ext4: allow for the last group to be marked as trimmed
commit 7c784d624819acbeefb0018bac89e632467cca5a upstream. The ext4 filesystem tracks the trim status of blocks at the group level. When an entire group has been trimmed then it is marked as such and subsequent trim invocations with the same minimum trim size will not be attempted on that group unless it is marked as able to be trimmed again such as when a block is freed. Currently the last group can't be marked as trimmed due to incorrect logic in ext4_last_grp_cluster(). ext4_last_grp_cluster() is supposed to return the zero based index of the last cluster in a group. This is then used by ext4_try_to_trim_range() to determine if the trim operation spans the entire group and as such if the trim status of the group should be recorded. ext4_last_grp_cluster() takes a 0 based group index, thus the valid values for grp are 0..(ext4_get_groups_count - 1). Any group index less than (ext4_get_groups_count - 1) is not the last group and must have EXT4_CLUSTERS_PER_GROUP(sb) clusters. For the last group we need to calculate the number of clusters based on the number of blocks in the group. Finally subtract 1 from the number of clusters as zero based indexing is expected. Rearrange the function slightly to make it clear what we are calculating and returning. Reproducer: // Create file system where the last group has fewer blocks than // blocks per group $ mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -g 8192 /dev/nvme0n1 8191 $ mount /dev/nvme0n1 /mnt Before Patch: $ fstrim -v /mnt /mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed // Group not marked as trimmed so second invocation still discards blocks $ fstrim -v /mnt /mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed After Patch: fstrim -v /mnt /mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed // Group marked as trimmed so second invocation DOESN'T discard any blocks fstrim -v /mnt /mnt: 0 B (0 bytes) trimmed Fixes: 45e4ab320c9b ("ext4: move setting of trimmed bit into ext4_try_to_trim_range()") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 4.19+ Signed-off-by: Suraj Jitindar Singh <surajjs@amazon.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231213051635.37731-1-surajjs@amazon.com Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
