Subject: nilfs2: fix general protection fault in nilfs_btree_insert()
Date: Thu, 5 Jan 2023 14:53:56 +0900

If nilfs2 reads a corrupted disk image and tries to reads a b-tree node
block by calling __nilfs_btree_get_block() against an invalid virtual
block address, it returns -ENOENT because conversion of the virtual block
address to a disk block address fails.  However, this return value is the
same as the internal code that b-tree lookup routines return to indicate
that the block being searched does not exist, so functions that operate on
that b-tree may misbehave.

When nilfs_btree_insert() receives this spurious 'not found' code from
nilfs_btree_do_lookup(), it misunderstands that the 'not found' check was
successful and continues the insert operation using incomplete lookup path
data, causing the following crash:

 general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address

This patch fixes the root cause of this problem by replacing the error
code that __nilfs_btree_get_block() returns on block address conversion
failure from -ENOENT to another internal code -EINVAL which means that the
b-tree metadata is corrupted.

By returning -EINVAL, it propagates without glitches, and for all relevant
b-tree operations, functions in the upper bmap layer output an error
message indicating corrupted b-tree metadata via
nilfs_bmap_convert_error(), and code -EIO will be eventually returned as
it should be.
