commit 00a1a053ebe5febcfc2ec498bd894f035ad2aa06 upstream.
Use cmpxchg() to atomically set i_flags instead of clearing out the
S_IMMUTABLE, S_APPEND, etc. flags and then setting them from the
EXT4_IMMUTABLE_FL, EXT4_APPEND_FL flags, since this opens up a race
where an immutable file has the immutable flag cleared for a brief
window of time.

commit dff6efc326a4d5f305797d4a6bba14f374fdd633 upstream.
Currently notify_change directly updates i_version for size updates,
which not only is counter to how all other fields are updated through
struct iattr, but also breaks XFS, which need inode updates to happen
under its own lock, and synchronized to the structure that gets written
to the log.
Remove the update in the common code, and it to btrfs and ext4,
XFS already does a proper updaste internally and currently gets a
double update with the existing code.
IMHO this is 3.13 and -stable material and should go in through the XFS
tree.

The set_flexbg_block_bitmap() function assumed that the number of
blocks in a blockgroup was sb->blocksize * 8, which is normally true,
but not always! Use EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) instead, to fix block
bitmap corruption after:

commit b93c95353413041a8cebad915a8109619f66bcc6 upstream.
If a file system has a large number of inodes per block group, all of
the metadata blocks in a flex_bg may be larger than what can fit in a
single block group. Unfortunately, ext4_alloc_group_tables() in
resize.c was never tested to see if it would handle this case
correctly, and there were a large number of bugs which caused the
following sequence to result in a BUG_ON:
kernel bug at fs/ext4/resize.c:409!
...
call trace:
[<ffffffff81256768>] ext4_flex_group_add+0x1448/0x1830

rip [<ffffffff81254fa1>] set_flexbg_block_bitmap+0x171/0x180
This can be reproduced with the following command sequence:
mke2fs -t ext4 -i 4096 /dev/vdd 1G
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /vdd
resize2fs /dev/vdd 8G
To fix this, we need to make sure the right thing happens when a block
group's inode table straddles two block groups, which means the
following bugs had to be fixed:
1) Not clearing the BLOCK_UNINIT flag in the second block group in
ext4_alloc_group_tables --- the was proximate cause of the BUG_ON.
2) Incorrectly determining how many block groups contained contiguous
free blocks in ext4_alloc_group_tables().
3) Incorrectly setting the start of the next block range to be marked
in use after a discontinuity in setup_new_flex_group_blocks().

commit 23301410972330c0ae9a8afc379ba2005e249cc6 upstream.
If an ext4 file system is created by some tool other than mke2fs
(perhaps by someone who has a pathalogical fear of the GPL) that
doesn't set one or the other of the EXT2_FLAGS_{UN}SIGNED_HASH flags,
and that file system is then mounted read-only, don't try to modify
the s_flags field. Otherwise, if dm_verity is in use, the superblock
will change, causing an dm_verity failure.

commit 15cc17678547676c82a5da9ccf357447333fc342 upstream.
Commit a115f749c1 (ext4: remove wait for unwritten extent conversion from
ext4_truncate) exposed a bug in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents().
It can be triggered by xfstest generic/299 when run on a test file
system created without a journal. This test continuously fallocates and
truncates files to which random dio/aio writes are simultaneously
performed by a separate process. The test completes successfully, but
if the test filesystem is mounted with the block_validity option, a
warning message stating that a logical block has been mapped to an
illegal physical block is posted in the kernel log.
The bug occurs when an extent is being converted to the written state
by ext4_end_io_dio() and ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents()
discovers a mapping for an existing uninitialized extent. Although it
sets EXT4_MAP_MAPPED in map->m_flags, it fails to set map->m_pblk to
the discovered physical block number. Because map->m_pblk is not
otherwise initialized or set by this function or its callers, its
uninitialized value is returned to ext4_map_blocks(), where it is
stored as a bogus mapping in the extent status tree.
Since map->m_pblk can accidentally contain illegal values that are
larger than the physical size of the file system, calls to
check_block_validity() in ext4_map_blocks() that are enabled if the
block_validity mount option is used can fail, resulting in the logged
warning message.

commit 09c455aaa8f47a94d5bafaa23d58365768210507 upstream.
A missing cast means that when we are truncating a file which is less
than 60 bytes, we don't clear the correct area of memory, and in fact
we can end up truncating the next inode in the inode table, or worse
yet, some other kernel data structure.

