[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: init: open output files from cpio unpacking with O_LARGEFILE
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     init-open-output-files-from-cpio-unpacking-with-o_largefile.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: init: open output files from cpio unpacking with O_LARGEFILE
Date: Sat, 23 Mar 2024 08:29:34 -0700

If a member of a cpio archive for an initrd or initrams is larger than
2Gb, we'll eventually fail to write to that file when we get to that
limit, unless O_LARGEFILE is set.

The problem can be seen with this recipe, assuming that BLK_DEV_RAM
is not configured:

cd /tmp
dd if=/dev/zero of=BIGFILE bs=1048576 count=2200
echo BIGFILE | cpio -o -H newc -R root:root > initrd.img
kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-$(uname -r) --initrd=initrd.img --reuse-cmdline
kexec -e

The console will show 'Initramfs unpacking failed: write error'.  With
the patch, the error is gone.
