Subject: [PATCH 4.19 5.4 5.10 5.15 6.1 6.6] nilfs2: fix potential kernel bug due to lack of writeback flag waiting
Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2024 03:17:29 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240616181729.6672-1-konishi.ryusuke@gmail.com> (raw)
commit a4ca369ca221bb7e06c725792ac107f0e48e82e7 upstream.
Destructive writes to a block device on which nilfs2 is mounted can cause
a kernel bug in the folio/page writeback start routine or writeback end
routine (__folio_start_writeback in the log below):
kernel BUG at mm/page-writeback.c:3070!
Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI

This is because when the log writer starts a writeback for segment summary
blocks or a super root block that use the backing device's page cache, it
does not wait for the ongoing folio/page writeback, resulting in an
inconsistent writeback state.
Fix this issue by waiting for ongoing writebacks when putting
folios/pages on the backing device into writeback state.

Please apply this patch to the stable trees indicated by the subject
prefix instead of the patch that failed.
This patch is tailored to account for page/folio conversion and can
be applied to v6.7 and earlier.
Also, all the builds and tests I did on each stable tree passed.
Thanks,
Ryusuke Konishi
