From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2009 17:43:20 +0000 (-0400) Subject: ext4: Fix softlockup caused by illegal i_file_acl value in on-disk inode X-Git-Tag: v2.6.30-rc4~24^2~2 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=485c26ec70f823f2a9cf45982b724893e53a859e;p=pandora-kernel.git ext4: Fix softlockup caused by illegal i_file_acl value in on-disk inode If the block containing external extended attributes (which is stored in i_file_acl and i_file_acl_high) is larger than the on-disk filesystem, the process which tried to access the extended attributes will endlessly issue kernel printks complaining that "__find_get_block_slow() failed", locking up that CPU until the system is forcibly rebooted. So when we read in the inode, make sure the i_file_acl value is legal, and if not, flag the filesystem as being corrupted. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
