squashfs: be more careful about metadata corruption

2018-08-06T14:24:40+00:00

commit 01cfb7937a9af2abb1136c7e89fbf3fd92952956 upstream.

Anatoly Trosinenko reports that a corrupted squashfs image can cause a
kernel oops.  It turns out that squashfs can end up being confused about
negative fragment lengths.

The regular squashfs_read_data() does check for negative lengths, but
squashfs_read_metadata() did not, and the fragment size code just
blindly trusted the on-disk value.  Fix both the fragment parsing and
the metadata reading code.

Squashfs: Generalise paging handling in the decompressors

2013-11-20T03:59:01+00:00

Further generalise the decompressors by adding a page handler
abstraction.  This adds helpers to allow the decompressors
to access and process the output buffers in an implementation
independant manner.

This allows different types of output buffer to be passed
to the decompressors, with the implementation specific
aspects handled at decompression time, but without the
knowledge being held in the decompressor wrapper code.

This will allow the decompressors to handle Squashfs
cache buffers, and page cache pages.

This patch adds the abstraction and an implementation for
the caches.

Squashfs: optimise squashfs_cache_get entry search

2011-12-30T01:24:13+00:00

squashfs_cache_get() iterates over all entries to search for
 block its looking for. Often get() / put() are called for
 same block.

If we cache the current entry index, then we can optimise the
subsequent *_get() calls.

Squashfs: add missing block release on error condition

2011-12-30T01:20:14+00:00

squashfs_read_metadata forgets to release the cache block if
an error has occurred.

Squashfs: move squashfs_i() definition from squashfs.h

2011-01-13T21:24:15+00:00

Move squashfs_i() definition out of squashfs.h, this eliminates
the need to #include squashfs_fs_i.h from numerous files.
