Because of that, ubifs_delete_orphan assumes that it is not on the cnext list and frees it immediately instead of adding it to the dnext list. The freed orphan is later modified by write_orph_node. This can cause various inconsistencies including directory entries that cannot be removed and this error: UBIFS error (pid 20685): layout_cnodes: LPT out of space at LEB 14:129009 needing 17, done_ltab 1, done_lsave 1 This is a regression introduced by "7074e5eb UBIFS: remove invalid reference to list iterator variable". This change adds an explicit flag to ubifs_orphan indicating whether it is pending commit. --- fs/ubifs/orphan.c | 6 +++++- fs/ubifs/ubifs.h | 4 +++- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/ubifs/orphan.c b/fs/ubifs/orphan.c index 769701c..8433f53 100644 --- a/fs/ubifs/orphan.c +++ b/fs/ubifs/orphan.c @@ -132,7 +132,7 @@ void ubifs_delete_orphan(struct ubifs_info *c, ino_t inum) (unsigned long)inum); return; } - if (o->cnext) { + if (o->cmt) { o->dnext = c->orph_dnext; c->orph_dnext = o; spin_unlock(&c->orphan_lock); @@ -172,7 +172,9 @@ int ubifs_orphan_start_commit(struct ubifs_info *c) last = &c->orph_cnext; list_for_each_entry(orphan, &c->orph_new, new_list) { ubifs_assert(orphan->new); + ubifs_assert(!orphan->cmt); orphan->new = 0; + orphan->cmt = 1; *last = orphan; last = &orphan->cnext; } @@ -299,6 +301,7 @@ static int write_orph_node(struct ubifs_info *c, int atomic) cnext = c->orph_cnext; for (i = 0; i < cnt; i++) { orphan = cnext; + ubifs_assert(orphan->cmt); orph->inos[i] = cpu_to_le64(orphan->inum); cnext = orphan->cnext; orphan->cnext = NULL; @@ -378,6 +381,7 @@ static int consolidate(struct ubifs_info *c) list_for_each_entry(orphan, &c->orph_list, list) { if (orphan->new) continue; + orphan->cmt = 1; *last = orphan; last = &orphan->cnext; cnt += 1; diff --git a/fs/ubifs/ubifs.h b/fs/ubifs/ubifs.h index d133c27..c16fff7 100644 --- a/fs/ubifs/ubifs.h +++ b/fs/ubifs/ubifs.h @@ -904,6 +904,7 @@ struct ubifs_budget_req { * @dnext: next orphan to delete * @inum: inode number * @new: %1 => added since the last commit, otherwise %0 + * @cmt: %1 => commit pending, otherwise %0 */ struct ubifs_orphan { struct rb_node rb; @@ -912,7 +913,8 @@ struct ubifs_orphan { struct ubifs_orphan *cnext; struct ubifs_orphan *dnext; ino_t inum; - int new; + unsigned new:1; + unsigned cmt:1; }; /**
