[PATCH] ext4: Fix WANRON caused by unconsistent boot loader inode's i_size and i_disksize

From: Zhihao Cheng
Date: Tue Mar 07 2023 - 22:03:42 EST


Using corrupted ext4 image(non-zero i_size for boot loader inode) could
trigger WARNON 'i_size_read(inode) < EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize' in
ext4_handle_inode_extension():

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2580 at fs/ext4/file.c:319
CPU: 0 PID: 2580 Comm: bb Not tainted 6.3.0-rc1-00004-g703695902cfa
RIP: 0010:ext4_file_write_iter+0xbc7/0xd10
Call Trace:
vfs_write+0x3b1/0x5c0
ksys_write+0x77/0x160
__x64_sys_write+0x22/0x30
do_syscall_64+0x39/0x80

Reproducer (See Link):
1. mount corrupted ext4 image with non-zero i_size for boot loader inode
2. ioctl(fd, EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT)
3. write(fd) // O_DIRECT

Fix it by setting i_disksize while first loading boot loader inode.
