udf_read_tagged() skips CRC verification when descCRCLength +
sizeof(struct tag) exceeds the block size.  A crafted UDF image can
set descCRCLength to an oversized value to bypass CRC validation
entirely; the descriptor is then accepted based solely on the 8-bit
tag checksum, which is trivially recomputable.

Reject such descriptors instead of silently accepting them.  A
legitimate single-block descriptor should never have a CRC length that
exceeds the block.

Pull vfs i_ino updates from Christian Brauner:
 "For historical reasons, the inode-&gt;i_ino field is an unsigned long,
  which means that it's 32 bits on 32 bit architectures. This has caused
  a number of filesystems to implement hacks to hash a 64-bit identifier
  into a 32-bit field, and deprives us of a universal identifier field
  for an inode.

  This changes the inode-&gt;i_ino field from an unsigned long to a u64.
  This shouldn't make any material difference on 64-bit hosts, but
  32-bit hosts will see struct inode grow by at least 4 bytes. This
  could have effects on slabcache sizes and field alignment.

  The bulk of the changes are to format strings and tracepoints, since
  the kernel itself doesn't care that much about the i_ino field. The
  first patch changes some vfs function arguments, so check that one out
  carefully.

  With this change, we may be able to shrink some inode structures. For
  instance, struct nfs_inode has a fileid field that holds the 64-bit
  inode number. With this set of changes, that field could be
  eliminated. I'd rather leave that sort of cleanups for later just to
  keep this simple"

udf_setsize() can race with udf_writepages() as follows:

udf_setsize()			udf_writepages()
				  if (iinfo-&gt;i_alloc_type ==
						ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB)
  err = udf_expand_file_adinicb(inode);
  err = udf_extend_file(inode, newsize);
				    udf_adinicb_writepages()
				      memcpy_from_file_folio() - crash
					because inode size is too big.

Fix the problem by checking the file type under folio lock in
udf_handle_page_wb() handler called from __mpage_writepages() which
properly serializes with udf_expand_file_adinicb().

tracking and everybody is paying the overhead. When we remove this
tracking for inode reclaim code .evict will start to see inodes with

<content type='text'>
Mounting a crafted UDF image with repeated partition descriptors can
trigger a heap out-of-bounds write in part_descs_loc[].

handle_partition_descriptor() deduplicates entries by partition number,
but appended slots never record partnum. As a result duplicate
Partition Descriptors are appended repeatedly and num_part_descs keeps
growing.

Once the table is full, the growth path still sizes the allocation from
partnum even though inserts are indexed by num_part_descs. If partnum is
already aligned to PART_DESC_ALLOC_STEP, ALIGN(partnum, step) can keep
the old capacity and the next append writes past the end of the table.

Store partnum in the appended slot and size growth from the next append
count so deduplication and capacity tracking follow the same model.

Mounting a crafted UDF image with repeated partition descriptors can
trigger a heap out-of-bounds write in part_descs_loc[].

handle_partition_descriptor() deduplicates entries by partition number,
but appended slots never record partnum. As a result duplicate
Partition Descriptors are appended repeatedly and num_part_descs keeps
growing.

Once the table is full, the growth path still sizes the allocation from
partnum even though inserts are indexed by num_part_descs. If partnum is
already aligned to PART_DESC_ALLOC_STEP, ALIGN(partnum, step) can keep
the old capacity and the next append writes past the end of the table.

Store partnum in the appended slot and size growth from the next append
count so deduplication and capacity tracking follow the same model.

<title>treewide: change inode-&gt;i_ino from unsigned long to u64</title>

On 32-bit architectures, unsigned long is only 32 bits wide, which
causes 64-bit inode numbers to be silently truncated. Several
filesystems (NFS, XFS, BTRFS, etc.) can generate inode numbers that
exceed 32 bits, and this truncation can lead to inode number collisions
and other subtle bugs on 32-bit systems.

Change the type of inode-&gt;i_ino from unsigned long to u64 to ensure that
inode numbers are always represented as 64-bit values regardless of
architecture. Update all format specifiers treewide from %lu/%lx to
%llu/%llx to match the new type, along with corresponding local variable
types.

This is the bulk treewide conversion. Earlier patches in this series
handled trace events separately to allow trace field reordering for
better struct packing on 32-bit.
