commit 4f8caa60 upstream. When ext4_map_blocks() is called with EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_ZERO to zero-out allocated blocks and these blocks are actually converted from unwritten extent the following race can happen: CPU0 CPU1 page fault page fault ... ... ext4_map_blocks() ext4_ext_map_blocks() ext4_ext_handle_unwritten_extents() ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized() - zero out converted extent ext4_zeroout_es() - inserts extent as initialized in status tree ext4_map_blocks() ext4_es_lookup_extent() - finds initialized extent write data ext4_issue_zeroout() - zeroes out new extent overwriting data This problem can be reproduced by generic/340 for the fallocated case for the last block in the file. Fix the problem by avoiding zeroing out the area we are mapping with ext4_map_blocks() in ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized(). It is pointless to zero out this area in the first place as the caller asked us to convert the area to initialized because he is just going to write data there before the transaction finishes. To achieve this we delete the special case of zeroing out full extent as that will be handled by the cases below zeroing only the part of the extent that needs it. We also instruct ext4_split_extent() that the middle of extent being split contains data so that ext4_split_extent_at() cannot zero out full extent in case of ENOSPC.
