mainline inclusion from mainline-5.11-rc4 commit 6b4b8e6b4ad8553660421d6360678b3811d5deb9 category: bugfix bugzilla: 46884 CVE: NA ---------------------------
We got a "deleted inode referenced" warning cross our fsstress test. The bug can be reproduced easily with following steps:
cd /dev/shm mkdir test/ fallocate -l 128M img mkfs.ext4 -b 1024 img mount img test/ dd if=/dev/zero of=test/foo bs=1M count=128 mkdir test/dir/ && cd test/dir/ for ((i=0;i<1000;i++)); do touch file$i; done # consume all block cd ~ && renameat2(AT_FDCWD, /dev/shm/test/dir/file1, AT_FDCWD, /dev/shm/test/dir/dst_file, RENAME_WHITEOUT) # ext4_add_entry in ext4_rename will return ENOSPC!! cd /dev/shm/ && umount test/ && mount img test/ && ls -li test/dir/file1 We will get the output: "ls: cannot access 'test/dir/file1': Structure needs cleaning" and the dmesg show: "EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_lookup:1626: inode #2049: comm ls: deleted inode referenced: 139"
ext4_rename will create a special inode for whiteout and use this 'ino' to replace the source file's dir entry 'ino'. Once error happens latter(the error above was the ENOSPC return from ext4_add_entry in ext4_rename since all space has been consumed), the cleanup do drop the nlink for whiteout, but forget to restore 'ino' with source file. This will trigger the bug describle as above.
