Subject: [PATCH 02/10] common/verity: set FSV_BLOCK_SIZE to an appropriate value
Date: Sat, 10 Dec 2022 23:06:55 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221211070704.341481-3-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221211070704.341481-1-ebiggers@kernel.org>

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

In order to maximize the chance that the verity tests can actually be
run, FSV_BLOCK_SIZE (the default Merkle tree size for the verity tests)
needs to be min(fs_block_size, page_size), not simply page_size.  The
only reason that page_size was okay before was because the kernel only
supported merkle_tree_block_size == fs_block_size == page_size anyway.
But that is changing.
