Btrfs creates hole extents to cover any unwritten section right before doing buffer writes after commit 3ac0d7b96a26 ("btrfs: Change the expanding write sequence to fix snapshot related bug."). However, that takes the start position of the buffered write to compare against the current EOF, hole extents would be created only if (EOF < start). If the EOF is at the middle of the buffered write, no hole extents will be created and a file hole without a hole extent is left in this file. This bug was revealed by generic/019 in fstests. 'fsstress' in this test may create the above situation and the test then fails all requests including writes, so the buffer write which is supposed to cover the hole (without the hole extent) couldn't make it on disk. Running fsck against such btrfs ends up with detecting file extent holes. Things could be more serious, some stale data would be exposed to userspace if files with this kind of hole are truncated to a position of the hole, because the on-disk inode size is beyond the last extent in the file. This fixes the bug by comparing the end position against the EOF. Signed-off-by: Liu Bo <bo.li.liu@oracle.com> --- fs/btrfs/file.c | 5 ++--- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
