[PATCH 0/2] Ensure size values are rounded down

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We got an internal report about a file system not wanting to mount 
following 99e3ecfcb9f4 ("Btrfs: add more validation checks for superblock"). 

BTRFS error (device sdb1): super_total_bytes 1000203816960 mismatch with
fs_devices total_rw_bytes 1000203820544

Substracting the numbers we get a difference of less than a 4kb. Upon closer 
inspection it became apparent that mkfs actually rounds down the size of the 
device to a multiple of sector size. However, the same cannot be said for 
various functions which modify the total size and are called from btrfs_balanace
as well as when adding a new device. 

The first patch in the series re-implements the btrfs_device_total_bytes
getter/setters manually so that we can add a WARN_ON to catch future offenders. 
I haven't implemented all 4 function that the macros do since we only ever use
the getter and setter. 

The second patch ensures that all the values passed to the setter are rounded 
down to a multiple of sectorsize. I also have an xfstest patch which passes
after this series is applied.

  btrfs: Manually implement device_total_bytes getter/setter
  btrfs: Round up values which are written for total_bytes_size
