ubifs: Fix inconsistent inode size when powercut happens during appendant writing
UBIFS always make sure that the data length won't beyond the inode size by writing inode before writing page(See ubifs_writepage.). After commit c35acef3("ubifs: Convert ubifs_writepage to use a folio"), the rule is broken in one case: Given a file with size 3, then write 4096 from the offset 0, following process will make inode size be smaller than file data length after powercut & recovery: P1 P2 ubifs_writepage len = folio_size(folio) // 4096 if (folio_pos(folio) + len <= i_size) // condition 1: 0 + 4096 <= 4096 //(i_size is updated as 4096 in ubifs_write_end) if (folio_pos(folio) >= synced_i_size) // condition 2: 0 >= 3, false write_inode // Skipped, because condition 2 is false do_writepage(folio, len) // write one page do_commit // data node won't be replayed in next mounting >> Powercut << So, inode size(4096) is not updated into disk, we will get following error messages in next mounting(chk_fs = 1): check_leaf [ubifs]: data node at LEB 14:2048 is not within inode size 3 dbg_walk_index [ubifs]: leaf checking function returned error -22, for leaf at LEB 14:2048 Fix it by modifying condition 2 as original comparison(Compare the page index of synced_i_size with current page index).
