mkfs has a historical problem where it can format very small filesystems with too small of a physical log. Under certain conditions, log recovery of an associated filesystem can end up passing garbage parameter values to some of the cycle and log record verification functions due to bugs in log recovery not dealing with such filesystems properly. This results in attempts to read from bogus/underflowed log block addresses. Since the buffer read may ultimately succeed, log recovery can proceed with bogus data and otherwise go off the rails and crash. One example of this is a negative last_blk being passed to xlog_find_verify_log_record() causing us to skip the loop, pass a NULL head pointer to xlog_header_check_mount() and crash. Improve the xlog buffer verification to address this problem. We already verify xlog buffer length, so update this mechanism to also sanity check for a valid log relative block address and otherwise return an error. Pass a fixed, valid log block address from xlog_get_bp() since the target address will be validated when the buffer is read. This ensures that any bogus log block address/length calculations lead to graceful mount failure rather than risking a crash or worse if recovery proceeds with bogus data.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
