From: Theodore Ts'o <ty...@mit.edu> commit c1e8220bd316d8ae8e524df39534b8a412a45d5e upstream.
If a program attempts to punch a hole on an inline data file, we need to convert it to a normal file first. This was detected using ext4/032 using the adv configuration. Simple reproducer: mke2fs -Fq -t ext4 -O inline_data /dev/vdc mount /vdc echo "" > /vdc/testfile xfs_io -c 'truncate 33554432' /vdc/testfile xfs_io -c 'fpunch 0 1048576' /vdc/testfile umount /vdc e2fsck -fy /dev/vdc Cc: sta...@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <ty...@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@linuxfoundation.org> --- fs/ext4/inode.c | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) --- a/fs/ext4/inode.c +++ b/fs/ext4/inode.c @@ -4297,6 +4297,15 @@ int ext4_punch_hole(struct inode *inode, trace_ext4_punch_hole(inode, offset, length, 0); + ext4_clear_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA); + if (ext4_has_inline_data(inode)) { + down_write(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_mmap_sem); + ret = ext4_convert_inline_data(inode); + up_write(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_mmap_sem); + if (ret) + return ret; + } + /* * Write out all dirty pages to avoid race conditions * Then release them.
