In all cases the problem is that the value being acted upon by
a left-shift is a 32-bit number which is then being used in the
context of a 64-bit number.
To avoid overflow we ensure that the number being shifted is 64-bit
before the shift is done.

There are several exit points in dnode_get_path() that are causing possible
memory leaks.
In the while(1) the correct exit mechanism should not be to do a direct return,
but to instead break out of the loop, setting err first if it is not already set.
The reason behind this is that the dnode_path is a linked list, and while doing
through this loop, it is being allocated and built up - the only way to
correctly unravel it is to traverse it, which is what is being done at the end
of the function outside of the loop.
Several of the existing exit points correctly did a break, but not all so this
change makes that more consistent and should resolve the leaking of memory as
found by Coverity.

While it is possible for the return value from zfs_log2() to be zero
(0), it is quite unlikely, given that the previous assignment to blksz
is shifted up by SPA_MINBLOCKSHIFT (9) before 9 is subtracted at the
assignment to epbs.
But, while unlikely during a normal operation, it may be that a carefully
crafted ZFS filesystem could result in a zero (0) value to the
dn_datalbkszsec field, which means that the shift left does nothing
and assigns zero (0) to blksz, resulting in a negative epbs value.

When the GRUB starts on a secure boot platform, some commands can be
used to subvert the protections provided by the verification mechanism and
could lead to booting untrusted system.
To prevent that situation, allow GRUB to be locked down. That way the code
may check if GRUB has been locked down and further restrict the commands
that are registered or what subset of their functionality could be used.
The lockdown support adds the following components:
* The grub_lockdown() function which can be used to lockdown GRUB if,
e.g., UEFI Secure Boot is enabled.
* The grub_is_lockdown() function which can be used to check if the GRUB
was locked down.
* A verifier that flags OS kernels, the GRUB modules, Device Trees and ACPI
tables as GRUB_VERIFY_FLAGS_DEFER_AUTH to defer verification to other
verifiers. These files are only successfully verified if another registered
verifier returns success. Otherwise, the whole verification process fails.
For example, PE/COFF binaries verification can be done by the shim_lock
verifier which validates the signatures using the shim_lock protocol.
However, the verification is not deferred directly to the shim_lock verifier.
The shim_lock verifier is hooked into the verification process instead.
* A set of grub_{command,extcmd}_lockdown functions that can be used by
code registering command handlers, to only register unsafe commands if
the GRUB has not been locked down.

Here I'd like to quote from the gcc document [1] which seems best to
explain what is going on here.
"Although the size of a zero-length array is zero, an array member of
this kind may increase the size of the enclosing type as a result of
tail padding. The offset of a zero-length array member from the
beginning of the enclosing structure is the same as the offset of an
array with one or more elements of the same type. The alignment of a
zero-length array is the same as the alignment of its elements.
Declaring zero-length arrays in other contexts, including as interior
members of structure objects or as non-member objects, is discouraged.
Accessing elements of zero-length arrays declared in such contexts is
undefined and may be diagnosed."
The l_hash[0] is apparnetly an interior member to the enclosed structure
while l_entries[0] is the trailing member. And the offending code tries
to access members in l_hash[0] array that triggers the diagnose.
Given that the l_entries[0] is used to get proper alignment to access
leaf chunks, we can accomplish the same thing through the ALIGN_UP macro
thus eliminating l_entries[0] from the structure. In this way we can
pacify the warning as l_hash[0] now becomes the last member to the
enclosed structure.

Commit 781b3e5efc (tftp: Do not use priority queue) caused a regression

It is caused by the block number counter being a 16-bit field, which leads
to a maximum file size of ((1 << 16) - 1) * block size. Because GRUB sets
the block size to 1024 octets (by using the TFTP Blocksize Option from RFC
2348 [0]), the maximum file size that can be transferred is 67107840 bytes.
The TFTP PROTOCOL (REVISION 2) RFC 1350 [1] does not mention what a client
should do when a file size is bigger than the maximum, but most TFTP hosts
support the block number counter to be rolled over. That is, acking a data
packet with a block number of 0 is taken as if the 65356th block was acked.
It was working before because the block counter roll-over was happening due
an overflow. But that got fixed by the mentioned commit, which led to the
regression when attempting to fetch files larger than the maximum size.
To allow TFTP file transfers of unlimited size again, re-introduce a block
counter roll-over so the data packets are acked preventing the timeouts.

of just irrevocably removing them as the first action. If available,
register atexit() handler to restore the backup if errors occur before
point of no return, or remove the backup if everything was successful.
If atexit() is not available, the backup remains on disk for manual
recovery.
Some platforms defined a point of no return, i.e. after modules & core
images were updated. Failures from any commands after that stage are
ignored, and backup is cleaned up. For example, on EFI platforms update
is not reverted when efibootmgr fails.
Extra care is taken to ensure atexit() handler is only invoked by the
parent process and not any children forks. Some older GRUB codebases
can invoke parent atexit() hooks from forks, which can mess up the
backup.
This allows safer upgrades of MBR & modules, such that
modules/images/fonts/translations are consistent with MBR in case of
errors. For example accidental grub-install /dev/non-existent-disk
currently clobbers and upgrades modules in /boot/grub, despite not
actually updating any MBR.
This patch only handles backup and restore of files copied to /boot/grub.
This patch does not perform backup (or restoration) of MBR itself or
blocklists. Thus when installing i386-pc platform, corruption may still
occur with MBR and blocklists which will not be attempted to be
automatically recovered.
Also add modinfo.sh and *.efi to the cleanup/backup/restore code path,
to ensure it is also cleaned, backed up and restored.

Patch-Name: grub-install-backup-and-restore.patch
The functions grub_util_exec_pipe() and grub_util_exec_pipe_stderr()
currently call execvp(). If the call fails for any reason, the child
currently calls exit(127). This in turn executes the parents
atexit() handlers from the forked child, and then the same handlers
are called again from parent. This is usually not desired, and can
lead to deadlocks, and undesired behavior. So, change the exit() calls
to _exit() calls to avoid calling atexit() handlers from child.
Fixes: e75cf4a58 (unix exec: avoid atexit handlers when child exits)

Refactor clean_grub_dir() to create a backup of all the files, instead

This fixes cross-compiling to x86 (e.g., the Hurd) from x86-linux of
grub-core/lib/i386/relocator64.S
This file has six sections that only build with a 64-bit assembler,
yet only the first two sections had support for a 32-bit assembler.
This patch completes this for the remaining sections.
To reproduce, update the GRUB source description in your local Guix
archive and run
./pre-inst-env guix build --system=i686-linux --target=i586-pc-gnu grub
or install an x86 cross-build environment on x86-linux (32-bit!) and
configure to cross build and make, e.g., do something like
./configure \
CC_FOR_BUILD=gcc \
--build=i686-unknown-linux-gnu \
--host=i586-pc-gnu
make
Additionally, remove a line with redundant spaces.
