This fault seems to be caused by "record offset" which is larger than "node size". I've verified this with setting probe and look value of recoff using perf like this: perf probe -m hfsplus -a 'hfsplus_brec_keylen:13 recoff node->tree->node_size' it printed following line showing recoff get larger than node_size mplayer-18734 [003] 21506.855550: hfsplus_brec_keylen: (hfsplus_brec_keylen+0x5d/0xc0 [hfsplus]) recoff=3333 node_size=2000 Though this fault doesn't stop kernel entirely, it stop filesystem and suspend to work (because user process is blocked and so it cannot freeze any more), so it's really annoying. >From 5278a51f2a140efcc63119cc4226735f79c1fce4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Naohiro Aota <naota@elisp.net> Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2011 02:54:13 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] hfsplus: Add record offset check Corrupted disk may return record offset which is larger than node size and cause general protection fault like below: [162346.360154] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP [162346.360178] CPU 3 [162346.360182] Modules linked in: nfsd lockd nfs_acl auth_rpcgss sunrpc snd_seq_oss snd_seq_midi_event snd_seq snd_seq_device snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss ip6table_filter ip6_tables iptable_filter ip_tables x_tables ipv6 kvm_intel kvm rtc hfsplus btrfs zlib_deflate zlib_inflate nouveau snd_hda_codec_hdmi arc4 brcmsmac(C) brcmutil(C) mac80211 snd_hda_codec_cirrus snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec ttm drm_kms_helper drm snd_hwdep cfg80211 tg3 snd_pcm snd_timer snd usb_storage hid_apple i2c_algo_bit usbhid applesmc hwmon libphy uhci_hcd mxm_wmi uvcvideo rfkill wmi bcm5974 input_polldev intel_ips crc_ccitt soundcore snd_page_alloc sg apple_bl video battery ac button [162346.360331] [162346.360335] Pid: 11835, comm: mplayer Tainted: G C 3.0.0-rc4 #37 Apple Inc.

I am concerned that you have so far worked in isolation and not discuss your work with others, also you only mentioned a problem (the one on discussion here) only when I asked for a progress/status update.

(3) explain your purpose of posting this patch to linux-kernel. You just posted it, saying there is a problem, there is a band-aid. In what way do you expect others to respond to your posting? As it is a band-aid, request for inclusion to standard kernel release is out, really. I have looked over the updated commit log messages on the hfsplus kernel work on github yesterday. They are not good - you need to write more about your analysis and understanding of the netgear patch. In addition to that, you need to include a discussion of patch order and dependency in the commit message of either the first patch or the last of the series. Also, since one of the patches is about new "debug constants', that would mean there is new debug code, which means that should be separate and/or optional as well, but that's if and when you continue the devel work - you need to show that you understand what the patch does first, and that means describing them in the commit log messages, before you continue. Unlike userland code, review on kernel changes are taken far more seriously; few people would bother trying out unknown-stranger's kernel change without looking at what it does first; especially changes that can destabilize a whole system (lock-up in a kernel module -> lock up the kernel), and especially changes that might involve data corruption/loss such as in the file system layer.

This isn't acceptable. Explained above. 'recoff' is read from disk which can be easily fuzzed to have an offset that's larger than node_size, no? The kernel shouldn't oops in that cases so what's the problem with the patch? (The changelog is terribly vague, though, and needs to be fixed).

You have put your finger one problem of the patch - 'The changelog is terribly vague, though, and needs to be fixed'. The other issue is that, while the kernel should not oops no matter what, the patch (or the changelog itself) made no attempts at explaining why this specific approach. e.g. What happens after 'return 0'? For example. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Actually, it's not so relevant to the project.

No. "Corrupted disk may .." is just a possibility problem. It doesn't mean that I have corrupted the disk. I've just used the file systems read only. Also as Pekka noticed, "'recoff' is read from disk which can be easily fuzzed to have an offset that's larger than node_size". This 'recoff' is used as offset to memcpy without checking. This patch has the same concept as commit 9250f925972d03ccc0c0a4dd4e9b794d2ef6d52b. > (2) explain your reasoning of *how* and *why* you choose to band-aid > over this problem - considered that you have not yet found the cause, > you want to band-aid over it; there are multiple ways of band-aiding > over it, why did you choose this specific approach? and you need to > include a discussion of possible bad-side effects, if any, of > band-aiding over such a problem. hfsplus_bnode_read() which is called from hfsplus_bnode_read_u16(), is causing the fault. Since hfs_bnode_read_u16() can return any u16 numbers, we cannot assume some value as "error code", so it is difficult to check the error in hfsplus_bnode_read*(). Actually there is no way to report the range error to the callers. If we'd like to check the range and offset in hfsplus_bnode_read(), we need to modify not only hfsplus_bnode_read() but also all the function callers. Would it be a better solution? I don't think so. Even if there is another root cause of this fault here I have, it's still a big problem. Because 'recoff' is come from disk, it is easily fuzzed to have invalid out of range value, and it cause the fault, and make the file system completely unavailable untill the next reboot. About bad-side effects: I don't think there is serious bad-side effects. Above this patch code, 'recoff' is checked and if it is 0 and below this patch code, 'retval' (= keylen) is checked to be in acceptable range. In both case, hfsplus_brec_keylen() return 0. My patch is just doing additional check. The caller of hfsplus_brec_keylen() should be able to handle this 0 value as error code. If there is some bad-side effect, the caller may also fail to handle 'recoff' == 0 case or too large 'retval' (keylen) case. That should be another bug. > (3) explain your purpose of posting this patch to linux-kernel. You > just posted it, saying there is a problem, there is a band-aid.

Purpose of this patch is as same as commit 9250f925972d03ccc0c0a4dd4e9b794d2ef6d52b. This is a patch to handle on-disk corruption without oopsing. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

The most important part of your exposition above to accompany the change proposed is this: "The caller of hfsplus_brec_keylen() should be able to handle this 0 value as error code." Something to this effect should be in your initial commit log message, or in the patch itself. (e.g. "/* return error state for caller to handle */"). ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Change from v1: Change the check from "recoff >= node->tree->node_size" to "recoff > node->tree->node_size - 2": Check not only the first byte but also the last byte to be read is in to be read is in node range. >From 68382a218dac9ba4fe659aa77e350bce3a1c365a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Naohiro Aota <naota@elisp.net> Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2011 02:54:13 +0900 'recoff' is read from disk and used for an argument to memcpy, so if the value read from disk is larger than the page size, it result to "general protection fault". This patch add additional range check for the value, so that disk fuzz won't cause such fault.
