Brian Foster 3e78b9a468 xfs: shutdown if block allocation overruns tx reservation
The ->t_blk_res_used field tracks how many blocks have been used in
the current transaction. This should never exceed the block
reservation (->t_blk_res) for a particular transaction. We currently
assert this condition in the transaction block accounting code, but
otherwise take no additional action should this situation occur.

The overrun generally has no effect if space ends up being available
and the associated transaction commits. If the transaction is
duplicated, however, the current block usage is used to determine
the remaining block reservation to be transferred to the new
transaction. If usage exceeds reservation, this calculation
underflows and creates a transaction with an invalid and excessive
reservation. When the second transaction commits, the release of
unused blocks corrupts the in-core free space counters. With lazy
superblock accounting enabled, this inconsistency eventually
trickles to the on-disk superblock and corrupts the filesystem.

Replace the transaction block usage accounting assert with an
explicit overrun check. If the transaction overruns the reservation,
shutdown the filesystem immediately to prevent corruption. Add a new
assert to xfs_trans_dup() to catch any callers that might induce
this invalid state in the future.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
