affs: fix remount failure when there are no options changed

2016-06-08T01:14:32+00:00

commit 01d6e08711bf90bc4d7ead14a93a0cbd73b1896a upstream.

Commit c8f33d0bec99 ("affs: kstrdup() memory handling") checks if the
kstrdup function returns NULL due to out-of-memory condition.

However, if we are remounting a filesystem with no change to
filesystem-specific options, the parameter data is NULL.  In this case,
kstrdup returns NULL (because it was passed NULL parameter), although no
out of memory condition exists.  The mount syscall then fails with
ENOMEM.

This patch fixes the bug.  We fail with ENOMEM only if data is non-NULL.

The patch also changes the call to replace_mount_options - if we didn't
pass any filesystem-specific options, we don't call
replace_mount_options (thus we don't erase existing reported options).

fs/affs: make root lookup from blkdev logical size

2015-09-10T20:29:01+00:00

This patch resolves https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16531.

When logical blkdev size > 512 then sector numbers become larger than the
device can support.

Make affs start lookup based on the device's logical sector size instead
of 512.

Pull more vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "Assorted VFS fixes and related cleanups (IMO the most interesting in
  that part are f_path-related things and Eric's descriptor-related
  stuff).  UFS regression fixes (it got broken last cycle).  9P fixes.
  fs-cache series, DAX patches, Jan's file_remove_suid() work"

[ I'd say this is much more than "fixes and related cleanups".  The
  file_table locking rule change by Eric Dumazet is a rather big and
  fundamental update even if the patch isn't huge.   - Linus ]

fs: cleanup slight list_entry abuse

2015-06-23T22:01:59+00:00

list_entry is just a wrapper for container_of, but it is arguably
wrong (and slightly confusing) to use it when the pointed-to struct
member is not a struct list_head. Use container_of directly instead.

affs: kstrdup() memory handling

2015-04-17T13:04:09+00:00

There is a possibility of kstrdup() failure upon memory pressure.
Therefore, returning ENOMEM even for new_opts.
