionally.

So, now, it is possible to enable the debug output
by means of:

echo 'file extent.c +p' &gt; /proc/dynamic_debug/control
echo 'func hfsplus_evict_inode +p' &gt; /proc/dynamic_debug/control

And debug output looks like this:

hfs: pid 5831:fs/hfs/catalog.c:228 hfs_cat_delete(): delete_cat: 00,48
hfs: pid 5831:fs/hfs/extent.c:484 hfs_file_truncate(): truncate: 48, 409600 -&gt; 0
hfs: pid 5831:fs/hfs/extent.c:212 hfs_dump_extent():
hfs: pid 5831:fs/hfs/extent.c:214 hfs_dump_extent():  78:4
hfs: pid 5831:fs/hfs/extent.c:214 hfs_dump_extent():  0:0
hfs: pid 5831:fs/hfs/extent.c:214 hfs_dump_extent():  0:0

v4
Debug messages have been reworked and information about
new HFS/HFS+ shared declarations file has been added
to MAINTAINERS file.

v5
Yangtao Li suggested to clean up debug output and
fix several typos.

The generic/736 xfstest fails for HFS case:

The main reason of the issue is the absence of logic that
corrects mdb-&gt;drNxtCNID/HFS_SB(sb)-&gt;next_id (next unused
CNID) after deleting a record in Catalog File. This patch
introduces a hfs_correct_next_unused_CNID() method that
implements the necessary logic. In the case of Catalog File's
record delete operation, the function logic checks that
(deleted_CNID + 1) == next_unused_CNID and it finds/sets the new
value of next_unused_CNID.

Pull hfs/hfsplus updates from Viacheslav Dubeyko:
 "Johannes Thumshirn has made nice cleanup in hfsplus_submit_bio().

  Tetsuo Handa has fixed the syzbot reported issue in
  hfsplus_create_attributes_file() for the case of corruption the
  Attributes File's metadata.

  Yangtao Li has fixed the syzbot reported issue by removing the
  uneccessary WARN_ON() in hfsplus_free_extents().

  Other fixes:

   - restore generic/001 successful execution by erasing deleted b-tree
     nodes

   - eliminate slab-out-of-bounds issue in hfs_bnode_read() and
     hfsplus_bnode_read() by checking correctness of offset and length
     when accessing b-tree node contents

   - eliminate slab-out-of-bounds read in hfsplus_uni2asc() if the
     b-tree node record has corrupted length of a name that could be
     bigger than HFSPLUS_MAX_STRLEN

   - eliminate general protection fault in hfs_find_init() for the case
     of initial b-tree object creation"

Pull mmap_prepare updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Last cycle we introduce f_op-&gt;mmap_prepare() in c84bf6dd2b83 ("mm:
  introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback").

  This is preferred to the existing f_op-&gt;mmap() hook as it does require
  a VMA to be established yet, thus allowing the mmap logic to invoke
  this hook far, far earlier, prior to inserting a VMA into the virtual
  address space, or performing any other heavy handed operations.

  This allows for much simpler unwinding on error, and for there to be a
  single attempt at merging a VMA rather than having to possibly
  reattempt a merge based on potentially altered VMA state.

  Far more importantly, it prevents inappropriate manipulation of
  incompletely initialised VMA state, which is something that has been
  the cause of bugs and complexity in the past.

  The intent is to gradually deprecate f_op-&gt;mmap, and in that vein this
  series coverts the majority of file systems to using f_op-&gt;mmap_prepare.

  Prerequisite steps are taken - firstly ensuring all checks for mmap
  capabilities use the file_has_valid_mmap_hooks() helper rather than
  directly checking for f_op-&gt;mmap (which is now not a valid check) and
  secondly updating daxdev_mapping_supported() to not require a VMA
  parameter to allow ext4 and xfs to be converted.

  Commit bb666b7c2707 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for
  nested file systems") handles the nasty edge-case of nested file
  systems like overlayfs, which introduces a compatibility shim to allow
  f_op-&gt;mmap_prepare() to be invoked from an f_op-&gt;mmap() callback.

  This allows for nested filesystems to continue to function correctly
  with all file systems regardless of which callback is used. Once we
  finally convert all file systems, this shim can be removed.

  As a result, ecryptfs, fuse, and overlayfs remain unaltered so they
  can nest all other file systems.

  We additionally do not update resctl - as this requires an update to
  remap_pfn_range() (or an alternative to it) which we defer to a later
  series, equally we do not update cramfs which needs a mixed mapping
  insertion with the same issue, nor do we update procfs, hugetlbfs,
  syfs or kernfs all of which require VMAs for internal state and hooks.
  We shall return to all of these later"

<content type='text'>
Change the address_space_operations callbacks write_begin() and
write_end() to take struct kiocb * as the first argument instead of
struct file *.

Update all affected function prototypes, implementations, call sites,
and related documentation across VFS, filesystems, and block layer.

Part of a series refactoring address_space_operations write_begin and
write_end callbacks to use struct kiocb for passing write context and
flags.

Since 5.10, splice() or sendfile() return EINVAL. This was
caused by commit 36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write
without explicit ops").

This patch initializes the splice_write field in file_operations, like
most file systems do, to restore the functionality.
