Subject: [PATCH v3 6/6] xfs: assert the reservation covers each da fork growth
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 17:06:18 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260810230611.2859909-14-floss@jetm.me> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260810230611.2859909-8-floss@jetm.me>

xfs_da_grow_inode_int() subtracts the blocks it just allocated from
args->total, the caller's remaining block reservation.  The subtraction
is unsigned, so a caller that reaches it with too small a total wraps
the field instead of failing, and every allocation afterwards runs with
a bogus reservation.  Assert the remaining reservation still covers the
step, so an under-reserved or uninitialised total trips in debug builds
instead of silently wrapping.
