lib/xz: Validate the value before assigning it to an enum variable

2021-11-18T18:16:17+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4f8d7abaa413c34da9d751289849dbfb7c977d05 ] This might matter, for example, if the underlying type of enum xz_check was a signed char. In such a case the validation wouldn't have caught an unsupported header. I don't know if this problem can occur in the kernel on any arch but it's still good to fix it because some people might copy the XZ code to their own projects from Linux instead of the upstream XZ Embedded repository. This change may increase the code size by a few bytes. An alternative would have been to use an unsigned int instead of enum xz_check but using an enumeration looks cleaner.

lib/xz: Avoid overlapping memcpy() with invalid input with in-place decompression

2021-11-18T18:16:17+00:00

[ Upstream commit 83d3c4f22a36d005b55f44628f46cc0d319a75e8 ] With valid files, the safety margin described in lib/decompress_unxz.c ensures that these buffers cannot overlap. But if the uncompressed size of the input is larger than the caller thought, which is possible when the input file is invalid/corrupt, the buffers can overlap. Obviously the result will then be garbage (and usually the decoder will return an error too) but no other harm will happen when such an over-run occurs. This change only affects uncompressed LZMA2 chunks and so this should have no effect on performance.

lib: Revert use of fallthrough pseudo-keyword in lib/

The following build error for powerpc64 was reported by Nathan Chancellor: "$ scripts/config --file arch/powerpc/configs/powernv_defconfig -e KERNEL_XZ $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64le-linux- distclean powernv_defconfig zImage ...

I am not sure what the solution is, the PowerPC wrapper does not set -D__KERNEL__ so I am not sure that compiler_attributes.h can be safely included." In order to avoid these sort of problems, it seems that the best solution is to use /* fall through */ comments instead of the fallthrough pseudo-keyword macro in lib/, for now.

Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary fall-through markings when it is the case.

docs: move remaining stuff under Documentation/*.txt to Documentation/staging

2020-06-19T20:17:05+00:00

There are several files that I was unable to find a proper place for them, and 3 ones that are still in plain old text format. Let's place those stuff behind the carpet, as we'd like to keep the root directory clean. We can later discuss and move those into better places.

s->dict.allocated was initialized to 0 but never set after a successful allocation, thus the code always thought that the dictionary buffer has to be reallocated.
