When process_sf_dir2() is trying to salvage entries in a corrupted short form directory, it may attempt to shorten the last entry in the dir if it extends beyond the directory size. However, if the name already starts past the dir size, no amount of name-shortening will make it fit, but the code doesn't realize this. The namelen variable comes out to be negative, and things go downhill from there, resulting in a segfault when we try to memmove a negative number of bytes. If no amount of name-shortening can make the last dir entry fit in the dir size, simply junk the entry. Reported by: Rui Gomes <rgomes@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx> --- This adds a bit more spaghetti to an existing pot, but I think it clearly fixes the problem; I might try to rework these cases to coalesce some of the code. (I also wonder about the tradeoff between shortening entries and increasing the dir size, but for now I'm just following the direction the repair code already takes). diff --git a/repair/dir2.c b/repair/dir2.c index 6b8964d..308808d 100644 --- a/repair/dir2.c +++ b/repair/dir2.c @@ -911,6 +911,20 @@ _("zero length entry in shortform dir %" PRIu64 ""), namelen = ino_dir_size - ((__psint_t) &sfep->name[0] - (__psint_t) sfp); + /* Entry name starts past size of dir; junk it */ + if (namelen <= 0) { + do_warn( +_("start of last entry name overflows space left in in shortform dir %" PRIu64 ", "), + ino); + if (!no_modify) + do_warn( + _("junking entry #%d\n"), i); + else + do_warn( + _("would junk entry #%d\n"), i); + break; + } + /* Ok, truncate this entry to end of dir */ do_warn( _("size of last entry overflows space left in in shortform dir %" PRIu64 ", "), ino); _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
