This fs image is problematic for offline resize2fs shrink. (sorry, it expands to 11G)

# resize2fs <image> 2507776

will lead to corruption[1] because the new size is in the middle of a block group which has its inode & block bitmaps towards the end; the bitmaps are left beyond the end of the new filesystem.

I've been trying to find my way around resize2fs, but bleah, I must admit to being perpetually lost.

I'm not sure there's any simple functionality to handle this case; does anything else ever need to move bitmaps?

I was looking at blocks_to_move(), and within the "shrinking" loop I added logic to detect this case:

                /* If this (first) group will remain but bitmaps are past EOF, move them */
                if (g == ext2fs_group_of_blk2(fs, ext2fs_blocks_count(fs->super))) {
                        int retval;
                        blk64_t new_size = ext2fs_blocks_count(fs->super);

                        if ((IS_BLOCK_BM(fs, g, blk) || IS_INODE_BM(fs, g, blk)) &&
                            (blk >= new_size)) {

                            <do something>
                        }

but at this point I'm not sure what to do. The magic around identifying & marking & reserving & accounting for moved blocks has me stumped.

I'm happy to keep looking at it but could use some pointers, or if the fix is obvious to someone, by all means have at it. :)

Thanks,

PATCH 1/1 resize2fs: move bitmaps if shrinking would orphan them

It is possible to have a flex_bg filesystem with block groups which have inode & block bitmaps at some point well past the start of the group.

If an offline shrink puts the new size somewhere between the start of the block group and the (old) location of the bitmaps, they can be left beyond the end of the filesystem, i.e. result in fs corruption.

Check each remaining block group for whether its bitmaps are beyond the end of the new filesystem, and reallocate them in a new location if needed.

---

I have no idea if this is the right approach or not ;)

Looks good, thanks for the patch. I made a few minor changes to fix up some extra whitespace and a minor optimization.
