    ext4: add reserved GDT blocks check · b55c3cd1
    Zhang Yi authored
    We capture a NULL pointer issue when resizing a corrupt ext4 image which
    is freshly clear resize_inode feature (not run e2fsck). It could be
    simply reproduced by following steps. The problem is because of the
    resize_inode feature was cleared, and it will convert the filesystem to
    meta_bg mode in ext4_resize_fs(), but the es->s_reserved_gdt_blocks was
    not reduced to zero, so could we mistakenly call reserve_backup_gdb()
    and passing an uninitialized resize_inode to it when adding new group
    descriptors.
    
     mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda 3G
     tune2fs -O ^resize_inode /dev/sda #forget to run requested e2fsck
     mount /dev/sda /mnt
     resize2fs /dev/sda 8G

    The fix is simple, add a check in ext4_resize_begin() to make sure that
    the es->s_reserved_gdt_blocks is zero when the resize_inode feature is
    disabled.
