From f6db43076d190d9bf75559dec28e18b9d12e4ce5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chao Yu chao@kernel.org Date: Mon, 6 Dec 2021 22:44:20 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: fix to avoid panic in is_alive() if metadata is inconsistent
As report by Wenqing Liu in bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215231
If we enable CONFIG_F2FS_CHECK_FS config, and with fuzzed image attached in above link, we will encounter panic when executing below script:
1. mkdir mnt 2. mount -t f2fs tmp1.img mnt 3. touch tmp
F2FS-fs (loop11): mismatched blkaddr 5765 (source_blkaddr 1) in seg 3 kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/gc.c:1042! do_garbage_collect+0x90f/0xa80 [f2fs] f2fs_gc+0x294/0x12a0 [f2fs] f2fs_balance_fs+0x2c5/0x7d0 [f2fs] f2fs_create+0x239/0xd90 [f2fs] lookup_open+0x45e/0xa90 open_last_lookups+0x203/0x670 path_openat+0xae/0x490 do_filp_open+0xbc/0x160 do_sys_openat2+0x2f1/0x500 do_sys_open+0x5e/0xa0 __x64_sys_openat+0x28/0x40
Previously, f2fs tries to catch data inconcistency exception in between SSA and SIT table during GC, however once the exception is caught, it will call f2fs_bug_on to hang kernel, it's not needed, instead, let's set SBI_NEED_FSCK flag and skip migrating current block.
