[ Upstream commit b5ab3276eb69cacf44ecfb11b2bfab73096ff4e4 ]
Compression option in inode should not be changed after they have
been used, however, it may happen in below race case:
Thread A Thread B
- f2fs_ioc_set_compress_option
- check f2fs_is_mmap_file()
- check get_dirty_pages()
- check F2FS_HAS_BLOCKS()
- f2fs_file_mmap
- set_inode_flag(FI_MMAP_FILE)
- fault
- do_page_mkwrite
- f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite
- f2fs_get_block_locked
- fault_dirty_shared_page
- set_page_dirty
- update i_compress_algorithm
- update i_log_cluster_size
- update i_cluster_size
Avoid such race condition by covering f2fs_file_mmap() w/ i_sem lock,
meanwhile add mmap file check condition in f2fs_may_compress() as well.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
