count = ADDRS_PER_PAGE(dn.node_folio, inode);
count -= dn.ofs_in_node;
f2fs_bug_on(sbi, count < 0);
The fuzz test will trigger above bug_on in f2fs.
The root cause should be: in the corrupted inode, there is a direct node
which has the same ino and nid in its footer, so in f2fs_do_truncate_blocks(),
after f2fs_get_dnode_of_data() finds such dnode:
1) ADDRS_PER_PAGE(dn.node_folio, inode) will return 923
2) once dn.ofs_in_node points to addr[923, 1017]
Then it will trigger the system panic.
Let's introduce NODE_TYPE_NON_IXNODE to indicate current node should
not be an inode or xattr node, and then use it in below path to detect
inconsistent node chain in inode mapping table:
- f2fs_do_truncate_blocks
- f2fs_get_dnode_of_data
- f2fs_get_node_folio_ra
- __get_node_folio
- f2fs_sanity_check_node_footer
- case NODE_TYPE_NON_IXNODE -> check whether it is inode|xnode
