2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ (cherry picked from commit 503358ae01b70ce6909d19dd01287093f6b6271c) If s_log_groups_per_flex is greater than 31, then groups_per_flex will will overflow and cause a divide by zero error. This can cause kernel BUG if such a file system is mounted. Thanks to Nageswara R Sastry for analyzing the failure and providing an initial patch. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14287 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- fs/ext4/super.c | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) --- a/fs/ext4/super.c +++ b/fs/ext4/super.c @@ -1695,14 +1695,14 @@ static int ext4_fill_flex_info(struct su size_t size; int i; - if (!sbi->s_es->s_log_groups_per_flex) { + sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex = sbi->s_es->s_log_groups_per_flex; + groups_per_flex = 1 << sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex; + + if (groups_per_flex < 2) { sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex = 0; return 1; } - sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex = sbi->s_es->s_log_groups_per_flex; - groups_per_flex = 1 << sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex; - /* We allocate both existing and potentially added groups */ flex_group_count = ((sbi->s_groups_count + groups_per_flex - 1) + ((le16_to_cpu(sbi->s_es->s_reserved_gdt_blocks) + 1) << -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
