mainlining shenanigans
de02b9f6bb
If we deduplicate extents between two different files we can end up
corrupting data if the source range ends at the size of the source file,
the source file's size is not aligned to the filesystem's block size
and the destination range does not go past the size of the destination
file size.
Example:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
$ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
$ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0x6b 0 2518890" /mnt/foo
# The first byte with a value of 0xae starts at an offset (2518890)
# which is not a multiple of the sector size.
$ xfs_io -c "pwrite -S 0xae 2518890 102398" /mnt/foo
# Confirm the file content is full of bytes with values 0x6b and 0xae.
$ od -t x1 /mnt/foo
0000000 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b

# Create a second file with a length not aligned to the sector size,
# whose bytes all have the value 0x6b, so that its extent(s) can be
# deduplicated with the first file.
$ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0x6b 0 557771" /mnt/bar
# Now deduplicate the entire second file into a range of the first file
# that also has all bytes with the value 0x6b. The destination range's
# end offset must not be aligned to the sector size and must be less
# then the offset of the first byte with the value 0xae (byte at offset
# 2518890).
$ xfs_io -c "dedupe /mnt/bar 0 1957888 557771" /mnt/foo
# The bytes in the range starting at offset 2515659 (end of the
# deduplication range) and ending at offset 2519040 (start offset
# rounded up to the block size) must all have the value 0xae (and not
# replaced with 0x00 values). In other words, we should have exactly
# the same data we had before we asked for deduplication.
$ od -t x1 /mnt/foo
0000000 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b

# Unmount the filesystem and mount it again. This guarantees any file

$ umount /dev/sdb
$ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
$ od -t x1 /mnt/foo

# The bytes in range 2515659 to 2519040 have a value of 0x00 and not a
# value of 0xae, data corruption happened due to the deduplication
# operation.
So fix this by rounding down, to the sector size, the length used for the
deduplication when the following conditions are met:
1) Source file's range ends at its i_size;
2) Source file's i_size is not aligned to the sector size;
3) Destination range does not cross the i_size of the destination file.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
