2023-06-20block: change all __u32 annotations to __be32 in affs_hardblocks.hMichael Schmitz
The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB. Use u64 as type for sector address and size to allow using disks up to 2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD. The RBD format allows to specify disk sizes up to 2^128 bytes (though native OS limitations reduce this somewhat, to max 2^68 bytes), so check for u64 overflow carefully to protect against overflowing sector_t. This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by the RDB author, Joanne Dow <jdow@earthlink.net>. A patch had been discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially submitted (now resubmitted as patch 1 of this series). Patch 3 (this series) adds additional error checking and warning messages. One of the error checks now makes use of the previously unused rdb_CylBlocks field, which causes a 'sparse' warning (cast to restricted __be32). Annotate all 32 bit fields in affs_hardblocks.h as __be32, as the on-disk format of RDB and partition blocks is always big endian.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no ↵Greg Kroah-Hartman
license Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default are files without license information under the default license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception which is in the kernels COPYING file: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". otherwise syscall usage would not be possible. Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.
