Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: release correct delalloc amount in direct IO write path
Running generic/406 causes the following WARNING in btrfs_destroy_inode()
which tells there are outstanding extents left.
In btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write(), we reserve a temporary outstanding
extents with btrfs_delalloc_reserve_metadata() (or indirectly from
btrfs_delalloc_reserve_space(()). We then release the outstanding extents
with btrfs_delalloc_release_extents(). However, the "len" can be modified
in the COW case, which releases fewer outstanding extents than expected.
Fix it by calling btrfs_delalloc_release_extents() for the original length.
To reproduce the warning, the filesystem should be 1 GiB. It's
triggering a short-write, due to not being able to allocate a large
extent and instead allocating a smaller one.
