------------------ From: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarz...@redhat.com> commit 6905d9e4dda6112f007e9090bca80507da158e63 upstream. The GFS2 fallocate code chooses a target size to for allocating chunks of space. Whenever it can't find any resource groups with enough space free, it halves its target. Since this target is in bytes, eventually it will no longer be a multiple of blksize. As long as there is more space available in the resource group than the target, this isn't a problem, since gfs2 will use the actual space available, which is always a multiple of blksize. However, when gfs couldn't fallocate a bigger chunk than the target, it was using the non-blksize aligned number. This caused a BUG in later code that required blksize aligned offsets. GFS2 now ensures that bytes is always a multiple of blksize Signed-off-by: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarz...@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhit...@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@suse.de> --- fs/gfs2/file.c | 10 ++++++++-- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- a/fs/gfs2/file.c +++ b/fs/gfs2/file.c @@ -826,6 +826,7 @@ static long gfs2_fallocate(struct file * loff_t bytes, max_bytes; struct gfs2_alloc *al; int error; + loff_t bsize_mask = ~((loff_t)sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize - 1); loff_t next = (offset + len - 1) >> sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize_shift; next = (next + 1) << sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize_shift; @@ -833,13 +834,15 @@ static long gfs2_fallocate(struct file * if (mode & ~FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE) return -EOPNOTSUPP; - offset = (offset >> sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize_shift) << - sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize_shift; + offset &= bsize_mask; len = next - offset; bytes = sdp->sd_max_rg_data * sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize / 2; if (!bytes) bytes = UINT_MAX; + bytes &= bsize_mask; + if (bytes == 0) + bytes = sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize; gfs2_holder_init(ip->i_gl, LM_ST_EXCLUSIVE, 0, &ip->i_gh); error = gfs2_glock_nq(&ip->i_gh); @@ -870,6 +873,9 @@ retry: if (error) { if (error == -ENOSPC && bytes > sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize) { bytes >>= 1; + bytes &= bsize_mask; + if (bytes == 0) + bytes = sdp->sd_sb.sb_bsize; goto retry; } goto out_qunlock; _______________________________________________ stable mailing list stable@linux.kernel.org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/stable
