The local quota file in OCFS2 is divided into chunks, and each chunk begins with a header block holding a bitmap of the quota entries that chunk has handed out. Chunks are numbered from zero, and that number is used to convert the file offset of an entry back into a bit position in the bitmap. ocfs2_local_quota_add_chunk() appends a new chunk to the in-memory list and numbers it one past the chunk that was last: list_add_tail(&chunk->qc_chunk, &oinfo->dqi_chunk); chunk->qc_num = list_entry(chunk->qc_chunk.prev, struct ocfs2_quota_chunk, qc_chunk)->qc_num + 1; The predecessor is looked up after the new chunk is added to the list, so if the list was empty, the prev pointer is the list head itself. The head is the dqi_chunk member of struct ocfs2_mem_dqinfo and is not a chunk, so reading qc_num through it lands 16 bytes past the start of the head, on the dqi_gqinode pointer that follows it. The first chunk of the file is then numbered with the lower half of a kernel pointer instead of 0. The list is empty when the local quota file header claims the file has no chunks. ocfs2_local_read_info() takes dqi_chunks from that header without validating it, so an image with dqi_chunks == 0 takes this path when the first quota entry is allocated. ocfs2_create_local_dquot() turns the bad number into a file offset with ol_dqblk_off(), which shifts a 32-bit block number left by the block size bits, so the top bits of such a large block number are lost. ocfs2_local_release_dquot() turns the offset back into a bit index with ol_dqblk_chunk_off(), using the full chunk number, so the lost bits push that index far outside the bitmap, and clearing it corrupts unrelated memory. Compute the chunk number before putting the chunk on the list, and use 0 when the list is empty.
