[PATCH 1/2] xfs: fix data corruption w/ unaligned dedupe ranges

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

 



From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>

A deduplication data corruption is Exposed by fstests generic/505 on
XFS. It is caused by extending the block match range to include the
partial EOF block, but then allowing unknown data beyond EOF to be
considered a "match" to data in the destination file because the
comparison is only made to the end of the source file. This corrupts
the destination file when the source extent is shared with it.

XFS only supports whole block dedupe, but we still need to appear to
support whole file dedupe correctly.  Hence if the dedupe request
includes the last block of the souce file, don't include it in the
actual XFS dedupe operation. If the rest of the range dedupes
successfully, then report the partial last block as deduped, too, so
that userspace sees it as a successful dedupe rather than return
EINVAL because we can't dedupe unaligned blocks.
