(one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to

It turned out that mounting a corrupted ISO image to a regular file may
succeed, e.g. if an image was prepared as follows:$ dd if=correct.iso of=bad.iso bs=4k count=8
We then can mount it to a regular file:
# mount -o loop -t iso9660 bad.iso /tmp/file
But mounting it to a directory fails with -ENOTDIR, simply because
the root directory inode doesn't have S_IFDIR set and the condition
in graft_tree() is met:if (S_ISDIR(nd->dentry->d_inode->i_mode) !=
S_ISDIR(mnt->mnt_root->d_inode->i_mode))
return -ENOTDIRThis is because the root directory inode was read from an incorrect
block. It's supposed to be read from sbi->s_firstdatazone, which is
an absolute value and gets messed up in the case of an incorrect image.In order to somehow circumvent this we have to check that the root
directory inode is actually a directory after all.Signed-off-by: Kirill Kuvaldin

I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by
SLAB.I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free. That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code
in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree).There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter

There was an I/O error that prevented reading the last partial block of
large files in an ISO9660 filesystem. The error was generated when a file
comprised more than one section and had a size that was not an exact
multiple of the filesystem block size. This patch removes the check (and
failure) for reading into the last partial block (and possibly beyond) for
multiple-section files.It worked in my testing to prevent reading beyond the end of the section;
my first patch just incremented the sect_size block count for a partial
block and continued doing the check. But there is a commment in the source
code about reading beyond the end of the file to fill a page cache.
Failing to access beyond the section would prevent reading beyond the end
of the file.Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton

to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr

values for i_blksize.[bunk@stusta.de: cleanup]

Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock
pointer.This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of
sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does
require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits
the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build
successfully.Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds -
Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.The patch also makes the following changes:
(*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
very little.(*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().(*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
dentries being left unculled.However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
with child trees.[*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
(*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.[akpm@osdl.org: convert ipath_fs, do other stuff]

Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD

in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate
from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the
memory nodes (task->mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring
allocation on the node local to the current cpu.The following inode and similar caches are marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD:

those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache,
inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch. Even
though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same
potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory
spreading.Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a
SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use
the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain.
Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system
slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.Signed-off-by: Paul Jackson

The current isofs treatment of hidden files is flawed in two ways. First,
it does not provide sufficient granularity; it hides both 'hidden' files
and 'associated' files (resource fork for Mac files). Second, the default
behavior to completely strip hidden files, while an admirable
implementation of the spec, is a poor choice given the real world use of
hidden files as a poor mans copy protection scheme for MSDOS and Windows
based systems. A longer description of this is available here:http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0205.3/0267.html
This patch was originally built after a few private conversations with Alan
Cox; I shamefully failed to persist in seeing it go forward, I hope to make
amends now.This patch introduces granularity by allowing explicit control for both
hidden and associated files. It also reverses the default so that by
default, hidden files are treated as regular files on the iso9660 file
system.This allow Wine to process Windows CDs, including those that are hybrid
Mac/Windows CDs properly and completely, without our having to go muck up
peoples fstabs as we do now. (I have tested this with such a hybrid +
hidden CD and have verified that this patch works as claimed).Signed-off-by: Jeremy White

that the offset+length remain within the bounds for the header part of a
struct rock_ridge directory entry.Note that the kernel can still overindex the buffer due to the variable size
of the rock-ridge directory entries. We cannot check that in rock_continue()
