Ryusuke Konishi 0bf463939c nilfs2: fix general protection fault in nilfs_btree_insert() 
commit 7633355e5c upstream.

If nilfs2 reads a corrupted disk image and tries to reads a b-tree node
block by calling __nilfs_btree_get_block() against an invalid virtual
block address, it returns -ENOENT because conversion of the virtual block
address to a disk block address fails.  However, this return value is the
same as the internal code that b-tree lookup routines return to indicate
that the block being searched does not exist, so functions that operate on
that b-tree may misbehave.

When nilfs_btree_insert() receives this spurious 'not found' code from
nilfs_btree_do_lookup(), it misunderstands that the 'not found' check was
successful and continues the insert operation using incomplete lookup path
data, causing the following crash:

 general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address

 </TASK>

This patch fixes the root cause of this problem by replacing the error
code that __nilfs_btree_get_block() returns on block address conversion
failure from -ENOENT to another internal code -EINVAL which means that the
b-tree metadata is corrupted.

By returning -EINVAL, it propagates without glitches, and for all relevant
b-tree operations, functions in the upper bmap layer output an error
message indicating corrupted b-tree metadata via
nilfs_bmap_convert_error(), and code -EIO will be eventually returned as
it should be.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
