[PATCH] xfs: fix ASSERTION failure in xfs_vm_write_failed()

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

 



Hello,

Yesterday, Michael reported that ran xfstest-078 got kernel panic when growing a
small partition to a huge size(64-bit) on 32-bit system, this issue can be easily
reproduced on the latest upstream 38 to 39-rc2 if CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG is enabled.
According to my investigation, if the request pos offset exceeding 32-bit integer
range, evaluate block_offset with pos & PAGE_MASK will cause overflows so that
it most likely that the assert is not true.

This patch fix it by checking "block_offset + from == (pos & ~0UL)" instead.

Thanks,
-Jeff

XFSTEST-078 cause kernel panic on 32-bit system if CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG is enabled:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

On 32-bit system, if the request pos is 64-bit and evaluate block_offset
with (pos & PAGE_MASK) will result in overflows, therefore the assertion
will failed.  We have to check the write offset against (pos & ~0UL) to
avoid this issue as it can evaluate the highest 20 bits on 32-bit correctly
if the pos request is 64-bit and keep the expected result of 64-bit pos request
on 64-bit system unchanged.
