fat: fix oops on corrupted vfat fs

2014-12-03T17:36:03+00:00

a) don't bother with ->d_time for positives - we only check it for
   negatives anyway.

b) make sure to set it at unlink and rmdir time - at *that* point
   soon-to-be negative dentry matches then-current directory contents

c) don't go into renaming of old alias in vfat_lookup() unless it
   has the same parent (which it will, unless we are seeing corrupted
   image)

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2014-06-12T17:30:18+00:00

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "This the bunch that sat in -next + lock_parent() fix.  This is the
  minimal set; there's more pending stuff.

  In particular, I really hope to get acct.c fixes merged this cycle -
  we need that to deal sanely with delayed-mntput stuff.  In the next
  pile, hopefully - that series is fairly short and localized
  (kernel/acct.c, fs/super.c and fs/namespace.c).  In this pile: more
  iov_iter work.  Most of prereqs for ->splice_write with sane locking
  order are there and Kent's dio rewrite would also fit nicely on top of
  this pile"

fs/fat/inode.c: clean up string initializations (char[] instead of char *)

2014-06-06T23:08:11+00:00

Initializations like 'char *foo = "bar"' will create two variables: a
static string and a pointer (foo) to that static string.  Instead 'char
foo[] = "bar"' will declare a single variable and will end up in shorter
assembly (according to Jeff Garzik on the KernelJanitor's TODO list).

fs/fat/: add support for DOS 1.x formatted volumes

2014-06-06T23:08:10+00:00

Add structure for parsed BPB information, struct fat_bios_param_block,
and move all of the deserialization and validation logic from
fat_fill_super() into fat_read_bpb().

Add a 'dos1xfloppy' mount option to infer DOS 2.x BIOS Parameter Block
defaults from block device geometry for ancient floppies and floppy
images, as a fall-back from the default BPB parsing logic.

When fat_read_bpb() finds an invalid FAT filesystem and dos1xfloppy is
set, fall back to fat_read_static_bpb().  fat_read_static_bpb()
validates that the entire BPB is zero, and that the floppy has a
DOS-style 8086 code bootstrapping header.  Then it fills in default BPB
values from media size and a table.[0]

Media size is assumed to be static for archaic FAT volumes.  See also:
[1].

Fixes kernel.org bug #42617.
