[PATCH 5.3 071/105] jbd2: Fix possible overflow in jbd2_log_space_left()
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Dec 11 2019 - 10:59:25 EST
From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>
commit add3efdd78b8a0478ce423bb9d4df6bd95e8b335 upstream.
When number of free space in the journal is very low, the arithmetic in
jbd2_log_space_left() could underflow resulting in very high number of
free blocks and thus triggering assertion failure in transaction commit
code complaining there's not enough space in the journal:
J_ASSERT(journal->j_free > 1);
Properly check for the low number of free blocks.
