f2fs: add READ_ONCE() for i_blocks in f2fs_update_inode()

2026-05-14T13:31:17+00:00

commit 5471834a96fb697874be2ca0b052e74bcf3c23d1 upstream. f2fs_update_inode() reads inode->i_blocks without holding i_lock to serialize it to the on-disk inode, while concurrent truncate or allocation paths may modify i_blocks under i_lock. Since blkcnt_t is u64, this risks torn reads on 32-bit architectures. Following the approach in ext4_inode_blocks_set(), add READ_ONCE() to prevent potential compiler-induced tearing.

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim: "In this development cycle, we focused on several key performance optimizations: - introducing large folio support to enhance read speeds for immutable files - reducing checkpoint=enable latency by flushing only committed dirty pages - implementing tracepoints to diagnose and resolve lock priority inversion. Additionally, we introduced the packed_ssa feature to optimize the SSA footprint when utilizing large block sizes. Detail summary: Enhancements: - support large folio for immutable non-compressed case - support non-4KB block size without packed_ssa feature - optimize f2fs_enable_checkpoint() to avoid long delay - optimize f2fs_overwrite_io() for f2fs_iomap_begin - optimize NAT block loading during checkpoint write - add write latency stats for NAT and SIT blocks in f2fs_write_checkpoint - pin files do not require sbi->writepages lock for ordering - avoid f2fs_map_blocks() for consecutive holes in readpages - flush plug periodically during GC to maximize readahead effect - add tracepoints to catch lock overheads - add several sysfs entries to tune internal lock priorities Fixes: - fix lock priority inversion issue - fix incomplete block usage in compact SSA summaries - fix to show simulate_lock_timeout correctly - fix to avoid mapping wrong physical block for swapfile - fix IS_CHECKPOINTED flag inconsistency issue caused by concurrent atomic commit and checkpoint writes - fix to avoid UAF in f2fs_write_end_io()" * tag 'f2fs-for-7.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs: (61 commits) f2fs: sysfs: introduce critical_task_priority f2fs: introduce trace_f2fs_priority_update f2fs: fix lock priority inversion issue f2fs: optimize f2fs_overwrite_io() for f2fs_iomap_begin f2fs: fix incomplete block usage in compact SSA summaries f2fs: decrease maximum flush retry count in f2fs_enable_checkpoint() f2fs: optimize NAT block loading during checkpoint write f2fs: change size parameter of __has_cursum_space() to unsigned int f2fs: add write latency stats for NAT and SIT blocks in f2fs_write_checkpoint f2fs: pin files do not require sbi->writepages lock for ordering f2fs: fix to show simulate_lock_timeout correctly f2fs: introduce FAULT_SKIP_WRITE f2fs: check skipped write in f2fs_enable_checkpoint() Revert "f2fs: add timeout in f2fs_enable_checkpoint()" f2fs: fix to unlock folio in f2fs_read_data_large_folio() f2fs: fix error path handling in f2fs_read_data_large_folio() f2fs: use folio_end_read f2fs: fix to avoid mapping wrong physical block for swapfile f2fs: avoid f2fs_map_blocks() for consecutive holes in readpages f2fs: advance index and offset after zeroing in large folio read ...

As Zhiguo reported, nat entry of quota inode could be corrupted: "ino/block_addr=NULL_ADDR in nid=4 entry" We'd better to do sanity check on quota inode to detect and record nat.blk_addr inconsistency, so that we can have a chance to repair it w/ later fsck.

This patch enables large folio for limited case where we can get the high-order memory allocation. It supports the encrypted and fsverity files, which are essential for Android environment.

f2fs: Add sanity checks before unlinking and loading inodes

2025-12-04T02:00:03+00:00

Add check for inode->i_nlink == 1 for directories during unlink, as their value is decremented twice, which can trigger a warning in drop_nlink. In such case mark the filesystem as corrupted and return from the function call with the relevant failure return value. Additionally add the check for i_nlink == 1 in sanity_check_inode in order to detect on-disk corruption early.
