This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ext4: forbid commit inconsistent quota data when errors=remount-ro to the 6.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ext4-forbid-commit-inconsistent-quota-data-when-erro.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 671376cc826fe7d12bc92e1d7d96671c0dbbf985 Author: Ye Bin <yebin10@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jan 19 14:29:08 2024 +0800 ext4: forbid commit inconsistent quota data when errors=remount-ro [ Upstream commit d8b945fa475f13d787df00c26a6dc45a3e2e1d1d ] There's issue as follows When do IO fault injection test: Quota error (device dm-3): find_block_dqentry: Quota for id 101 referenced but not present Quota error (device dm-3): qtree_read_dquot: Can't read quota structure for id 101 Quota error (device dm-3): do_check_range: Getting block 2021161007 out of range 1-186 Quota error (device dm-3): qtree_read_dquot: Can't read quota structure for id 661 Now, ext4_write_dquot()/ext4_acquire_dquot()/ext4_release_dquot() may commit inconsistent quota data even if process failed. This may lead to filesystem corruption. To ensure filesystem consistent when errors=remount-ro there is need to call ext4_handle_error() to abort journal.
