Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-02-27 03:02:42 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ocfs2: handle a symlink read error correctly

Patch series "Convert ocfs2 to use folios".

Mark did a conversion of ocfs2 to use folios and sent it to me as a
giant patch for review ;-)

So I've redone it as individual patches, and credited Mark for the patches
where his code is substantially the same.  It's not a bad way to do it;
his patch had some bugs and my patches had some bugs.  Hopefully all our
bugs were different from each other.  And hopefully Mark likes all the
changes I made to his code!


This patch (of 23):