Commit f5a44db5d2 introduced a regression on filesystems created with
the bigalloc feature (cluster size > blocksize). It causes xfstests
generic/006 and /013 to fail with an unexpected JBD2 failure and
transaction abort that leaves the test file system in a read only state.
Other xfstests run on bigalloc file systems are likely to fail as well.
The cause is the accidental use of a cluster mask where a cluster
offset was needed in ext4_ext_map_blocks().

The missing casts can cause the high 64-bits of the physical blocks to
be lost. Set up new macros which allows us to make sure the right
thing happen, even if at some point we end up supporting larger
logical block numbers.

Akira-san has been reporting rare deadlocks of his machine when running
xfstests test 269 on ext4 filesystem. The problem turned out to be in
ext4_da_reserve_metadata() and ext4_da_reserve_space() which called
ext4_should_retry_alloc() while holding i_data_sem. Since
ext4_should_retry_alloc() can force a transaction commit, this is a
lock ordering violation and leads to deadlocks.
Fix the problem by just removing the retry loops. These functions should
just report ENOSPC to the caller (e.g. ext4_da_write_begin()) and that
function must take care of retrying after dropping all necessary locks.

When the filesystem doesn't support extents (like in ext2/3
compatibility modes), there is no need to reserve any clusters. Space
estimates for writing are exact, hole punching doesn't need new
metadata, and there are no unwritten extents to convert.
This fixes a problem when filesystem still having some free space when
accessed with a native ext2/3 driver suddently reports ENOSPC when
accessed with ext4 driver.

That thing should be del_timer_sync(); consider what happens
if ext4_put_super() call of del_timer() happens to come just as it's
getting run on another CPU. Since that timer reschedules itself
to run next day, you are pretty much guaranteed that you'll end up
with kfree'd scheduled timer, with usual fun consequences. AFAICS,
that's -stable fodder all way back to 2010... [the second del_timer_sync()
is almost certainly not needed, but it doesn't hurt either]

A corrupted ext4 may have out of order leaf extents, i.e.
extent: lblk 0--1023, len 1024, pblk 9217, flags: LEAF UNINIT
extent: lblk 1000--2047, len 1024, pblk 10241, flags: LEAF UNINIT
^^^^ overlap with previous extent
Reading such extent could hit BUG_ON() in ext4_es_cache_extent().
BUG_ON(end < lblk);
The problem is that __read_extent_tree_block() tries to cache holes as
well but assumes 'lblk' is greater than 'prev' and passes underflowed
length to ext4_es_cache_extent(). Fix it by checking for overlapping
extents in ext4_valid_extent_entries().
I hit this when fuzz testing ext4, and am able to reproduce it by
modifying the on-disk extent by hand.
Also add the check for (ee_block + len - 1) in ext4_valid_extent() to
make sure the value is not overflow.
Ran xfstests on patched ext4 and no regression.

While it's true that errors can only happen if there is a bug in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), if a bug does happen, we need to halt
the kernel or remount the file system read-only in order to avoid
further data loss. The ext4_journal_abort_handle() function doesn't
do any of this, and while it's likely that this call (since it doesn't
adjust refcounts) will likely result in the file system eventually
deadlocking since the current transaction will never be able to close,
it's much cleaner to call let ext4's error handling system deal with
this situation.
There's a separate bug here which is that if certain jbd2 errors
errors occur and file system is mounted errors=continue, the file
system will probably eventually end grind to a halt as described
above. But things have been this way in a long time, and usually when
we have these sorts of errors it's pretty much a disaster --- and
that's why the jbd2 layer aggressively retries memory allocations,
which is the most likely cause of these jbd2 errors.

Commit ec22ba8e ("ext4: disable merging of uninitialized extents")
ensured that if either extent under consideration is uninit, we
decline to merge, and ext4_can_extents_be_merged() returns false.
So there is no need for the caller to then test whether the
extent under consideration is unitialized; if it were, we
wouldn't have gotten that far.
The comments were also inaccurate; ext4_can_extents_be_merged()
no longer XORs the states, it fails if *either* is uninit.

Commit 4e7ea81db5(ext4: restructure writeback path) introduces another
performance regression on random write:
- one more page may be added to ext4 extent in
mpage_prepare_extent_to_map, and will be submitted for I/O so
nr_to_write will become -1 before 'done' is set
- the worse thing is that dirty pages may still be retrieved from page
cache after nr_to_write becomes negative, so lots of small chunks
can be submitted to block device when page writeback is catching up
with write path, and performance is hurted.
On one arm A15 board with sata 3.0 SSD(CPU: 1.5GHz dura core, RAM:
2GB, SATA controller: 3.0Gbps), this patch can improve below test's
result from 157MB/sec to 174MB/sec(>10%):
dd if=/dev/zero of=./z.img bs=8K count=512K
The above test is actually prototype of block write in bonnie++
utility.
This patch makes sure no more pages than nr_to_write can be added to
extent for mapping, so that nr_to_write won't become negative.

