Hey Baokun,

Good catch! I've added some minor comments below. Other than that feel

We can trigger a slab-out-of-bounds with the following commands:

     mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/$disk 10G
     mount /dev/$disk /tmp/test
     echo 2147483647 > /sys/fs/ext4/$disk/mb_group_prealloc
     echo test > /tmp/test/file && sync

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

The flow of issue triggering is as follows:

// Set s_mb_group_prealloc to 2147483647 via sysfs
ext4_mb_new_blocks
   ext4_mb_normalize_request
     ext4_mb_normalize_group_request
       ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len = EXT4_SB(sb)->s_mb_group_prealloc
   ext4_mb_regular_allocator
     ext4_mb_choose_next_group
       ext4_mb_choose_next_group_best_avail
         mb_avg_fragment_size_order
           order = fls(len) - 2 = 29
         ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists
           frag_list = &sbi->s_mb_avg_fragment_size[order]
           if (list_empty(frag_list)) // Trigger SOOB!

At 4k block size, the length of the s_mb_avg_fragment_size list is 14, but
an oversized s_mb_group_prealloc is set, causing slab-out-of-bounds to be
triggered by an attempt to access an element at index 29.

Therefore it is not allowed to set s_mb_group_prealloc to a value greater
than s_clusters_per_group via sysfs, and to avoid returning an order from
mb_avg_fragment_size_order() that is greater than MB_NUM_ORDERS(sb).

So along with this change, I think it'll also be good to add an extra
check in ext4_mb_choose_next_group_best_avail() as:

   if (1 << min_order < ac->ac_o_ex.fe_len)
     min_order = fls(ac->ac_o_ex.fe_len);
+ if (order >= MB_NUM_ORDERS(ac->ac_sb))
+   order = MB_NUM_ORDERS(ac->ac_sb) - 1;
+
   for (i = order; i >= min_order; i--) {
     int frag_order;
     /*


The reason for this is that otherwise when order is large eg 29,
we would unnecessarily loop from i=29 to i=13 while always
looking at the same avg_fragment_list[13].

Yeah, good point! This will cut down on some unnecessary loops.

I'll add this extra check in the next version.

Thanks for having a look!
