Subject: [PATCH] erofs: fix unbalanced buf->off handling in erofs_bread()
Date: Sat, 12 Sep 2026 10:57:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260912025709.25604-1-l3b2w1@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Binglei Wang <l3b2w1@gmail.com>

erofs_bread() locates the target folio with

	index = (buf->off + offset) >> PAGE_SHIFT;

but computes the in-folio offset without taking buf->off into account:

	return buf->base + (offset & ~PAGE_MASK);

If buf->off is not page-aligned, the returned pointer misses the in-page
component of buf->off, so callers end up fetching data from a wrong
offset.

buf->off is set to sbi->dif0.fsoff in erofs_init_metabuf(), and fsoff can
be specified via the "fsoffset=" mount option, which only requires
block-size alignment.  Therefore, on an image with a sub-page block size
(e.g. 512 bytes), a non-page-aligned fsoff (e.g. 512) triggers the issue,
since 512 is a multiple of the block size but not of PAGE_SIZE.

It can be reproduced by mounting an image that is placed at a
non-page-aligned offset:

	mkfs.erofs -b512 -zlz4hc sub.erofs src/
	# prepend 512 bytes of padding to the image
	mount -t erofs -o loop,fsoffset=512 padded.erofs /mnt

which fails with

	erofs (device loop0): cannot find valid erofs superblock

because the on-disk superblock (at offset 1024 within the image, i.e.
1536 within the padded file) is read from a wrong in-folio offset.  With
this fixed, the very same image mounts successfully and its file contents
match those read from the unpadded image.

Fix it by including buf->off in the in-folio offset calculation, so that
it is consistent with the folio index calculation.

Fixes: c36ec00d7f67 ("erofs: add 'fsoffset' mount option to specify filesystem offset")
