[PATCH] ext4: fail ext4_iget for root directory if unallocated

by Theodore Ts'o

If the root directory has an i_links_count of zero, then when the file system is mounted, then when ext4_fill_super() notices the problem and tries to call iput() the root directory in the error return path, ext4_evict_inode() will try to free the inode on disk, before all of the file system structures are set up, and this will result in an OOPS caused by a NULL pointer dereference. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199179 Reported-by: Wen Xu <wen.xu(a)gatech.edu> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso(a)mit.edu> Cc: stable(a)vger.kernel.org --- fs/ext4/inode.c | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/fs/ext4/inode.c b/fs/ext4/inode.c index 951a3d69ed17..5adfd0980c71 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/inode.c +++ b/fs/ext4/inode.c @@ -4745,6 +4745,12 @@ struct inode *ext4_iget(struct super_block *sb, unsigned long ino) goto bad_inode; raw_inode = ext4_raw_inode(&iloc); + if ((ino == EXT4_ROOT_INO) && (raw_inode->i_links_count == 0)) { + EXT4_ERROR_INODE(inode, "root inode unallocated"); + ret = -EFSCORRUPTED; + goto bad_inode; + } + if (EXT4_INODE_SIZE(inode->i_sb) > EXT4_GOOD_OLD_INODE_SIZE) { ei->i_extra_isize = le16_to_cpu(raw_inode->i_extra_isize); if (EXT4_GOOD_OLD_INODE_SIZE + ei->i_extra_isize > -- 2.16.1.72.g5be1f00a9a

Patch "tty: vt: fix up tabstops properly" has been added to the 4.9-stable tree

by gregkh＠linuxfoundation.org

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tty: vt: fix up tabstops properly to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=sum… The filename of the patch is: tty-vt-fix-up-tabstops-properly.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable(a)vger.kernel.org> know about it. >From f1869a890cdedb92a3fab969db5d0fd982850273 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds(a)linux-foundation.org> Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2018 10:43:26 +0100 Subject: tty: vt: fix up tabstops properly From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds(a)linux-foundation.org> commit f1869a890cdedb92a3fab969db5d0fd982850273 upstream. Tabs on a console with long lines do not wrap properly, so correctly account for the line length when computing the tab placement location.
