Squashfs: fix mount time sanity check for corrupted superblock

2012-10-02T16:47:54Z

commit cc37f75a9ffbbfcb1c3297534f293c8284e3c5a6 upstream. A Squashfs filesystem containing nothing but an empty directory, although unusual and ultimately pointless, is still valid. The directory_table >= next_table sanity check rejects these filesystems as invalid because the directory_table is empty and equal to next_table.

NFS: return error from decode_getfh in decode open

2012-10-02T16:47:38Z

commit 01913b49cf1dc6409a07dd2a4cc6af2e77f3c410 upstream. If decode_getfh failed, nfs4_xdr_dec_open would return 0 since the last decode_* call must have succeeded. Signed-off-by: Weston Andros Adamson Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

NFS: Fix a problem with the legacy binary mount code

2012-10-02T16:47:38Z

commit 872ece86ea5c367aa92f44689c2d01a1c767aeb3 upstream. Apparently, am-utils is still using the legacy binary mountdata interface, and is having trouble parsing /proc/mounts due to the 'port=' field being incorrectly set. The following patch should fix up the regression. Reported-by: Marius Tolzmann Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

NFS: Fix the initialisation of the readdir 'cookieverf' array

2012-10-02T16:47:38Z

commit c3f52af3e03013db5237e339c817beaae5ec9e3a upstream. When the NFS_COOKIEVERF helper macro was converted into a static inline function in commit 99fadcd764 (nfs: convert NFS_*(inode) helpers to static inline), we broke the initialisation of the readdir cookies, since that depended on doing a memset with an argument of 'sizeof(NFS_COOKIEVERF(inode))' which therefore changed from sizeof(be32 cookieverf[2]) to sizeof(be32 *). At this point, NFS_COOKIEVERF seems to be more of an obfuscation than a helper, so the best thing would be to just get rid of it.

eCryptfs: Copy up attributes of the lower target inode after rename

2012-10-02T16:47:23Z

commit 8335eafc2859e1a26282bef7c3d19f3d68868b8a upstream. After calling into the lower filesystem to do a rename, the lower target inode's attributes were not copied up to the eCryptfs target inode. This resulted in the eCryptfs target inode staying around, rather than being evicted, because i_nlink was not updated for the eCryptfs inode. This also meant that eCryptfs didn't do the final iput() on the lower target inode so it stayed around, as well. This would result in a failure to free up space occupied by the target file in the rename() operation. Both target inodes would eventually be evicted when the eCryptfs filesystem was unmounted. This patch calls fsstack_copy_attr_all() after the lower filesystem does its ->rename() so that important inode attributes, such as i_nlink, are updated at the eCryptfs layer. ecryptfs_evict_inode() is now called and eCryptfs can drop its final reference on the lower inode. http://launchpad.net/bugs/561129 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks Tested-by: Colin Ian King Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

vfs: dcache: use DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED instead of DCACHE_DISCONNECTED in d_kill()

2012-10-02T16:47:23Z

commit b161dfa6937ae46d50adce8a7c6b12233e96e7bd upstream. IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock deadlock. Commit c83ce989cb5f ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit. The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the dentry was killed. This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too, which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry tree. This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag. IBM reported successful test results with this patch.

vfs: make O_PATH file descriptors usable for 'fstat()'

2012-10-02T16:47:23Z

commit 55815f70147dcfa3ead5738fd56d3574e2e3c1c2 upstream. We already use them for openat() and friends, but fstat() also wants to be able to use O_PATH file descriptors. This should make it more directly comparable to the O_SEARCH of Solaris. Note that you could already do the same thing with "fstatat()" and an empty path, but just doing "fstat()" directly is simpler and faster, so there is no reason not to just allow it directly. See also commit 332a2e1244bd, which did the same thing for fchdir, for the same reasons. Reported-by: ольга крыжановская Cc: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

fuse: fix retrieve length

2012-09-14T17:00:50Z

commit c9e67d483776d8d2a5f3f70491161b205930ffe1 upstream. In some cases fuse_retrieve() would return a short byte count if offset was non-zero. The data returned was correct, though. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ext3: Fix fdatasync() for files with only i_size changes

2012-09-14T17:00:50Z

commit 156bddd8e505b295540f3ca0e27dda68cb0d49aa upstream. Code tracking when transaction needs to be committed on fdatasync(2) forgets to handle a situation when only inode's i_size is changed. Thus in such situations fdatasync(2) doesn't force transaction with new i_size to disk and that can result in wrong i_size after a crash. Fix the issue by updating inode's i_datasync_tid whenever its size is updated. Reported-by: Kristian Nielsen Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

udf: Fix data corruption for files in ICB

2012-09-14T17:00:50Z

commit 9c2fc0de1a6e638fe58c354a463f544f42a90a09 upstream. When a file is stored in ICB (inode), we overwrite part of the file, and the page containing file's data is not in page cache, we end up corrupting file's data by overwriting them with zeros. The problem is we use simple_write_begin() which simply zeroes parts of the page which are not written to. The problem has been introduced by be021ee4 (udf: convert to new aops). Fix the problem by providing a ->write_begin function which makes the page properly uptodate. Reported-by: Ian Abbott Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
