[PATCH 2/2] ext4: remove a BUG_ON in ext4_mb_release_group_pa()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If a malicious fuzzer overwrites the ext4 superblock while it is
mounted such that the s_first_data_block is set to a very large
number, the calculation of the block group can underflow, and trigger
a BUG_ON check.  Change this to be an ext4_warning so that we don't
crash the kernel.
