Hey Qianqiang,
Thanks for the patch. I'm still reviewing this codepath but I do have
some questions around the patch. So I understand that xattrs are
arranged in the following format:
* +------------------+
* | header |
* | entry 1 |
* | entry 2 |
* | entry 3 |
* | four null bytes | <--- last
* | . . . |
* | . . . | <--- here
* | . . . |
* | value 1 |
* | value 3 |
* | value 2 |
* +------------------+
Now, in this error, my understanding is that we are actually ending up
in a case where "here" ie the place where the new xattr entry will go is
beyond the "last" ie the last slot for xattr entry and that is causing
an underflow, something like the above diagram.
My only concern is that why were we not able to detect this in the logic
near the start of the function where we explcity check if we have enough
space?
Perhaps we should be fixing the logic in that if {..} instead
since the comment a few lines above your fix:
/* No failures allowed past this point. */
does suggest that we can't error out below that point, so ideally all
the checks would have been done before that.
I'm still going through the issue, will update here if needed.
