Subject: [PATCH v2] hfs: handle extent B-tree write errors
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 20:40:39 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260922234039.1307375-1-davyfelipe34@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260920160213.285316-1-davyfelipe34@gmail.com>

__hfs_ext_write_extent() does not report all failures while updating
the extents B-tree.

When inserting a new extent record, the return value of
hfs_brec_insert() is ignored and HFS_FLG_EXT_DIRTY and HFS_FLG_EXT_NEW
are cleared even if the insertion fails.

When updating an existing extent record, hfs_bnode_write() returns
void, so its caller cannot detect a rejected write. Validate the extent
record size and node range before calling hfs_bnode_write().

Propagate errors returned by hfs_brec_insert() and return -EIO for an
invalid existing extent record. Only clear the extent dirty flags after
a successful operation.

Fault injection confirmed both failure paths. Insertion errors are
propagated to the caller, and invalid existing-record writes are
rejected before hfs_bnode_write() without clearing the dirty state.

Signed-off-by: Davy Felipe <davyfelipe34@gmail.com>

Changes in v2:
- Validate the existing extent record size and node range before
  calling hfs_bnode_write(), following review feedback.
- Return -EIO without clearing HFS_FLG_EXT_DIRTY when validation
  fails.
- Fault-injection tested the existing-record failure path. Before the
  change, hfs_bnode_write() rejected an invalid offset internally but
  __hfs_ext_write_extent() continued and cleared the dirty flag. With
  v2, the invalid write is rejected before hfs_bnode_write().
