In the JFS filesystem, right?

<snip>

 fs/jfs/jfs_debug.c  | 2 ++

        $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl fs/jfs/jfs_debug.c
        Dave Kleikamp <shaggy () kernel org> (odd fixer:JFS FILESYSTEM)
        jfs-discussion () lists sourceforge net (open list:JFS FILESYSTEM)
        linux-kernel () vger kernel org (open list)

Any specific reason you didn't send this to the mailing list and
developers who can review and apply this potential fix to the kernel
tree?

syzbot-reported issues are not really a new or exciting thing, we get
loads of them every week (see the syzbot mailing list and summaries).
What is good is for fixes like this one to be sent to us so that we can
merge them for all to use.

That is if anyone is actually using the JFS filesystem anymore, it is
pretty obsolete.  Are you using it?


Hi Greg,

Sorry for our mistake. My friend is not familiar with the rules. We
should send it to OSS-security after the bug is fixed. The patch now
is sent to the open mailing list. Sorry again for the unintentional
mistake.

Best regards,
Zheng


thanks,
