block/partition: fix signedness issue for Amiga partitions

2023-07-27T06:37:29+00:00

commit 7eb1e47696aa231b1a567846bbe3a1e1befe1854 upstream.

Making 'blk' sector_t (i.e. 64 bit if LBD support is active) fails the
'blk>0' test in the partition block loop if a value of (signed int) -1 is
used to mark the end of the partition block list.

Explicitly cast 'blk' to signed int to allow use of -1 to terminate the
partition block linked list.

block: add overflow checks for Amiga partition support

2023-07-27T06:37:27+00:00

commit b6f3f28f604ba3de4724ad82bea6adb1300c0b5f upstream.

The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector
address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB.

Use u64 as type for sector address and size to allow using disks up to
2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD. The RBD
format allows to specify disk sizes up to 2^128 bytes (though native
OS limitations reduce this somewhat, to max 2^68 bytes), so check for
u64 overflow carefully to protect against overflowing sector_t.

Bail out if sector addresses overflow 32 bits on kernels without LBD
support.

This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by
the RDB author, Joanne Dow . A patch had been
discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially
submitted (now resubmitted as patch 1 in this series).
This patch adds additional error checking and warning messages.

block: fix signed int overflow in Amiga partition support

2023-07-27T06:37:19+00:00

commit fc3d092c6bb48d5865fec15ed5b333c12f36288c upstream.

The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector
address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB.

Use sector_t as type for sector address and size to allow using disks
up to 2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD.

This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by
the RDB author, Joanne Dow . A patch had been
discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially
submitted. This patch differs from Joanne's patch only in its use of
sector_t instead of unsigned int. No checking for overflows is done
(see patch 3 of this series for that).

docs: block: convert to ReST

2019-07-15T12:20:27+00:00

Rename the block documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

partitions/aix: append null character to print data from disk

2018-07-27T15:17:41+00:00

Even if properly initialized, the lvname array (i.e., strings)
is read from disk, and might contain corrupt data (e.g., lack
the null terminating character for strings).

So, make sure the partition name string used in pr_warn() has
the null terminating character.
