The quilt patch titled Subject: nilfs2: fix incorrect inode allocation from reserved inodes has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was nilfs2-fix-incorrect-inode-allocation-from-reserved-inodes.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

------------------------------------------------------ From: Ryusuke Konishi konishi.ryusuke@gmail.com Subject: nilfs2: fix incorrect inode allocation from reserved inodes Date: Sun, 23 Jun 2024 14:11:35 +0900

If the bitmap block that manages the inode allocation status is corrupted, nilfs_ifile_create_inode() may allocate a new inode from the reserved inode area where it should not be allocated.

Previous fix commit d325dc6eb763 ("nilfs2: fix use-after-free bug of struct nilfs_root"), fixed the problem that reserved inodes with inode numbers less than NILFS_USER_INO (=11) were incorrectly reallocated due to bitmap corruption, but since the start number of non-reserved inodes is read from the super block and may change, in which case inode allocation may occur from the extended reserved inode area.

If that happens, access to that inode will cause an IO error, causing the file system to degrade to an error state.

Fix this potential issue by adding a wraparound option to the common metadata object allocation routine and by modifying nilfs_ifile_create_inode() to disable the option so that it only allocates inodes with inode numbers greater than or equal to the inode number read in "nilfs->ns_first_ino", regardless of the bitmap status of reserved inodes.
