xfs_itruncate_extents_flags() is supposed to unmap every block in a file from EOF onwards. Oddly, it uses s_maxbytes as the upper limit to the bunmapi range, even though s_maxbytes reflects the highest offset the pagecache can support, not the highest offset that XFS supports. The result of this confusion is that if you create a 20T file on a 64-bit machine, mount the filesystem on a 32-bit machine, and remove the file, we leak everything above 16T. Fix this by capping the bunmapi request at the maximum possible block offset, not s_maxbytes. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
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.
