Subject: [Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH] ocfs2: Fix data corruption after failed write
Date: Thu,  2 Mar 2023 16:38:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230302153843.18499-1-jack@suse.cz> (raw)

When buffered write fails to copy data into underlying page cache page,
ocfs2_write_end_nolock() just zeroes out and dirties the page. This can
leave dirty page beyond EOF and if page writeback tries to write this
page before write succeeds and expands i_size, page gets into
inconsistent state where page dirty bit is clear but buffer dirty bits
stay set resulting in page data never getting written and so data copied
to the page is lost. Fix the problem by invalidating page beyond EOF
after failed write.

Fixes: 6dbf7bb55598 ("fs: Don't invalidate page buffers in block_write_full_page()")