It doesn't make sense to require io_end->handle when we are in
nojournal mode. So update the assertion accordingly to avoid false
warnings from ext4_add_complete_io().

ext4: fix memory leak in xattr
ext4: fix performance regression in writeback of random writes

If we take the 2nd retry path in ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea, we
potentionally return from the function without having freed these
allocations. If we don't do the return, we over-write the previous
allocation pointers, so we leak either way.
Spotted with Coverity.
[ Fixed by tytso to set is and bs to NULL after freeing these
pointers, in case in the retry loop we later end up triggering an
error causing a jump to cleanup, at which point we could have a double
free bug. -- Ted ]

The Linux Kernel Performance project guys have reported that commit
4e7ea81db5 introduces a performance regression for the following fio
workload:
[global]
direct=0
ioengine=mmap
size=1500M
bs=4k
pre_read=1
numjobs=1
overwrite=1
loops=5
runtime=300
group_reporting
invalidate=0
directory=/mnt/
file_service_type=random:36
file_service_type=random:36
[job0]
startdelay=0
rw=randrw
filename=data0/f1:data0/f2
[job1]
startdelay=0
rw=randrw
filename=data0/f2:data0/f1
...
[job7]
startdelay=0
rw=randrw
filename=data0/f2:data0/f1
The culprit of the problem is that after the commit ext4_writepages()
are more aggressive in writing back pages. Thus we have less consecutive
dirty pages resulting in more seeking.
This increased aggressivity is caused by a bug in the condition
terminating ext4_writepages(). We start writing from the beginning of
the file even if we should have terminated ext4_writepages() because
wbc->nr_to_write <= 0.
After fixing the condition the throughput of the fio workload is about 20%
better than before writeback reorganization.

Convert the filesystem shrinkers to use the new API, and standardise some
of the behaviours of the shrinkers at the same time. For example,
nr_to_scan means the number of objects to scan, not the number of objects
to free.
I refactored the CIFS idmap shrinker a little - it really needs to be
broken up into a shrinker per tree and keep an item count with the tree
root so that we don't need to walk the tree every time the shrinker needs
to count the number of objects in the tree (i.e. all the time under
memory pressure).

Call generic_write_sync() from the deferred I/O completion handler if
O_DSYNC is set for a write request. Also make sure various callers
don't call generic_write_sync if the direct I/O code returns
-EIOCBQUEUED.

Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user
context using a workqueue. This replaces opencoded and less efficient
code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO)
and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO.
The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires
a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the
direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating
with the filesystems.
Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these
completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm
not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global
workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion.
JK: Fixed ext4 part, dynamic allocation of the workqueue.

It's always been a hassle that if an external journal's
device number changes, the filesystem won't mount.
And since boot-time enumeration can change, device number
changes aren't unusual.
The current mechanism to update the journal location is by
passing in a mount option w/ a new devnum, but that's a hassle;
it's a manual approach, fixing things after the fact.
Adding a mount option, "-o journal_path=/dev/$DEVICE" would
help, since then we can do i.e.
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/$JOURNAL_LABEL ...
and it'll mount even if the devnum has changed, as shown here:
# losetup /dev/loop0 journalfile
# mke2fs -L mylabel-journal -O journal_dev /dev/loop0
# mkfs.ext4 -L mylabel -J device=/dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1
Change the journal device number:
# losetup -d /dev/loop0
# losetup /dev/loop1 journalfile
And today it will fail:
# mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
# dmesg | tail -n 1
[17343.240702] EXT4-fs (sdb1): error: couldn't read superblock of external journal
But with this new mount option, we can specify the new path:
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/loop1 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
#
(which does update the encoded device number, incidentally):
# umount /dev/sdb1
# dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdb1 | grep "Journal device"
dumpe2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Journal device: 0x0701
But best of all we can just always mount by journal-path, and
it'll always work:
# mount -o journal_path=/dev/disk/by-label/mylabel-journal /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test
#
So the journal_path option can be specified in fstab, and as long as
the disk is available somewhere, and findable by label (or by UUID),
we can mount.

If the group descriptor fails validation, mark the whole blockgroup
corrupt so that the inode/block allocators skip this group. The
previous approach takes the risk of writing to a damaged group
descriptor; hopefully it was never the case that the [ib]bitmap fields
pointed to another valid block and got dirtied, since the memset would
fill the page with 1s.
