Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

f2fs: fix to truncate meta inode pages forcely

Below race case can cause data corruption:

Thread A GC thread

				- gc_data_segment
				 - ra_data_block
				  - locked meta_inode page
  • f2fs_inplace_write_data
    • invalidate_mapping_pages
    fail to invalidate meta_inode page
    due to lock failure or dirty|writeback
    status
    • f2fs_submit_page_bio
    write last dirty data to old blkaddr
    – move_data_block
    – load old data from meta_inode page
    – f2fs_submit_page_write
    : write old data to new blkaddr

Because invalidate_mapping_pages() will skip invalidating page which
has unclear status including locked, dirty, writeback and so on, so
we need to use truncate_inode_pages_range() instead of
invalidate_mapping_pages() to make sure meta_inode page will be dropped.
