However, even after the degeneration, log writes are still\nperformed by unmount processing etc., which causes mark_buffer_dirty() to\nbe called for buffer heads without the \"uptodate\" flag and causes the\nwarning.\n\nSince any writes should not be done to a read-only file system in the\nfirst place, this fixes the warning in mark_buffer_dirty() by letting\nnilfs_segctor_do_construct() abort early if in read-only mode.\n\nThis also changes the retry check of nilfs_segctor_write_out() to avoid\nunnecessary log write retries if it detects -EROFS that\nnilfs_segctor_do_construct() returned."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/nilfs2/segment.c"],"versions":[{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"bd89073fc7a5d03b1d06b372addbe405e5a925f4","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"e9c5412c5972124776c1b873533eb39e287a4dfa","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"4569a292a84e340e97d178898ad1cfe1a3080a61","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"7c3e662048053802f6b0db3a78e97f4e1f7edc4f","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"13f73ef77baa4764dc1ca4fcbae9cade05b83866","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"a73201c607d8e506358d60aafddda4246bdd9350","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"4005cec6847c06ee191583270b7cdd7e696543cc","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"55f7810632f993cff622a0ddbc7c865892294b61","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8c26c4e2694a163d525976e804d81cd955bbb40c","lessThan":"28a65b49eb53e172d23567005465019658bfdb4d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/nilfs2/segment.c"],"versions":[{"version":"3.10","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"3.10","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"4.14.315","lessThanOrEqual":"4.14.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"4.19.283","lessThanOrEqual":"4.19.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.4.243","lessThanOrEqual":"5.4.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.180","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.111","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.28","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.2.15","lessThanOrEqual":"6.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.3.2","lessThanOrEqual":"6.3.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.4","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"4.14.315"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"4.19.283"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"5.4.243"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.180"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.111"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.28"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.2.15"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.3.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.4"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bd89073fc7a5d03b1d06b372addbe405e5a925f4"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e9c5412c5972124776c1b873533eb39e287a4dfa"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4569a292a84e340e97d178898ad1cfe1a3080a61"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7c3e662048053802f6b0db3a78e97f4e1f7edc4f"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/13f73ef77baa4764dc1ca4fcbae9cade05b83866"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a73201c607d8e506358d60aafddda4246bdd9350"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4005cec6847c06ee191583270b7cdd7e696543cc"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/55f7810632f993cff622a0ddbc7c865892294b61"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/28a65b49eb53e172d23567005465019658bfdb4d"}],"title":"nilfs2:
