Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Block layer patches for kernel v5.8
Date: Fri, 15 May 2020 17:19:09 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200516001914.17138-1-bvanassche@acm.org> (raw)
Hi Jens,
The patches in this series are what I came up with as the result of
analyzing Alexander Potapenko's report about reading from null_blk.
Please consider these patches for kernel v5.8.
Thanks,
Bart.
Bart Van Assche (5):
block: Fix type of first compat_put_{,u}long() argument
bio.h: Declare the arguments of bio iteration functions const
block: Document the bio_vec properties
block: Fix zero_fill_bio()
null_blk: Zero-initialize read buffers in non-memory-backed mode
