hpfs: fix a crash if hpfs_map_dnode_bitmap fails

2026-06-19T11:36:59+00:00

commit 974820a59efde7c1a7e1260bcfe9bb81f833cc9f upstream. If hpfs_map_dnode_bitmap fails, the code would call hpfs_brelse4 on uninitialized quad buffer head, causing a crash. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka Reported-by: Farhad Alemi Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

fs/hpfs: Fix error code for new_inode() failure in mkdir/create/mknod/symlink

2025-12-06T21:12:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit 32058c38d3b79a28963a59ac0353644dc24775cd ] The function call new_inode() is a primitive for allocating an inode in memory, rather than planning disk space for it. Therefore, -ENOMEM should be returned as the error code rather than -ENOSPC. To be specific, new_inode()'s call path looks like this: new_inode new_inode_pseudo alloc_inode ops->alloc_inode (hpfs_alloc_inode) alloc_inode_sb kmem_cache_alloc_lru Therefore, the failure of new_inode() indicates a memory presure issue (-ENOMEM), not a lack of disk space. However, the current implementation of hpfs_mkdir/create/mknod/symlink incorrectly returns -ENOSPC when new_inode() fails. This patch fix this by set err to -ENOMEM before the goto statement. BTW, we also noticed that other nested calls within these four functions, like hpfs_alloc_f/dnode and hpfs_add_dirent, might also fail due to memory presure. But similarly, only -ENOSPC is returned. Addressing these will involve code modifications in other functions, and we plan to submit dedicated patches for these issues in the future. For this patch, we focus on new_inode().

hpfs: Convert symlinks to read_folio

2022-05-09T20:21:45+00:00

This is a "weak" conversion which converts straight back to using pages. A full conversion should be performed at some point, hopefully by someone familiar with the filesystem. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)

fs: Convert mpage_readpage to mpage_read_folio

2022-05-09T20:21:44+00:00

mpage_readpage still works in terms of pages, and has not been audited for correctness with large folios, so include an assertion that the filesystem is not passing it large folios. Convert all the filesystems to call mpage_read_folio() instead of mpage_readpage(). Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)

Pull filesystem folio updates from Matthew Wilcox: "Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations to take a folio instead of a page. Notably: - a_ops->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and changes the type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it obvious they're bytes. - a_ops->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a similar type change. - a_ops->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio() - a_ops->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the address_space as an argument. There are a couple of other misc changes up front that weren't worth separating into their own pull request" * tag 'folio-5.18b' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/pagecache: (53 commits) fs: Remove aops ->set_page_dirty fb_defio: Use noop_dirty_folio() fs: Convert __set_page_dirty_no_writeback to noop_dirty_folio fs: Convert __set_page_dirty_buffers to block_dirty_folio nilfs: Convert nilfs_set_page_dirty() to nilfs_dirty_folio() mm: Convert swap_set_page_dirty() to swap_dirty_folio() ubifs: Convert ubifs_set_page_dirty to ubifs_dirty_folio f2fs: Convert f2fs_set_node_page_dirty to f2fs_dirty_node_folio f2fs: Convert f2fs_set_data_page_dirty to f2fs_dirty_data_folio f2fs: Convert f2fs_set_meta_page_dirty to f2fs_dirty_meta_folio afs: Convert afs_dir_set_page_dirty() to afs_dir_dirty_folio() btrfs: Convert extent_range_redirty_for_io() to use folios fs: Convert trivial uses of __set_page_dirty_nobuffers to filemap_dirty_folio btrfs: Convert from set_page_dirty to dirty_folio fscache: Convert fscache_set_page_dirty() to fscache_dirty_folio() fs: Add aops->dirty_folio fs: Remove aops->launder_page orangefs: Convert launder_page to launder_folio nfs: Convert from launder_page to launder_folio fuse: Convert from launder_page to launder_folio ...

fs: allocate inode by using alloc_inode_sb()

2022-03-22T22:57:03+00:00

The inode allocation is supposed to use alloc_inode_sb(), so convert kmem_cache_alloc() of all filesystems to alloc_inode_sb().
