* [PATCH] corrupted cramfs filesystems cause kernel oopsPhillip Lougher2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Steve Grubb's fzfuzzer tool (http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/ fsfuzzer-0.6.tar.gz) generates corrupt Cramfs filesystems which cause Cramfs to kernel oops in cramfs_uncompress_block(). The cause of the oops is an unchecked corrupted block length field read by cramfs_readpage(). This patch adds a sanity check to cramfs_readpage() which checks that the block length field is sensible. The (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1) size check is intentional, even though the uncompressed data is not going to be larger than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, gzip sometimes generates compressed data larger than the original source data. Mkcramfs checks that the compressed size is always less than or equal to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1. Of course Cramfs could use the original uncompressed data in this case, but it doesn't.

* [PATCH] handle ext4 directory corruption betterEric Sandeen2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've been using Steve Grubb's purely evil "fsfuzzer" tool, at http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/fsfuzzer-0.4.tar.gz Basically it makes a filesystem, splats some random bits over it, then tries to mount it and do some simple filesystem actions. At best, the filesystem catches the corruption gracefully. At worst, things spin out of control. As you might guess, we found a couple places in ext4 where things spin out of control :) First, we had a corrupted directory that was never checked for consistency... it was corrupt, and pointed to another bad "entry" of length 0. The for() loop looped forever, since the length of ext4_next_entry(de) was 0, and we kept looking at the same pointer over and over and over and over... I modeled this check and subsequent action on what is done for other directory types in ext4_readdir... (adding this check adds some computational expense; I am testing a followup patch to reduce the number of times we check and re-check these directory entries, in all cases. Thanks for the idea, Andreas). Next we had a root directory inode which had a corrupted size, claimed to be > 200M on a 4M filesystem. There was only really 1 block in the directory, but because the size was so large, readdir kept coming back for more, spewing thousands of printk's along the way. Per Andreas' suggestion, if we're in this read error condition and we're trying to read an offset which is greater than i_blocks worth of bytes, stop trying, and break out of the loop. With these two changes fsfuzz test survives quite well on ext4.

However, schedule_work() guarantees that the target work is executed at least once after the scheduling regardless of its return value. 0 return simply means that the work was already pending and thus no further action was required.

* [PATCH] fuse: add DESTROY operationMiklos Szeredi2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a DESTROY operation for block device based filesystems. With the help of this operation, such a filesystem can flush dirty data to the device synchronously before the umount returns. This is needed in situations where the filesystem is assumed to be clean immediately after unmount (e.g. ejecting removable media).

* [PATCH] fuse: add support for block device based filesystemsMiklos Szeredi2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I never intended this, but people started using fuse to implement block device based "real" filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs). The following four patches add better support for these kinds of filesystems. Unlike "normal" fuse filesystems, using this feature should require superuser privileges (enforced by the fusermount utility). Thanks to Szabolcs Szakacsits for the input and testing. This patch adds a 'fuseblk' filesystem type, which is only different from the 'fuse' filesystem type in how the 'dev_name' mount argument is interpreted.

* [PATCH] Fix check_partition routinesSuzuki K P2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | check_partition() stops its probe once it hits an I/O error from the partition checkers. This would prevent the actual partition checker getting a chance to verify the partition. So this patch lets check_partition() continue probing untill it hits a success while recording the I/O error which might have been reported by the checking routines. Also, it does some cleanup of the partition methods for ibm, atari and amiga to return -1 upon hitting an I/O error.

* [PATCH] fix rescan_partitions to return errors properlySuzuki Kp2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current rescan_partition implementation ignores the errors that comes from the lower layer. It reports success for unknown partitions as well as I/O error cases while reading the partition information. The unknown partition is not (and will not be) considered as an error in the kernel, since there are legal users of it (e.g, members of a RAID5 MD Device or a new disk which is not partitioned at all ). Changing this behaviour would scare the user about a serious problem with their disk and is not recommended. Thus for both "unknown partitions" to the Linux (eg., DEC VMS,Novell Netware) and the legal users of NULL partition, would still be reported as "SUCCESS". The patch attached here, scares the user about something which he does need to worry about. i.e, returning -EIO on disk I/O errors while reading the partition information.
