Could you please detail a scenario that leads to this check being invalid? As I'm to blame for the faulty BUG_ON I'd like to use this as an opportunity to get properly edified. > Signed-off-by: Yongqiang Yang <xiaoqiangnk@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > fs/ext4/extents.c | 1 - > 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/fs/ext4/extents.c b/fs/ext4/extents.c > index 6f0300e..29bb629 100644 > --- a/fs/ext4/extents.c > +++ b/fs/ext4/extents.c > @@ -2943,7 +2943,6 @@ static int ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized(handle_t *handle, > /* Pre-conditions */ > BUG_ON(!ext4_ext_is_uninitialized(ex)); > BUG_ON(!in_range(map->m_lblk, ee_block, ee_len)); > - BUG_ON(map->m_lblk + map->m_len > ee_block + ee_len); For a bit I thought this would break the fast path logic, however it gets protected by the checks marked /*L1*/ and /*L2*/ since m_lblk == ee_block (L1) and m_len < ee_len (L2).
