Subject: [PATCH] ext4: don't remove reserved inodes in ext4_unlink()
Date: Sat, 25 Jan 2014 14:58:17 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1390633097-16194-1-git-send-email-guaneryu@gmail.com> (raw)

Corrupted ext4_dir_entry_2 struct on disk may have wrong inode number,
when the inode number is 8 (EXT4_JOURNAL_INO) and the file is deleted,
the journal inode is gone, and unmounting such a fs could trigger the
following BUG_ON() in start_this_handle().

	BUG_ON(journal->j_flags & JBD2_UNMOUNT);

Check inode number in ext4_unlink() and return error if the inode number
is reserved or nonexistent.

Tested by removing a reserved inode and unmounting the fs. Inodes 1-10
have been tested. Also tested by xfstests.

If this was the right way to go, I'll send another patch for ext3 too.
