Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
f2fs: assign CURSEG_ALL_DATA_ATGC if blkaddr is valid<br />
<br />
mkdir /mnt/test/comp<br />
f2fs_io setflags compression /mnt/test/comp<br />
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/comp/testfile bs=16k count=1<br />
truncate --size 13 /mnt/test/comp/testfile<br />
<br />
In the above scenario, we can get a BUG_ON.<br />
kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/segment.c:3589!<br />
Call Trace:<br />
do_write_page+0x78/0x390 [f2fs]<br />
f2fs_outplace_write_data+0x62/0xb0 [f2fs]<br />

wb_writeback+0x192/0x310<br />
wb_workfn+0x30d/0x400<br />
<br />
The reason is we gave CURSEG_ALL_DATA_ATGC to COMPR_ADDR where the<br />
page was set the gcing flag by set_cluster_dirty().
