Ah...I can probably see what is going on. For some inexplicable
reason I am forgetting to take i_data_sem which means that we're
probably racing with truncate or something else.

Thanks a lot for letting me know and If you can please send me a
reproducer for your case because as I said I have not seen this
before.
Yes, it's reliably reproducible.
What I'm doing for testing is quite simple, just like that:
(/dev/vdb is a test block device, 16GiB in size)

# mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/vdb
# mkdir -p /mnt/test1
# mount -t ext4 -o discard /dev/vdb /mnt/test1
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/test1/file1 bs=2G count=1
# fallocate -z -l 2G /mnt/test1/file1

Then kernel crashes immediately.

Cheers,
Dongsu
Thanks!

I'll post the patches after we agree and merge the kernel functionality.

I tested this mostly with a subset of xfstests using fsx and fsstress and
even with new generic/290 which is just a copy of xfs/290 usinz fzero
command for xfs_io instead of zero (which uses ioctl). I was testing on
x86_64 and ppc64 with block sizes of 1024, 2048 and 4096.

./check generic/076 generic/232 generic/013 generic/070 generic/269 generic/083 generic/117 generic/068 generic/231 generic/127 generic/091 generic/075 generic/112 generic/263 generic/091 generic/075 generic/256 generic/255 generic/316 generic/300 generic/290;

Note that there is a work in progress on FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE which
touches the same area as this pach set does, so we should figure out
which one should go first and modify the other on top of it.

Thanks!
