If both compression and fsverity feature is on, generic/572 will report below NULL pointer dereference bug. BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 RIP: 0010:f2fs_verity_work+0x60/0x90 [f2fs] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode Workqueue: fsverity_read_queue f2fs_verity_work [f2fs] RIP: 0010:f2fs_verity_work+0x60/0x90 [f2fs] Call Trace: process_one_work+0x16c/0x3f0 worker_thread+0x4c/0x440 ? rescuer_thread+0x350/0x350 kthread+0xf8/0x130 ? kthread_unpark+0x70/0x70 ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 There are two issue in f2fs_verity_work(): - it needs to traverse and verify all pages in bio. - if pages in bio belong to non-compressed cluster, accessing decompress IO context stored in page private will cause NULL pointer dereference. Fix them. Signed-off-by: Chao Yu <yuchao0@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
