Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.4] jfs: truncate good inode pages when hard link is 0
Date: Tue, 5 Aug 2025 09:09:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250805130945.471732-50-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250805130945.471732-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Lizhi Xu <lizhi.xu@windriver.com>
[ Upstream commit 2d91b3765cd05016335cd5df5e5c6a29708ec058 ]
The fileset value of the inode copy from the disk by the reproducer is
AGGR_RESERVED_I. When executing evict, its hard link number is 0, so its
inode pages are not truncated. This causes the bugon to be triggered when
executing clear_inode() because nrpages is greater than 0.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
**Backport Status: YES**
This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees based on the
following extensive analysis:
## Critical Bug Fix Nature
This commit fixes a kernel BUG_ON() crash that can be triggered in
production systems. Looking at the code changes and commit message:
1. **The Bug**: When JFS evicts an inode with `fileset ==
AGGR_RESERVED_I` and hard link count of 0, the inode pages were not
being truncated. This leads to a BUG_ON() trigger in `clear_inode()`
at fs/inode.c when checking `BUG_ON(inode->i_data.nrpages)`.
2. **Root Cause**: The original code only called
`truncate_inode_pages_final()` for inodes with `fileset ==
FILESYSTEM_I`, missing other fileset types like `AGGR_RESERVED_I`.
This left pages in memory when they should have been freed.
## Fix Characteristics
The fix is ideal for stable backporting:
1. **Minimal and Contained**: The change is just moving one line of code
- `truncate_inode_pages_final(&inode->i_data)` is moved outside the
`if (JFS_IP(inode)->fileset == FILESYSTEM_I)` condition block,
ensuring it runs for ALL inodes with 0 hard links, not just
FILESYSTEM_I inodes.
2. **Low Risk**: The change ensures proper cleanup for all inode types
during eviction, which is the expected behavior. The function
`truncate_inode_pages_final()` is safe to call for any inode being
evicted with no links.
3. **Clear Bug Report**: This fixes a syzbot-reported crash with a
reproducible test case
(syzbot+6e516bb515d93230bc7b@syzkaller.appspotmail.com).
## Impact Analysis
- **User Impact**: Without this fix, users can experience kernel
panics/crashes when specific JFS inode conditions occur
- **Security**: Prevents potential denial-of-service through triggerable
BUG_ON()
- **Regression Risk**: Minimal - the change ensures proper cleanup that
should have been happening all along
## Historical Context
Looking at related commits:
- Similar eviction-related fixes have been backported (e.g.,
e0e1958f4c36 "jfs: fix uaf in jfs_evict_inode")
- JFS has had multiple stability fixes in the eviction path that were
deemed stable-worthy
- The subsystem maintainer (Dave Kleikamp) signed off on this fix
The commit clearly meets stable kernel criteria: it fixes a real bug
that causes system crashes, the fix is minimal and correct, and there's
no risk of introducing new features or architectural changes.
