Subject: [Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 v3 1/5] dm-qcow2: fix a failed refcount table relocation leaking md pages
Date: Wed, 4 Nov 2026 19:01:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104180105.1807820-2-den@openvz.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104180105.1807820-1-den@openvz.org>
From: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org>
relocate_refcount_table() inserts md pages for the last cluster of the
new reftable and for the new refblocks, one page at a time from
pos + old_clus * clu_size up to r2_end. On error it frees pages from
end only, one per cluster, so the pages of the new reftable cluster
and all but the first page of each refblock cluster bigger than a page
stay in md_pages.
The header is rolled back, so the next allocation past the old refcount
coverage relocates the table again. Its first insert finds a leaked page
and fails with -EEXIST, the relocation returns -EIO, and every
allocating write beyond the old coverage fails with an I/O error until
the device is suspended and resumed or the table is reloaded. A failed
page allocation or a failed header write is enough to get there.
Free exactly the pages the allocation loop inserted when the relocation
fails before the header write. Once the header write has succeeded, the
error paths skip the freeing and only return -EIO: the header on disk
already points at the new table, and its pages may be dirty and queued
for writeback by then.
