            Bug ID: 216466
           Summary: ext4: dir corruption when ext4_dx_add_entry() fails
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 6.0.0-rc4
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: ext4
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
        Regression: No

Following process may lead to fs corruption:
1. ext4_create(dir/foo)
ext4_add_nondir
ext4_add_entry
ext4_dx_add_entry
a. add_dirent_to_buf
ext4_mark_inode_dirty
ext4_handle_dirty_metadata // dir inode bh is recorded into journal
b. ext4_append // dx_get_count(entries) == dx_get_limit(entries)
ext4_bread(EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE)
ext4_getblk
ext4_map_blocks
ext4_ext_map_blocks
ext4_mb_new_blocks
dquot_alloc_block
dquot_alloc_space_nodirty
inode_add_bytes // update dir's i_blocks
ext4_ext_insert_extent
ext4_ext_dirty // record extent bh into journal
ext4_handle_dirty_metadata(bh) // record new block into
journal
inode->i_size += inode->i_sb->s_blocksize // new size(in mem)
c. ext4_handle_dirty_dx_node(bh2) // record dir's new block(dx_node)
into journal
d. ext4_handle_dirty_dx_node((frame - 1)->bh)
e. ext4_handle_dirty_dx_node(frame->bh)
f. do_split // ret err!
g. add_dirent_to_buf
ext4_mark_inode_dirty(dir) // udpate raw_inode on disk(skipped)
2. fsck -a /dev/sdb
drop last block(dx_node) which beyonds dir's i_size.
/dev/sdb: recovering journal
/dev/sdb contains a file system with errors, check forced. /dev/sdb: Inode 12, end of extent exceeds allowed value
(logical block 128, physical block 3938, len 1)
3. fsck -fn /dev/sdb
dx_node->entry[i].blk > dir->i_size
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Problem in HTREE directory inode 12 (/dir): bad block number 128. Clear HTree index? no
Problem in HTREE directory inode 12: block #3 has invalid depth (2) Problem in HTREE directory inode 12: block #3 has bad max hash Problem in HTREE directory inode 12: block #3 not referenced

[Bug 216466] ext4: dir corruption when ext4_dx_add_entry() fails

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216466

--- Comment #1 from Zhihao Cheng ([email protected]) --- Reproducer:
1. Apply diff and compile kernel
2. ./test.sh,Stop machine after seeing kernel message "wait shutdown"
3. reboot,fsck -fa /dev/sdb
fsck from util-linux 2.38
/dev/sdb: recovering journal
/dev/sdb: Inode 12, end of extent exceeds allowed value

        (logical block 128, physical block 3819, len 1)

/dev/sdb: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
(i.e., without -a or -p options)
4. fsck -fn /dev/sdb
fsck from util-linux 2.38
e2fsck 1.43.4 (31-Jan-2017)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Inode 12, end of extent exceeds allowed value

        (logical block 128, physical block 3819, len 1)

Clear? no

Inode 12, i_blocks is 262, should be 260. Fix? no

Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Problem in HTREE directory inode 12 (/dir): bad block number 128. Clear HTree index? no

Problem in HTREE directory inode 12: block #2 has invalid depth (2) Problem in HTREE directory inode 12: block #2 has bad max hash Problem in HTREE directory inode 12: block #2 not referenced
