Subject: mke2fs -O 64bit -E resize=<anything> divides by 0
Date: 11 Nov 2012 17:27:16 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121111222716.11311.qmail@science.horizon.com> (raw)
I'm using v1.43-WIP-2012-09-22-10-g41bf599, last commit Oct. 14.
I'm trying to create a file system with 64bit support and specify a
maximum resize limit of 64 TiB = 2^34 blocks = 17179869184.
(gdb) run -n -t ext4 -O 64bit -E resize=4294967296 /dev/md1
Starting program: /root/e2fsprogs/misc/mke2fs -n -t ext4 -O 64bit -E resize=4294967295 /dev/md1

mke2fs 1.43-WIP (22-Sep-2012)
Program received signal SIGFPE, Arithmetic exception.
0x0000000000405f5a in parse_extended_opts (opts=<optimized out>,
param=0x64e200) at mke2fs.c:800
800 gdpb = EXT2_DESC_PER_BLOCK(param);
The issue is that
#define EXT2_DESC_PER_BLOCK(s) (EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(s) / EXT2_DESC_SIZE(s))
#define EXT2_DESC_SIZE(s) \
((EXT2_SB(s)->s_feature_incompat & EXT4_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_64BIT) ? \
(s)->s_desc_size : EXT2_MIN_DESC_SIZE)
and s_desc_size is 0 because parse_extended_opts is called from PRS which
is called very early in main() at line 2320, while s_desc_size is set up
in ext2fs_initialize, which is not called from main() until mke2fs.c:2353.
As a temporary workaround, I notice that ext2fs_initialize sets s_desc_size to
the fixed value EXT2_MIN_DESC_SIZE_64BIT, so I changed the #define as follows:
#define EXT2_DESC_SIZE(s) \
((EXT2_SB(s)->s_feature_incompat & EXT4_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_64BIT) ? \
(s)->s_desc_size ?: EXT2_MIN_DESC_SIZE_64BIT : EXT2_MIN_DESC_SIZE)
... which seems to work.
(One point that occurred to me while wrestling with this is that the
default resize limit of initial size * 1000 should perhaps be clamped
to 2^32 if 64bit is not enabled.)
