<id>urn:sha1:66c7c239c65341f99ae388d4d53dc9df2bcb9925</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 8c97a6ddc95690a938ded44b4e3202f03f15078c ]

The fs/minix implementation of the minix filesystem does not currently
support any other value for s_log_zone_size than 0. This is also the
only value supported in util-linux; see mkfs.minix.c line 511. In
addition, this patch adds some sanity checking for the other minix
superblock fields, and moves the minix_blocks_needed() checks for the
zmap and imap also to minix_check_super_block().

This also closes a related syzbot bug report.

[ Upstream commit 73861970938ad1323eb02bbbc87f6fbd1e5bacca ]

The inode mode loaded from corrupted disk can be invalid. Do like what
commit 0a9e74051313 ("isofs: Verify inode mode when loading from disk")
does.

<title>vfs: open inside -&gt;tmpfile()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:863f144f12add1f4eab80b70561a90857c524a8b</id>
<content type='text'>
This is in preparation for adding tmpfile support to fuse, which requires
that the tmpfile creation and opening are done as a single operation.

Replace the 'struct dentry *' argument of i_op-&gt;tmpfile with
'struct file *'.

Call finish_open_simple() as the last thing in -&gt;tmpfile() instances (may
be omitted in the error case).

Change d_tmpfile() argument to 'struct file *' as well to make callers more
readable.

<content type='text'>
This function is NOT converted to handle large folios, so include
an assert that the filesystem isn't passing one in.  Otherwise, use
the folio functions instead of the page functions, where they exist.
Convert all filesystems which use block_read_full_page().

<id>urn:sha1:9ce3c0d26c42d279b6c378a03cd6a61d828f19ca</id>
<content type='text'>
Testcase:
1. create a minix file system and mount it
2. open a file on the file system with O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_DIRECT
3. open fails with -EINVAL but leaves an empty file behind. All other
   open() failures don't leave the failed open files behind.

It is hard to check the direct_IO op before creating the inode.  Just as
ext4 and btrfs do, this patch will resolve the issue by allowing to
create the file with O_DIRECT but returning error when writing the file.

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-&gt;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-&gt;invalidatepage() becomes -&gt;invalidate_folio() and has a
     similar type change.

   - a_ops-&gt;launder_page() becomes -&gt;launder_folio()

   - a_ops-&gt;set_page_dirty() becomes -&gt;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"

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