commit 7102ffe4c166ca0f5e35137e9f9de83768c2d27d upstream.

According to document and code, ext4_xattr_header's size is 32 bytes, so
h_reserved size should be 3.

commit 2efc459d06f1630001e3984854848a5647086232 upstream.

Output defects can exist in sysfs content using sprintf and snprintf.

sprintf does not know the PAGE_SIZE maximum of the temporary buffer
used for outputting sysfs content and it's possible to overrun the
PAGE_SIZE buffer length.

Add a generic sysfs_emit function that knows that the size of the
temporary buffer and ensures that no overrun is done.

Add a generic sysfs_emit_at function that can be used in multiple
call situations that also ensures that no overrun is done.

Validate the output buffer argument to be page aligned.
Validate the offset len argument to be within the PAGE_SIZE buf.

<title>seq_file: document how per-entry resources are managed.</title>

commit b3656d8227f4c45812c6b40815d8f4e446ed372a upstream.

Patch series "Fix some seq_file users that were recently broken".

A recent change to seq_file broke some users which were using seq_file
in a non-"standard" way ...  though the "standard" isn't documented, so
they can be excused.  The result is a possible leak - of memory in one
case, of references to a 'transport' in the other.

These three patches:
 1/ document and explain the problem
 2/ fix the problem user in x86
 3/ fix the problem user in net/sctp

This patch (of 3):

Users of seq_file will sometimes find it convenient to take a resource,
such as a lock or memory allocation, in the -&gt;start or -&gt;next operations.
These are per-entry resources, distinct from per-session resources which
are taken in -&gt;start and released in -&gt;stop.

The preferred management of these is release the resource on the
subsequent call to -&gt;next or -&gt;stop.

However prior to Commit 1f4aace60b0e ("fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file
iteration code and interface") it happened that -&gt;show would always be
called after -&gt;start or -&gt;next, and a few users chose to release the
resource in -&gt;show.

This is no longer reliable.  Since the mentioned commit, -&gt;next will
always come after a successful -&gt;show (to ensure m-&gt;index is updated
correctly), so the original ordering cannot be maintained.

This patch updates the documentation to clearly state the required
behaviour.  Other patches will fix the few problematic users.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix typo, per Willy]

<title>affs: fix basic permission bits to actually work</title>

commit d3a84a8d0dde4e26bc084b36ffcbdc5932ac85e2 upstream.

The basic permission bits (protection bits in AmigaOS) have been broken
in Linux' AFFS - it would only set bits, but never delete them.
Also, contrary to the documentation, the Archived bit was not handled.

Let's fix this for good, and set the bits such that Linux and classic
AmigaOS can coexist in the most peaceful manner.

Also, update the documentation to represent the current state of things.

commit d9a9f4849fe0c9d560851ab22a85a666cddfdd24 upstream.

several iterations of -&gt;atomic_open() calling conventions ago, we
used to need fput() if -&gt;atomic_open() failed at some point after
successful finish_open().  Now (since 2016) it's not needed -
struct file carries enough state to make fput() work regardless
of the point in struct file lifecycle and discarding it on
failure exits in open() got unified.  Unfortunately, I'd missed
the fact that we had an instance of -&gt;atomic_open() (cifs one)
that used to need that fput(), as well as the stale comment in
finish_open() demanding such late failure handling.  Trivially
fixed...

Pull fuse virtio-fs support from Miklos Szeredi:
 "Virtio-fs allows exporting directory trees on the host and mounting
  them in guest(s).

  This isn't actually a new filesystem, but a glue layer between the
  fuse filesystem and a virtio based back-end.

  It's similar in functionality to the existing virtio-9p solution, but
  significantly faster in benchmarks and has better POSIX compliance.
  Further permformance improvements can be achieved by sharing the page
  cache between host and guest, allowing for faster I/O and reduced
  memory use.

  Kata Containers have been including the out-of-tree virtio-fs (with
  the shared page cache patches as well) since version 1.7 as an
  experimental feature. They have been active in development and plan to
  switch from virtio-9p to virtio-fs as their default solution. There
  has been interest from other sources as well.

  The userspace infrastructure is slated to be merged into qemu once the
  kernel part hits mainline.

  This was developed by Vivek Goyal, Dave Gilbert and Stefan Hajnoczi"

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, we introduced casefolding support in f2fs, and fixed
  various bugs in individual features such as IO alignment,
  checkpoint=disable, quota, and swapfile.

  Enhancement:
   - support casefolding w/ enhancement in ext4
   - support fiemap for directory
   - support FS_IO_GET|SET_FSLABEL

  Bug fix:
   - fix IO stuck during checkpoint=disable
   - avoid infinite GC loop
   - fix panic/overflow related to IO alignment feature
   - fix livelock in swap file
   - fix discard command leak
   - disallow dio for atomic_write"

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "Added new ext4 debugging ioctls to allow userspace to get information
  about the state of the extent status cache.

  Dropped workaround for pre-1970 dates which were encoded incorrectly
  in pre-4.4 kernels. Since both the kernel correctly generates, and
  e2fsck detects and fixes this issue for the past four years, it'e time
  to drop the workaround. (Also, it's not like files with dates in the
  distant past were all that common in the first place.)

  A lot of miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanups, including some ext4
  Documentation fixes. Also included are two minor bug fixes in
  fs/unicode"
