    xfs: fix SEEK_HOLE/DATA for regions with active COW extents · 4b2f459d
    Dave Chinner authored
    A data corruption problem was reported by CoreOS image builders
    when using reflink based disk image copies and then converting
    them to qcow2 images. The converted images failed the conversion
    verification step, and it was isolated down to the fact that
    qemu-img uses SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA to find the data it is supposed to
    copy.
    
    The reproducer allowed me to isolate the issue down to a region of
    the file that had overlapping data and COW fork extents, and the
    problem was that the COW fork extent was being reported in it's
    entirity by xfs_seek_iomap_begin() and so skipping over the real
    data fork extents in that range.
    
    This was somewhat hidden by the fact that 'xfs_bmap -vvp' reported
    all the extents correctly, and reading the file completely (i.e. not
    using seek to skip holes) would map the file correctly and all the
    correct data extents are read. Hence the problem is isolated to just
    the xfs_seek_iomap_begin() implementation.
    
    Instrumentation with trace_printk made the problem obvious: we are
    passing the wrong length to xfs_trim_extent() in
    xfs_seek_iomap_begin(). We are passing the end_fsb, not the
    maximum length of the extent we want to trim the map too. Hence the
    COW extent map never gets trimmed to the start of the next data fork
    extent, and so the seek code treats the entire COW fork extent as
    unwritten and skips entirely over the data fork extents in that
    range.
