[PATCH 2/7] xfs: fix memory corruption during remote attr value buffer invalidation

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

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx>

While running generic/103, I observed what looks like memory corruption
and (with slub debugging turned on) a slub redzone warning on i386 when
inactivating an inode with a 64k remote attr value.

On a v5 filesystem, maximally sized remote attr values require one block
more than 64k worth of space to hold both the remote attribute value
header (64 bytes).  On a 4k block filesystem this results in a 68k
buffer; on a 64k block filesystem, this would be a 128k buffer.  Note
that even though we'll never use more than 65,600 bytes of this buffer,
XFS_MAX_BLOCKSIZE is 64k.

This is a problem because the definition of struct xfs_buf_log_format
allows for XFS_MAX_BLOCKSIZE worth of dirty bitmap (64k).  On i386 when we
invalidate a remote attribute, xfs_trans_binval zeroes all 68k worth of
the dirty map, writing right off the end of the log item and corrupting
memory.  We've gotten away with this on x86_64 for years because the
compiler inserts a u32 padding on the end of struct xfs_buf_log_format.

Fortunately for us, remote attribute values are written to disk with
xfs_bwrite(), which is to say that they are not logged.  Fix the problem
by removing all places where we could end up creating a buffer log item
for a remote attribute value and leave a note explaining why.  Next,
replace the open-coded buffer invalidation with a call to the helper we
created in the previous patch that does better checking for bad metadata
before marking the buffer stale.

+ * Remote Attribute Values
+ * =======================
+ *
+ * Remote extended attribute values are conceptually simple -- they're written
+ * to data blocks mapped by an inode's attribute fork, and they have an upper
+ * size limit of 64k.  Setting a value does not involve the XFS log.
+ *
+ * However, on a v5 filesystem, maximally sized remote attr values require one
+ * block more than 64k worth of space to hold both the remote attribute value
+ * header (64 bytes).  On a 4k block filesystem this results in a 68k buffer;
+ * on a 64k block filesystem, this would be a 128k buffer.  Note that the log
+ * format can only handle a dirty buffer of XFS_MAX_BLOCKSIZE length (64k).
+ * Therefore, we /must/ ensure that remote attribute value buffers never touch
+ * the logging system and therefore never have a log item.
