ext4: prevent the normalized size from exceeding EXT_MAX_BLOCKS
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 2dcf5fd upstream.

For files with logical blocks close to EXT_MAX_BLOCKS, the file size
predicted in ext4_mb_normalize_request() may exceed EXT_MAX_BLOCKS.
This can cause some blocks to be preallocated that will not be used.
And after [Fixes], the following issue may be triggered:

 kernel BUG at fs/ext4/mballoc.c:4653!

=========================================================

Here is a calculation when adjusting ac_b_ex in ext4_mb_new_inode_pa():

	ex.fe_logical = orig_goal_end - EXT4_C2B(sbi, ex.fe_len);
	if (ac->ac_o_ex.fe_logical >= ex.fe_logical)
		goto adjust_bex;

The problem is that when orig_goal_end is subtracted from ac_b_ex.fe_len
it is still greater than EXT_MAX_BLOCKS, which causes ex.fe_logical to
overflow to a very small value, which ultimately triggers a BUG_ON in
ext4_mb_new_inode_pa() because pa->pa_free < len.

The last logical block of an actual write request does not exceed
EXT_MAX_BLOCKS, so in ext4_mb_normalize_request() also avoids normalizing
the last logical block to exceed EXT_MAX_BLOCKS to avoid the above issue.

The test case in [Link] can reproduce the above issue with 64k block size.
