In terms of upstream support for FALLOC_FL_NO_HIDE, it's not so much a security risk but a political issue. Fundamentally, the enterprise linux distributions don't trust their customers, and don't think...

This patch doesn't look complete; don't you need to link with libunwind? I've tried playing with it, and the build explodes because the link for e2fsck is missing -lunwind.

I was testing on Debian, and I found there that its libunwind package `installed the libunwind.h header file in a directory that is picked up by gcc and clang, but...

This web page [1] documents that you should use -lunwind. The clang web page you mentioned seems to have a clang-specific command-line option, "-unwindlib=". But that's only going to work...

I can't replicate what you are reporting at all. Do you have TZ set to something unusual/strange? Either in ~/.config/kvm-xfstests or in your environment, perhaps? Specifically, what is getting passed...

Ah.... I figured out what is happening. If you build a 32-bit kernel, then we will use a 32-bit root filesystem image for the OS. For example: ``` % install-kernel...

If you read the full report, they are assuming that a password is "crackable" assuming that it is hashed using MD5. MD5 is an ancient cryptographic checksum, which is widely...

This patch has significant portability problems. It appears to assume that certain header files like /usr/include/cpuid.h are always present. If you enable github actions, you'll see that your commit breaks...

fsstress.c is a test program which used for file system testing (in the kernel). It was added to e2fsck's contrib directory as a convenience for people who are building e2fsprogs...

I don't have any Windows development machines. We do run CI builds using Github Actions using MSYS2 using i386 and x86_64, but we're not trying to build lib/ss, since it's...
