Keys for extent interval records in the reverse mapping btree are
supposed to be computed as follows:
(physical block, owner, fork, is_btree, offset)
This provides users the ability to look up a reverse mapping from a file
block mapping record -- start with the physical block; then if there are
multiple records for the same block, move on to the owner; then the
inode fork type; and so on to the file offset.
Unfortunately, the code that creates rmap lookup keys from rmap records
forgot to mask off the record attribute flags, leading to ondisk keys
that look like this:
(physical block, owner, fork, is_btree, unwritten state, offset)
Fortunately, this has all worked ok for the past six years because the
key comparison functions incorrectly ignore the fork/bmbt/unwritten
information that's encoded in the on-disk offset. This means that
lookup comparisons are only done with:
(physical block, owner, offset)
Queries can (theoretically) return incorrect results because of this
omission. On consistent filesystems this isn't an issue because xattr
and bmbt blocks cannot be shared and hence the comparisons succeed
purely on the contents of the rm_startblock field. For the one case
where we support sharing (written data fork blocks) all flag bits are
zero, so the omission in the comparison has no ill effects.
Unfortunately, this bug prevents scrub from detecting incorrect fork and
bmbt flag bits in the rmap btree, so we really do need to fix the
compare code. Old filesystems with the unwritten bit erroneously set in
the rmap key struct will work fine on new kernels since we still ignore
the unwritten bit. New filesystems on older kernels will work fine
since the old kernels never paid attention to the unwritten bit.
A previous version of this patch forgot to keep the (un)written state
flag masked during the comparison and caused a major regression in
5.9.x since unwritten extent conversion can update an rmap record
without requiring key updates.
Note that blocks cannot go directly from data fork to attr fork without
being deallocated and reallocated, nor can they be added to or removed
from a bmbt without a free/alloc cycle, so this should not cause any
regressions.
Found by fuzzing keys[1].attrfork = ones on xfs/371.

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.
