[ Upstream commit 7893cc1225 ]
Sheng Yong reported [1] that Android APEX images didn't work with commit
072a7c7cdb ("erofs: don't bother with s_stack_depth increasing for
now") because "EROFS-formatted APEX file images can be stored within an
EROFS-formatted Android system partition."
In response, I sent a quick fat-fingered [PATCH v3] to address the
report. Unfortunately, the updated condition was incorrect:
if (erofs_is_fileio_mode(sbi)) {
- sb->s_stack_depth =
- file_inode(sbi->dif0.file)->i_sb->s_stack_depth + 1;
- if (sb->s_stack_depth > FILESYSTEM_MAX_STACK_DEPTH) {
- erofs_err(sb, "maximum fs stacking depth exceeded");
+ inode = file_inode(sbi->dif0.file);
+ if ((inode->i_sb->s_op == &erofs_sops && !sb->s_bdev) ||
+ inode->i_sb->s_stack_depth) {
The condition `!sb->s_bdev` is always true for all file-backed EROFS
mounts, making the check effectively a no-op.
The real fix tested and confirmed by Sheng Yong [2] at that time was
[PATCH v3 RESEND], which correctly ensures the following EROFS^2 setup
works:
EROFS (on a block device) + EROFS (file-backed mount)
But sadly I screwed it up again by upstreaming the outdated [PATCH v3].
This patch applies the same logic as the delta between the upstream
[PATCH v3] and the real fix [PATCH v3 RESEND].
