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 Restructured Text 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.

Currently extent and index i are both being incremented causing an array
out of bounds read on extent[i]. Fix this by removing the extraneous
increment of extent.

: That's what it looks like in general. hfs_free_extents() won't do
: anything if the block count doesn't add up, and the error will be
: ignored. Now, if the block count randomly does add up, we could see
: some corruption.
