Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: avoid moving extents to occupied clusters
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 14:35:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260611213510.16956-1-kylebot@openai.com> (raw)
For non-auto OCFS2_IOC_MOVE_EXT operations, userspace supplies a
physical me_goal. ocfs2_move_extent() initializes new_phys_cpos from
that goal and expects ocfs2_probe_alloc_group() to replace it with a
free run in the target block group.
The probe currently leaves *phys_cpos unchanged if the scan reaches the
end of the group without finding a free run. An occupied goal at the
last bit can therefore survive the probe and be passed to
__ocfs2_move_extent(), which copies file data into a cluster still owned
by another inode before the bitmap is updated.
When the probe does find a free run, it also subtracts move_len from the
ending bit. The start of an N-bit run ending at i is i - N + 1, so the
current calculation can report the bit immediately before the free run.
Clear *phys_cpos before scanning and use the correct free-run start.
Callers already treat a zero result as -ENOSPC, so failed probes no
longer continue with an occupied caller-controlled goal.
