[PATCH] fs/xfs: Handle non-continuous data blocks in directory extents


From: Jon DeVree
Subject: [PATCH] fs/xfs: Handle non-continuous data blocks in directory extents
Date: Sun, 11 Feb 2024 10:34:58 -0500

The directory extent list does not have to be a continuous list of data
blocks. When GRUB tries to read a non-existant member of the list,
grub_xfs_read_file() will return a block of zero'ed memory. Checking for
a zero'ed magic number is sufficient to skip this non-existant data
block.

Prior to commit 07318ee7e this was handled as a subtle side effect of
reading the (non-existant) tail data structure. Since the block was
zero'ed the computation of the number of directory entries in the block
would return 0 as well.

Fixes: 07318ee7e (fs/xfs: Fix XFS directory extent parsing)
Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2254370
