[PATCH 3.16 61/99] ext4: include terminating u32 in size of xattr entries when expanding inodes

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

 



3.16.65-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

commit a805622a757b6d7f65def4141d29317d8e37b8a1 upstream.

In ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea(), we calculate the total size of the
xattr header, plus the xattr entries so we know how much of the
beginning part of the xattrs to move when expanding the inode extra
size.  We need to include the terminating u32 at the end of the xattr
entries, or else if there is uninitialized, non-zero bytes after the
xattr entries and before the xattr values, the list of xattr entries
won't be properly terminated.
