But I'm ok with dropping this patch to have full folio verify function.

Well, there is no point in a wrapper if it has the exact same signature and functionality as the functionality being wrapped. That being said, right now fsverity_verify_folio, so it might make sense to either rename it, or rename fsverity_verify_blocks to fsverity_verify_folio. But that's really a question for Eric.

But that's really a question for Eric. I thought it would be confusing for fsverity_verify_folio() to not actually verify a whole folio. So, for now we have: fsverity_verify_page: verify a whole page fsverity_verify_folio: verify a whole folio fsverity_verify_blocks: verify a range of blocks in a folio IMO that makes sense. Note: fsverity_verify_folio() is currently unused, but ext4 might use it. So, just use fsverity_verify_blocks(). - Eric

Not the whole folio always need to be verified by fs-verity (e.g. with 1k blocks). Use passed folio's offset and size. Signed-off-by: Andrey Albershteyn <aalbersh@redhat.com> --- include/linux/fsverity.h | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
