Linus Torvalds cdbb65c4c7 squashfs metadata 2: electric boogaloo
Anatoly continues to find issues with fuzzed squashfs images.

This time, corrupt, missing, or undersized data for the page filling
wasn't checked for, because the squashfs_{copy,read}_cache() functions
did the squashfs_copy_data() call without checking the resulting data
size.

Which could result in the page cache pages being incompletely filled in,
and no error indication to the user space reading garbage data.

So make a helper function for the "fill in pages" case, because the
exact same incomplete sequence existed in two places.

[ I should have made a squashfs branch for these things, but I didn't
  intend to start doing them in the first place.

  My historical connection through cramfs is why I got into looking at
  these issues at all, and every time I (continue to) think it's a
  one-off.

  Because _this_ time is always the last time. Right?   - Linus ]

README

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
