fsioctl.c: make generic_block_fiemap() signal-tolerant
__generic_block_fiemap may spin very long time for large sparse files. Without this patch an unprivileged user may abuse system resources simply by spawning a vast number of unkilable busyloops (works on ext2/ext3): truncate --size 1T test for ((i=0;i<1024;i++)) do filefrag test > /dev/null & done Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Cc: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
