I considered that approach but wasn't keen on setting br_startblock to 0
when it should be NULLSTARTBLOCK. Subsequent calls to xfs_bmbt_set_all()
handle NULLSTARTBLOCK differently but the net result ends up being the
same and the startblock eventually gets overridden anyway. I'll go with
your suggestion.

Hi Lachlan,
I would prefer manual assignment here than struct assignment.
r[1].br_startoff and r[1].br_blockcount will be
modified immediately, so it is not worth assigning via ( r[1] = PREV) as
it does extra instructions.
Compiler would most likely eliminate the extra assignment but, why to
leave on the wit of the compiler.
It should be like
r[1].br_state = PREV.br_state;
r[1].br_startblock = 0 ; /* No fancy stuff required here as the aim here
is that br_startoff does not get any thing random */

This should be all that's needed. This code handles the case where
the middle
portion of a delayed allocation is being converted and splits the
extent into
three. The r[1] extent is the rightmost extent that will remain a
delayed
allocation. Both br_startblock and br_state need to be setup and they
will be
the same as the original delayed allocation (PREV) so we just inherit
those
values. Comments?

Hi,
It appears that uninitialized r[3] in
xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real can potentially corrupt the startoff
for a particular case.
This sequence is below:
xfs_bmap_add_extent_delay_real (
...
xfs_bmbt_irec_t r[3]; /* neighbor extent entries */
case 0:
/*
* Filling in the middle part of a previous delayed
allocation.
* Contiguity is impossible here.
* This case is avoided almost all the time.
*/
temp = new->br_startoff - PREV.br_startoff;
xfs_bmbt_set_blockcount(ep, temp);
r[0] = *new;
r[1].br_startoff = new_endoff;
temp2 = PREV.br_startoff + PREV.br_blockcount - new_endoff;
r[1].br_blockcount = temp2;
xfs_bmap_insert_exlist(ip, idx + 1, 2, &r[0], XFS_DATA_FORK);
ip->i_df.if_lastex = idx + 1;
ip->i_d.di_nextents++;
Look at extent r[1]. It does not set br_startblock. That is, it is
any random value. Now, look at the xfs_bmbt_set_all. Though, it sets
the blockcount later, the startoff does not get changed.
#if XFS_BIG_BLKNOS
ASSERT((s->br_startblock & XFS_MASK64HI(12)) == 0);
r->l0 = ((xfs_bmbt_rec_base_t)extent_flag << 63) |
((xfs_bmbt_rec_base_t)s->br_startoff << 9) |
((xfs_bmbt_rec_base_t)s->br_startblock >> 43);
Top 21 bits are taken as it is. However, only 9 bit should be taken.
So, for random values, it corrupts the startoff which from 9-63 bits.
From the code inspection I agree with you that br_startblock doesn't
appear
to be initialized in this scenario. Otherwise I think the code looks
good.
If the br_startblock is initialized it should be a value that fits
in 52 bits out of 64 (this is what the ASSERT is for) and the top 12
bits will be 0.
The r->l0 gets the top 21 bits of br_startblock, the most significant
12 bits of
which are 0 and least significant 9 could be non 0. The r->l1 gets the
rest 43 (= 52-9 = 64-21) bits of br_startblock.
I will open a bug report for the uninitialized br_startblock.
Thank you for finding this problem.

Vlad

I have attached a small program which does the same thing as it is
being done here. I would appreciate if someone can verify that
assertion is correct.
