The patch titled Subject: lib/lzo: fix ambiguous encoding bug in lzo-rle has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was lib-lzo-fix-ambiguous-encoding-bug-in-lzo-rle.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Dave Rodgman <dave.rodgman@arm.com> Subject: lib/lzo: fix ambiguous encoding bug in lzo-rle In some rare cases, for input data over 32 KB, lzo-rle could encode two different inputs to the same compressed representation, so that decompression is then ambiguous (i.e. data may be corrupted - although zram is not affected because it operates over 4 KB pages). This modifies the compressor without changing the decompressor or the bitstream format, such that: - there is no change to how data produced by the old compressor is decompressed - an old decompressor will correctly decode data from the updated compressor - performance and compression ratio are not affected - we avoid introducing a new bitstream format In testing over 12.8M real-world files totalling 903 GB, three files were affected by this bug. I also constructed 37M semi-random 64 KB files totalling 2.27 TB, and saw no affected files. Finally I tested over files constructed to contain each of the ~1024 possible bad input sequences; for all of these cases, updated lzo-rle worked correctly. There is no significant impact to performance or compression ratio.
