Eric Whitney bca9fb7a5a ext4: correct inline offset when handling xattrs in inode body
commit 6909cf5c41 upstream.

When run on a file system where the inline_data feature has been
enabled, xfstests generic/269, generic/270, and generic/476 cause ext4
to emit error messages indicating that inline directory entries are
corrupted.  This occurs because the inline offset used to locate
inline directory entries in the inode body is not updated when an
xattr in that shared region is deleted and the region is shifted in
memory to recover the space it occupied.  If the deleted xattr precedes
the system.data attribute, which points to the inline directory entries,
that attribute will be moved further up in the region.  The inline
offset continues to point to whatever is located in system.data's former
location, with unfortunate effects when used to access directory entries
or (presumably) inline data in the inode body.

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.
