DescriptionNVD

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

f2fs: fix to do sanity check on total_data_blocks

As Yanming reported in bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215916

The kernel message is shown below:

kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/segment.c:2560!

The root cause is: ckpt.valid_block_count is inconsistent with SIT table, stat info indicates filesystem has free blocks, but SIT table indicates filesystem has no free segment.

So that during garbage colloection, it triggers panic when LFS allocator fails to find free segment.

This patch tries to fix this issue by checking consistency in between ckpt.valid_block_count and block accounted from SIT.
