[PATCH 5.8 017/148] squashfs: avoid bio_alloc() failure with 1Mbyte blocks

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

 



From: Phillip Lougher <phillip@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f26044c83e6e473a61917f5db411d1417327d425 upstream.

This is a regression introduced by the patch "migrate from ll_rw_block
usage to BIO".

Bio_alloc() is limited to 256 pages (1 Mbyte).  This can cause a failure
when reading 1 Mbyte block filesystems.  The problem is a datablock can be
fully (or almost uncompressed), requiring 256 pages, but, because blocks
are not aligned to page boundaries, it may require 257 pages to read.

Bio_kmalloc() can handle 1024 pages, and so use this for the edge
condition.

Fixes: 93e72b3c612a ("squashfs: migrate from ll_rw_block usage to BIO")
