[PATCH V2] xfs: fix off-by-one-block in xfs_discard_folio()

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

 



From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>

The recent writeback corruption fixes changed the code in
xfs_discard_folio() to calculate a byte range to for punching
delalloc extents. A mistake was made in using round_up(pos) for the
end offset, because when pos points at the first byte of a block, it
does not get rounded up to point to the end byte of the block. hence
the punch range is short, and this leads to unexpected behaviour in
certain cases in xfs_bmap_punch_delalloc_range.

e.g. pos = 0 means we call xfs_bmap_punch_delalloc_range(0,0), so
there is no previous extent and it rounds up the punch to the end of
the delalloc extent it found at offset 0, not the end of the range
given to xfs_bmap_punch_delalloc_range().

Fix this by handling the zero block offset case correctly.

Version 2
- update xfs_discard_folio() comment to reflect reality
- simplify the end offset calculation and comment to reflect the
  fact the punch range always ends at the end of the supplied folio
  regardless of the position we start the punch from.
