Patch series "Squashfs: handle missing pages decompressing into page
cache".
This patchset enables Squashfs to handle missing pages when directly
decompressing datablocks into the page cache.
Previously if the full set of pages needed was not available, Squashfs
would have to fall back to using an intermediate buffer (the older
method), which is slower, involving a memcopy, and it introduces
contention on a shared buffer.
The first patch extends the "page actor" code to handle missing pages.
The second patch updates Squashfs_readpage_block() to use the new
functionality, and removes the code that falls back to using an
intermediate buffer.
This patchset is independent of the readahead work, and it is standalone.
It can be merged on its own.
But the readahead patch for efficiency also needs this patch-set.
This patch (of 2):
This patch extends the "page actor" code to handle missing pages.
Previously if the full set of pages needed to decompress a Squashfs
datablock was unavailable, this would cause decompression to fail on the
missing pages.
In this case direct decompression into the page cache could not be
achieved and the code would fall back to using the older intermediate
buffer method.
With this patch, direct decompression into the page cache can be achieved
with missing pages.
For "multi-shot" decompressors (zlib, xz, zstd), the page actor will
allocate a temporary buffer which is passed to the decompressor, and then
freed by the page actor.
For "single shot" decompressors (lz4, lzo) which decompress into a
contiguous "bounce buffer", and which is then copied into the page cache,
it would be pointless to allocate a temporary buffer, memcpy into it, and
then free it. For these decompressors -ENOMEM is returned, which
signifies that the memcpy for that page should be skipped.
This also happens if the data block is uncompressed.

This is a "weak" conversion which converts straight back to using pages.
A full conversion should be performed at some point, hopefully by
someone familiar with the filesystem.

Pass the block_device and operation that we plan to use this bio for to
bio_alloc to optimize the assignment. NULL/0 can be passed, both for the
passthrough case on a raw request_queue and to temporarily avoid
refactoring some nasty code.
Also move the gfp_mask argument after the nr_vecs argument for a much
more logical calling convention matching what most of the kernel does.

Commit c1f6925e10 ("mm: put readahead pages in cache earlier") causes
the read performance of squashfs to deteriorate.Through testing, we find
that the performance will be back by closing the readahead of squashfs.
So we want to learn the way of ubifs, provides backing_dev_info and
disable read-ahead
We tested the following data by fio.

This patch:
- Moves `include/linux/zstd.h` -> `include/linux/zstd_lib.h`
- Updates modified zstd headers to yearless copyright
- Adds a new API in `include/linux/zstd.h` that is functionally
equivalent to the in-use subset of the current API. Functions are
renamed to avoid symbol collisions with zstd, to make it clear it is
not the upstream zstd API, and to follow the kernel style guide.
- Updates all callers to use the new API.
There are no functional changes in this patch. Since there are no
functional change, I felt it was okay to update all the callers in a
single patch. Once the API is approved, the callers are mechanically
changed.
This patch is preparing for the 3rd patch in this series, which updates
zstd to version 1.4.10. Since the upstream zstd API is no longer exposed
to callers, the update can happen transparently.

Sysbot has reported a "divide error" which has been identified as being
caused by a corrupted file_size value within the file inode. This value
has been corrupted to a much larger value than expected.
Calculate_skip() is passed i_size_read(inode) >> msblk->block_log. Due to
the file_size value corruption this overflows the int argument/variable in
that function, leading to the divide error.
This patch changes the function to use u64. This will accommodate any
unexpectedly large values due to corruption.
The value returned from calculate_skip() is clamped to be never more than
SQUASHFS_CACHED_BLKS - 1, or 7. So file_size corruption does not lead to
an unexpectedly large return result here.

Sysbot has reported a warning where a kmalloc() attempt exceeds the
maximum limit. This has been identified as corruption of the xattr_ids
count when reading the xattr id lookup table.
This patch adds a number of additional sanity checks to detect this
corruption and others.
1. It checks for a corrupted xattr index read from the inode. This could
be because the metadata block is uncompressed, or because the
"compression" bit has been corrupted (turning a compressed block
into an uncompressed block). This would cause an out of bounds read.
2. It checks against corruption of the xattr_ids count. This can either
lead to the above kmalloc failure, or a smaller than expected
table to be read.
3. It checks the contents of the index table for corruption.

Sysbot has reported an "slab-out-of-bounds read" error which has been
identified as being caused by a corrupted "ino_num" value read from the
inode. This could be because the metadata block is uncompressed, or
because the "compression" bit has been corrupted (turning a compressed
block into an uncompressed block).
This patch adds additional sanity checks to detect this, and the
following corruption.
1. It checks against corruption of the inodes count. This can either
lead to a larger table to be read, or a smaller than expected
table to be read.
In the case of a too large inodes count, this would often have been
trapped by the existing sanity checks, but this patch introduces
a more exact check, which can identify too small values.
2. It checks the contents of the index table for corruption.

Patch series "Squashfs: fix BIO migration regression and add sanity checks".
Patch [1/4] fixes a regression introduced by the "migrate from
ll_rw_block usage to BIO" patch, which has produced a number of
Sysbot/Syzkaller reports.
Patches [2/4], [3/4], and [4/4] fix a number of filesystem corruption
issues which have produced Sysbot reports in the id, inode and xattr
lookup code.
Each patch has been tested against the Sysbot reproducers using the
given kernel configuration. They have the appropriate "Reported-by:"
lines added.
Additionally, all of the reproducer filesystems are indirectly fixed by
patch [4/4] due to the fact they all have xattr corruption which is now
detected there.
Additional testing with other configurations and architectures (32bit,
big endian), and normal filesystems has also been done to trap any
inadvertent regressions caused by the additional sanity checks.
This patch (of 4):
This is a regression introduced by the patch "migrate from ll_rw_block
usage to BIO".
Sysbot/Syskaller has reported a number of "out of bounds writes" and
"unable to handle kernel paging request in squashfs_decompress" errors
which have been identified as a regression introduced by the above
patch.
Specifically, the patch removed the following sanity check
if (length < 0 || length > output->length ||
(index + length) > msblk->bytes_used)
This check did two things:
1. It ensured any reads were not beyond the end of the filesystem
2. It ensured that the "length" field read from the filesystem
was within the expected maximum length. Without this any
corrupted values can over-run allocated buffers.
