f2fs: fix use-after-free of sbi in f2fs_compress_write_end_io()

2026-03-24T17:21:00+00:00

In f2fs_compress_write_end_io(), dec_page_count(sbi, type) can bring the F2FS_WB_CP_DATA counter to zero, unblocking f2fs_wait_on_all_pages() in f2fs_put_super() on a concurrent unmount CPU. The unmount path then proceeds to call f2fs_destroy_page_array_cache(sbi), which destroys sbi->page_array_slab via kmem_cache_destroy(), and eventually kfree(sbi). Meanwhile, the bio completion callback is still executing: when it reaches page_array_free(sbi, ...), it dereferences sbi->page_array_slab — a destroyed slab cache — to call kmem_cache_free(), causing a use-after-free. This is the same class of bug as CVE-2026-23234 (which fixed the equivalent race in f2fs_write_end_io() in data.c), but in the compressed writeback completion path that was not covered by that fix. Fix this by moving dec_page_count() to after page_array_free(), so that all sbi accesses complete before the counter decrement that can unblock unmount. For non-last folios (where atomic_dec_return on cic->pending_pages is nonzero), dec_page_count is called immediately before returning — page_array_free is not reached on this path, so there is no post-decrement sbi access. For the last folio, page_array_free runs while the F2FS_WB_CP_DATA counter is still nonzero (this folio has not yet decremented it), keeping sbi alive, and dec_page_count runs as the final operation.

treewide: change inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64

2026-03-06T13:31:28+00:00

On 32-bit architectures, unsigned long is only 32 bits wide, which causes 64-bit inode numbers to be silently truncated. Several filesystems (NFS, XFS, BTRFS, etc.) can generate inode numbers that exceed 32 bits, and this truncation can lead to inode number collisions and other subtle bugs on 32-bit systems. Change the type of inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64 to ensure that inode numbers are always represented as 64-bit values regardless of architecture. Update all format specifiers treewide from %lu/%lx to %llu/%llx to match the new type, along with corresponding local variable types. This is the bulk treewide conversion. Earlier patches in this series handled trace events separately to allow trace field reordering for better struct packing on 32-bit.

f2fs: make f2fs_verify_cluster() partially large-folio-aware

2026-02-18T07:11:36+00:00

f2fs_verify_cluster() is the only remaining caller of the non-large-folio-aware function fsverity_verify_page(). To unblock the removal of that function, change f2fs_verify_cluster() to verify the entire folio of each page and mark it up-to-date. Note that this doesn't actually make f2fs_verify_cluster() large-folio-aware, as it is still passed an array of pages. Currently, it's never called with large folios.

f2fs: consolidate fsverity_info lookup

2026-02-04T19:31:54+00:00

Look up the fsverity_info once in f2fs_mpage_readpages, and then use it for the readahead, local verification of holes and pass it along to the I/O completion workqueue in struct bio_post_read_ctx. Do the same thing in f2fs_get_read_data_folio for reads that come from garbage collection and other background activities. This amortizes the lookup better once it becomes less efficient.

fsverity: push out fsverity_info lookup

2026-02-03T01:15:26+00:00

Pass a struct fsverity_info to the verification and readahead helpers, and push the lookup into the callers. Right now this is a very dumb almost mechanic move that open codes a lot of fsverity_info_addr() calls in the file systems. The subsequent patches will clean this up. This prepares for reducing the number of fsverity_info lookups, which will allow to amortize them better when using a more expensive lookup method.
