nilfs2: reject zero bd_oblocknr in nilfs_ioctl_mark_blocks_dirty()

2026-03-31T18:05:55+00:00

nilfs_ioctl_mark_blocks_dirty() uses bd_oblocknr to detect dead blocks by comparing it with the current block number bd_blocknr. If they differ, the block is considered dead and skipped. However, bd_oblocknr should never be 0 since block 0 typically stores the primary superblock and is never a valid GC target block. A corrupted ioctl request with bd_oblocknr set to 0 causes the comparison to incorrectly match when the lookup returns -ENOENT and sets bd_blocknr to 0, bypassing the dead block check and calling nilfs_bmap_mark() on a non-existent block. This causes nilfs_btree_do_lookup() to return -ENOENT, triggering the WARN_ON(ret == -ENOENT). Fix this by rejecting ioctl requests with bd_oblocknr set to 0 at the beginning of each iteration.

nilfs2: replace vmalloc + copy_from_user with vmemdup_user

2025-11-12T18:00:17+00:00

Replace vmalloc() followed by copy_from_user() with vmemdup_user() to improve nilfs_ioctl_clean_segments() and nilfs_ioctl_set_suinfo(). Use kvfree() to free the buffers created by vmemdup_user(). Use u64_to_user_ptr() instead of manually casting the pointers and remove the obsolete 'out_free' label. No functional changes intended.

tree-wide: s/struct fileattr/struct file_kattr/g

2025-07-04T14:14:39+00:00

Now that we expose struct file_attr as our uapi struct rename all the internal struct to struct file_kattr to clearly communicate that it is a kernel internal struct. This is similar to struct mount_{k}attr and others. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250703-restlaufzeit-baurecht-9ed44552b481@brauner Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner

nilfs2: revise the return value description style for consistency.

nilfs2: correct return value kernel-doc descriptions for ioctl functions

2025-01-25T06:47:24+00:00

Patch series "nilfs2: fix kernel-doc comments for function return values", v2. This series fixes the inadequacies in the return value descriptions in nilfs2's kernel-doc comments (mainly incorrect formatting), as well as the lack of return value descriptions themselves, and fixes most of the remaining warnings that are output when the kernel-doc script is run with the "-Wall" option. This patch (of 7): In the kernel-doc comments for functions, there are many cases where the format of the return value description is inaccurate, such as "Return Value: ...", which causes many warnings to be output when the kernel-doc script is executed with the "-Wall" option. This fixes such incorrectly formatted return value descriptions for ioctl functions.

nilfs2: use div64_ul() instead of do_div()

Fixes Coccinelle/coccicheck warnings reported by do_div.cocci. Compared to do_div(), div64_ul() does not implicitly cast the divisor and does not unnecessarily calculate the remainder.
