The top of function comment about hfs_inode_setattr is severely out

and update the comments in the file to record the still relevant bits
directly.

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

<id>urn:sha1:0b2600f81cefcdfcda58d50df7be8fd48ada8ce2</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<title>hfs: Replace BUG_ON with error handling for CNID count checks</title>

<content type='text'>
In a06ec283e125 next_id, folder_count, and file_count in the super block
info were expanded to 64 bits, and BUG_ONs were added to detect
overflow. This triggered an error reported by syzbot: if the MDB is
corrupted, the BUG_ON is triggered. This patch replaces this mechanism
with proper error handling and resolves the syzbot reported bug.

<title>hfs: ensure sb-&gt;s_fs_info is always cleaned up</title>

When hfs was converted to the new mount api a bug was introduced by
changing the allocation pattern of sb-&gt;s_fs_info. If setup_bdev_super()
fails after a new superblock has been allocated by sget_fc(), but before
hfs_fill_super() takes ownership of the filesystem-specific s_fs_info
data it was leaked.

Fix this by freeing sb-&gt;s_fs_info in hfs_kill_super().

Pull hfs/hfsplus updates from Viacheslav Dubeyko:
 "Several fixes for syzbot reported issues, HFS/HFS+ fixes of xfstests
  failures, Kunit-based unit-tests introduction, and code cleanup:

   - Dan Carpenter fixed a potential use-after-free issue in
     hfs_correct_next_unused_CNID() method. Tetsuo Handa has made nice
     fix of syzbot reported issue related to incorrect inode-&gt;i_mode
     management if volume has been corrupted somehow. Yang Chenzhi has
     made really good fix of potential race condition in
     __hfs_bnode_create() method for HFS+ file system.

   - Several fixes to xfstests failures. Particularly, generic/070,
     generic/073, and generic/101 test-cases finish successfully for the
     case of HFS+ file system right now.

   - HFS and HFS+ drivers share multiple structures of on-disk layout
     declarations. Some structures are used without any change. However,
     we had two independent declarations of the same structures in HFS
     and HFS+ drivers.

     The on-disk layout declarations have been moved into
     include/linux/hfs_common.h with the goal to exclude the
     declarations duplication and to keep the HFS/HFS+ on-disk layout
     declarations in one place.

     Also, this patch prepares the basis for creating a hfslib that can
     aggregate common functionality without necessity to duplicate the
     same code in HFS and HFS+ drivers.

   - HFS/HFS+ really need unit-tests because of multiple xfstests
     failures. The first two patches introduce Kunit-based unit-tests
     for the case string operations in HFS/HFS+ file system drivers"

<id>urn:sha1:ec95cd103c3a1e2567927014e4a710416cde3e52</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, HFS declares on-disk layout's metadata structures
in fs/hfs/hfs.h and HFS+ declares it in fs/hfsplus/hfsplus_raw.h.
However, HFS and HFS+ on-disk layouts have some similarity and
overlapping in declarations. As a result, fs/hfs/hfs.h and
fs/hfsplus/hfsplus_raw.h contain multiple duplicated declarations.
Moreover, both HFS and HFS+ drivers contain completely similar
implemented functionality in multiple places.

This patch is moving the on-disk layout declarations from
fs/hfs/hfs.h and fs/hfsplus/hfsplus_raw.h into
include/linux/hfs_common.h with the goal to exclude
the duplication in declarations. Also, this patch prepares
the basis for creating a hfslib that can aggregate common
functionality without necessity to duplicate the same code
in HFS and HFS+ drivers.

This patch implements the initial Kunit based set of
unit tests for HFS string operations. It checks
functionality of hfs_strcmp(), hfs_hash_dentry(),
and hfs_compare_dentry() methods.
