Darrick J. Wong 46c59736d8 xfs: harden directory integrity checks some more
If a malicious filesystem image contains a block+ format directory
wherein the directory inode's core.mode is set such that
S_ISDIR(core.mode) == 0, and if there are subdirectories of the
corrupted directory, an attempt to traverse up the directory tree will
crash the kernel in __xfs_dir3_data_check.  Running the online scrub's
parent checks will tend to do this.

The crash occurs because the directory inode's d_ops get set to
xfs_dir[23]_nondir_ops (it's not a directory) but the parent pointer
scrubber's indiscriminate call to xfs_readdir proceeds past the ASSERT
if we have non fatal asserts configured.

Fix the null pointer dereference crash in __xfs_dir3_data_check by
looking for S_ISDIR or wrong d_ops; and teach the parent scrubber
to bail out if it is fed a non-directory "parent".

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.
