commit 783fda856e1034dee90a873f7654c418212d12d7 upstream. Linux fallocate(2) with FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE mode set, its offset can exceed the inode size. Ocfs2 now doesn't allow that offset beyond inode size. This restriction is not necessary and violates fallocate(2) semantics. If fallocate(2) offset is beyond inode size, just return success and do nothing further. Otherwise, ocfs2 will crash the kernel. kernel BUG at fs/ocfs2//alloc.c:7264! ocfs2_truncate_inline+0x20f/0x360 [ocfs2] ocfs2_remove_inode_range+0x23c/0xcb0 [ocfs2] __ocfs2_change_file_space+0x4a5/0x650 [ocfs2] ocfs2_fallocate+0x83/0xa0 [ocfs2] vfs_fallocate+0x148/0x230 SyS_fallocate+0x48/0x80 do_syscall_64+0x79/0x170 Signed-off-by: Changwei Ge <chge@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Joseph Qi <joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com> Cc: Mark Fasheh <mark@fasheh.com> Cc: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org> Cc: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@oracle.com> Cc: Changwei Ge <gechangwei@live.cn> Cc: Gang He <ghe@suse.com> Cc: Jun Piao <piaojun@huawei.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200407082754.17565-1-chge@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
