Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ext4/jbd2: misc 3.17 bugfixes, part 2
Date: Sun, 14 Sep 2014 10:32:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140914173252.31996.86784.stgit@birch.djwong.org> (raw)
Hi all,
Here are two more patches against 3.17-rc4 to fix some minor problems
in jbd2 and ext4. Neither of these two depend on each other; they fix
separate small bugs.
The first patch teaches ext4 to check the e_value_offs value in the
extended attribute data structure to avoid data corruption and
kernel crashes resulting from the corruption. This fixes the crash I
alluded to in the previous 3.17 bugfixes email pile.
The second patch fixes a bh leak in the journal replay code when a
descriptor block fails checksum verification.
Patches are against 3.17-rc4, and have been xfstest'd.
Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
