Subject: [PATCH 02/13] ext4: reject encrypted inodes when block size > page size
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2026 01:09:47 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261011170958.1759230-3-libaokun@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261011170958.1759230-1-libaokun@linux.alibaba.com>

From: Alberto Garcia <berto@igalia.com>

Encryption is not supported when a filesystem's block size is larger
than the page size. ext4_check_large_folio() refuses to mount a
filesystem like that if the "encrypt" feature is already enabled, and
ext4_set_context() refuses to create encrypted inodes if the feature
is enabled after mounting.

However, a corrupted or hand-crafted filesystem can still have
encrypted inodes even if the "encrypt" feature is not set, and those
inodes can be unlocked if they're using v1 policies.

Check this in __ext4_iget() and reject them as corrupted.

Fixes: 709f0f1f1bf5 ("ext4: add checks for large folio incompatibilities when BS > PS")
