From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> [userspace port] xfs_mount_validate_sb doesn't check sb_inopblock for sanity (as does its xfs_repair counterpart, FWIW). If it's out of bounds, we can go off the rails in i.e. xfs_inode_buf_verify(), which uses sb_inopblock as a loop limit when stepping through a metadata buffer. The problem can be demonstrated easily by corrupting sb_inopblock with xfs_db and trying to mount the result: # mkfs.xfs -dfile,name=fsfile,size=1g # xfs_db -x fsfile xfs_db> sb 0 xfs_db> write inopblock 512 inopblock = 512 xfs_db> quit # mount -o loop fsfile mnt and we blow up in xfs_inode_buf_verify(). With this patch, we get a (very noisy) corruption error, and fail the mount as we should.
