Negative i_size is never supported, although crafted images with inodes having negative i_size will NOT lead to security issues in our current codebase: The following image can verify this (gzip+base64 encoded): H4sICCmk4mYAA3Rlc3QuaW1nAGNgGAWjYBSMVPDo4dcH3jP2aTED2TwMKgxMUHHNJY/SQDQX LxcDIw3tZwXit44MDNpQ/n8gQJZ/vxjijosPuSyZ0DUDgQqcZoKzVYFsDShbHeh6PT29ktTi Eqz2g/y2pBFiLxDMh4lhs5+W4TAKRsEoGAWjYBSMglEwCkYBPQAAS2DbowAQAAA= Mark as bad inodes for such corrupted inodes explicitly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
