Subject: [PATCH 0/3] netfs, cachefiles: Miscellaneous fixes
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2026 13:02:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260824120224.504575-1-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
Hi Christian,
Here are a couple of miscellaneous fixes for netfslib and one for cachefiles,
if you could pick them up?
(1) Fix an uninitialised return value from netfs_unbuffered_write().
(2) Fix read progress reporting to avoid 64-bit tearing on a 32-bit
machine. This has been modified from the previous submission as part
of a different series to take account of a sashiko reported issue[1].
(3) Fix a potential UAF/KASAN warning reported by sashiko[1] in cachefiles in
which the coherency data buffer is cast to a __be64* and dereferenced in
a tracepoint - even though it might not be at least that large (or
aligned).
The patches can also be found here:

Thanks,
David
