stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.3 commit 7343c23ebcadbedc23a7063d1e24d976eccb0d0d category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8LBQP
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
commit ce56d21355cd6f6937aca32f1f44ca749d1e4808 upstream.
syzbot reports that the following warning from ext4_iomap_begin() triggers as of the commit referenced below:
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(ext4_has_inline_data(inode))) return -ERANGE;
This occurs during a dio write, which is never expected to encounter an inode with inline data. To enforce this behavior, ext4_dio_write_iter() checks the current inline state of the inode and clears the MAY_INLINE_DATA state flag to either fall back to buffered writes, or enforce that any other writers in progress on the inode are not allowed to create inline data.
The problem is that the check for existing inline data and the state flag can span a lock cycle. For example, if the ilock is originally locked shared and subsequently upgraded to exclusive, another writer may have reacquired the lock and created inline data before the dio write task acquires the lock and proceeds.
The commit referenced below loosens the lock requirements to allow some forms of unaligned dio writes to occur under shared lock, but AFAICT the inline data check was technically already racy for any dio write that would have involved a lock cycle. Regardless, lift clearing of the state bit to the same lock critical section that checks for preexisting inline data on the inode to close the race.
