[PATCH 4.16 089/196] ext4: protect i_disksize update by i_data_sem in direct write path
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Apr 22 2018 - 11:54:44 EST
4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 73fdad00b208b139cf43f3163fbc0f67e4c6047c upstream.
i_disksize update should be protected by i_data_sem, by either taking
the lock explicitly or by using ext4_update_i_disksize() helper. But the
i_disksize updates in ext4_direct_IO_write() are not protected at all,
which may be racing with i_disksize updates in writeback path in
delalloc buffer write path.
This is found by code inspection, and I didn't hit any i_disksize
corruption due to this bug. Thanks to Jan Kara for catching this bug and
suggesting the fix!
