Syzkaller reported the following issue:
oop0: detected capacity change from 0 to 32768
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in fs/jfs/jfs_dtree.c:1971:9
index -2 is out of range for type ‘struct dtslot [128]’
CPU: 0 PID: 3613 Comm: syz-executor270 Not tainted 6.0.0-syzkaller-09423-g493ffd6605b2 #0
Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 09/22/2022
Call Trace:
The issue is caused when the value of fsi becomes less than -1. The check to break the loop when fsi value becomes -1 is present but syzbot was able to produce value less than -1 which cause the error. This patch simply add the change for the values less than 0.
The patch is tested via syzbot.
