+Subject: e2fsprogs: fix cross compilation problem
+
+The checking of types in parse-types.sh doesn't make much sense in a
+cross-compilation environment, because the generated binary is executed
+on build machine.
+
+So even if asm_types.h has got correct statements for types, it's possible
+that the generated binary will report an error. Because these types are for
+the target machine.

+Subject: [PATCH] libext2fs: fix potential buffer overflow in closefs()
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport
+
+The bug fix in f66e6ce4446: "libext2fs: avoid buffer overflow if
+s_first_meta_bg is too big" had a typo in the fix for
+ext2fs_closefs().  In practice most of the security exposure was from
+the openfs path, since this meant if there was a carefully crafted
+file system, buffer overrun would be triggered when the file system was
+opened.
+
+However, if corrupted file system didn't trip over some corruption
+check, and then the file system was modified via tune2fs or debugfs,
+such that the superblock was marked dirty and then written out via the
+closefs() path, it's possible that the buffer overrun could be
+triggered when the file system is closed.
+
+Also clear up a signed vs unsigned warning while we're at it.
+
+Thanks to Nick Kralevich <nnk@google.com> for asking me to look at
+compiler warning in the code in question, which led me to notice the
+bug in f66e6ce4446.

+Subject: [PATCH 01/11] mke2fs: add the ability to copy files from a given
+ directory
+
+We will add a -d option which will be used for adding the files from a
+given directory to the filesystem, it is similiar to genext2fs, but
+genext2fs doesn't fully support ext4.
+
+* We already have the basic operations in debugfs:
+  - Copy regular file
+  - Create directory
+  - Create symlink
+  - Create special file
+
+  We will move these operations into create_inode.h and create_inode.c,
+  then let both mke2fs and debugfs use them.
+
+* What we need to do are:
+  - Copy the given directory recursively, this will be done by the
+    populate_fs()
+  - Set the owner, mode and other informations
+  - Handle the hard links
+
+TODO:
+  - The libext2fs can't create the socket file (S_IFSOCK), do we have a
+    plan to support it ?

+Subject: [PATCH 09/11] misc/create_inode.c: handle hardlinks
+
+Create the inode and save the native inode number when we meet the hard
+link (st_nlink > 1) at the first time, use ext2fs_link() to link the
+name to the target inode number when we meet the same native inode
+number again.
+
+This algorithm is referred from the genext2fs.

+Subject: [PATCH 10/11] debugfs: use the functions in misc/create_inode.c
+
+* Use the functions in misc/create_inode.c, and remove the duplicated
+  code.
+
+* The CREATE_INODE_DEPS in the debugfs/Makefile.in is used for recording
+  create_inode.o's depends which is from misc/Makefile.in, we have to
+  recompile create_inode.o because we need it to print more messages when
+  it is used by debugfs, just like we recompile e2freefrag.o, but it seems
+  that the e2freefrag.o's depends in debugfs/Makefile.in is incorrect, it
+  would not rebuild when its depends (e.g.: lib/config.h) is changed,
+  which would cause unexpected errors. Make duplicated code in
+  debugfs/Makefile.in and misc/Makefile.in is not a good idea, maybe we'd
+  better define CREATE_INODE_DEPS in the top Makefile, I'd like to send
+  another patch and fix the e2freefrag if you are fine with it.

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix musl build failures
+
+In lib/ext2fs/unix_io.c, __u64 should be used instead of __uint64_t. This type
+is guaranteed by the e2fsprogs build system.
+(795c02def3681a99cc792a5ebc162d06f8a1eeb7)
+
+In misc/create_inode.c, <limits.h> is needed for the definition of PATH_MAX.
+(bbccc6f3c6a106721fb6f1ef4df6bc32c7986235)
+
+Both of these fixes have been made upstream with the git commit IDs given but
+those are larger commits containing other changes not needed here.

+Subject: libext2fs: avoid buffer overflow if s_first_meta_bg is too big
+
+If s_first_meta_bg is greater than the of number block group
+descriptor blocks, then reading or writing the block group descriptors
+will end up overruning the memory buffer allocated for the
+descriptors.  Fix this by limiting first_meta_bg to no more than
+fs->desc_blocks.  This doesn't correct the bad s_first_meta_bg value,
+but it avoids causing the e2fsprogs userspace programs from
+potentially crashing.

+#
+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   CHECK_GNU_MAKE()
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   This macro searches for a GNU version of make. If a match is found, the
+#   makefile variable `ifGNUmake' is set to the empty string, otherwise it
+#   is set to "#". This is useful for including a special features in a
+#   Makefile, which cannot be handled by other versions of make. The
+#   variable _cv_gnu_make_command is set to the command to invoke GNU make
+#   if it exists, the empty string otherwise.
+#
+#   Here is an example of its use:
+#
+#   Makefile.in might contain:
+#
+#       # A failsafe way of putting a dependency rule into a makefile
+#       $(DEPEND):
+#               $(CC) -MM $(srcdir)/*.c > $(DEPEND)
+#
+#       @ifGNUmake@ ifeq ($(DEPEND),$(wildcard $(DEPEND)))
+#       @ifGNUmake@ include $(DEPEND)
+#       @ifGNUmake@ endif
+#
+#   Then configure.in would normally contain:
+#
+#       CHECK_GNU_MAKE()
+#       AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)
+#
+#   Then perhaps to cause gnu make to override any other make, we could do
+#   something like this (note that GNU make always looks for GNUmakefile
+#   first):
+#
+#       if  ! test x$_cv_gnu_make_command = x ; then
+#               mv Makefile GNUmakefile
+#               echo .DEFAULT: > Makefile ;
+#               echo \  $_cv_gnu_make_command \$@ >> Makefile;
+#       fi
+#
+#   Then, if any (well almost any) other make is called, and GNU make also
+#   exists, then the other make wraps the GNU make.

+This adds in a rather hacky algorthim which starts where we finished
+searching previously using a static variable rather than starting 
+from scratch if a hint isn't provided.
+
+This was after noticing that mkfs.ext4 -F X -d Y was spending *lots*
+of time in ext2fs_new_block2 called from ext2fs_bmap from ext2fs_file_write().
+
+Numbers wise, this took a core-image-sato-sdk mkfs time from over 
+8 minutes to around 35 seconds.

+inode.c: only update the icache for ext2_inode
+
+We only read the cache when:
+
+bufsize == sizeof(struct ext2_inode)
+
+then we should only update the cache in the same condition, otherwise
+there would be errors, for example:
+
+cache[0]: cached ino 14 when bufsize = 128 by ext2fs_write_inode_full()
+cache[1]: cached ino 14 when bufsize = 156 by ext2fs_read_inode_full()
+
+Then update the cache:
+cache[0]: cached ino 15 when bufsize = 156 by ext2fs_read_inode_full()
+
+Then the ino 14 would hit the cache[1] when bufsize = 128 (but it was
+cached by bufsize = 156), so there would be errors.
