2009-07-02jbd: fix race in buffer processing in commit codeJan Kara
commit a61d90d75d0f9e86432c45b496b4b0fbf0fd03dc upstream. In commit code, we scan buffers attached to a transaction. During this scan, we sometimes have to drop j_list_lock and then we recheck whether the journal buffer head didn't get freed by journal_try_to_free_buffers(). But checking for buffer_jbd(bh) isn't enough because a new journal head could get attached to our buffer head. So add a check whether the journal head remained the same and whether it's still at the same transaction and list. This is a nasty bug and can cause problems like memory corruption (use after free) or trigger various assertions in JBD code (observed).

2009-06-11ext4: Fix race in ext4_inode_info.i_cached_extentTheodore Ts'o
(cherry picked from commit 2ec0ae3acec47f628179ee95fe2c4da01b5e9fc4) If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same time, there is nothing protecting the i_cached_extent structure from being used and updated at the same time. This could potentially cause the wrong location on disk to be read or written to, including potentially causing the corruption of the block group descriptors and/or inode table. This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of ext4's development. Fortunately once the data is stored in the page cache cache, ext4_get_blocks() doesn't need to be called, so trying to replicate this problem to the point where we could identify its root cause was *extremely* difficult. Many thanks to Kevin Shanahan for working over several months to be able to reproduce this easily so we could finally nail down the cause of the corruption.

2009-06-11ext4: Clear the unwritten buffer_head flag after the extent is initializedAneesh Kumar K.V
(cherry picked from commit 2a8964d63d50dd2d65d71d342bc7fb6ef4117614) The BH_Unwritten flag indicates that the buffer is allocated on disk but has not been written; that is, the disk was part of a persistent preallocation area. That flag should only be set when a get_blocks() function is looking up a inode's logical to physical block mapping. When ext4_get_blocks_wrap() is called with create=1, the uninitialized extent is converted into an initialized one, so the BH_Unwritten flag is no longer appropriate. Hence, we need to make sure the BH_Unwritten is not left set, since the combination of BH_Mapped and BH_Unwritten is not allowed; among other things, it will result ext4's get_block() to be called over and over again during the write_begin phase of write(2).

(cherry picked from commit 9c1ee184a30394e54165fa4c15923cabd952c106) We need to mark the buffer_head mapping preallocated space as new during write_begin. Otherwise we don't zero out the page cache content properly for a partial write. This will cause file corruption with preallocation. Now that we mark the buffer_head new we also need to have a valid buffer_head blocknr so that unmap_underlying_metadata() unmaps the correct block.

2009-06-11ext4: Fix softlockup caused by illegal i_file_acl value in on-disk inodeTheodore Ts'o
(cherry picked from commit 485c26ec70f823f2a9cf45982b724893e53a859e) If the block containing external extended attributes (which is stored in i_file_acl and i_file_acl_high) is larger than the on-disk filesystem, the process which tried to access the extended attributes will endlessly issue kernel printks complaining that "__find_get_block_slow() failed", locking up that CPU until the system is forcibly rebooted. So when we read in the inode, make sure the i_file_acl value is legal, and if not, flag the filesystem as being corrupted.

2009-06-11ext4: return -EIO not -ESTALE on directory traversal through deleted inodeBryan Donlan
(cherry picked from commit e6f009b0b45220c004672d41a58865e94946104d) ext4_iget() returns -ESTALE if invoked on a deleted inode, in order to report errors to NFS properly. However, in ext4_lookup(), this -ESTALE can be propagated to userspace if the filesystem is corrupted such that a directory entry references a deleted inode. This leads to a misleading error message - "Stale NFS file handle" - and confusion on the part of the admin. The bug can be easily reproduced by creating a new filesystem, making a link to an unused inode using debugfs, then mounting and attempting to ls -l said link. This patch thus changes ext4_lookup to return -EIO if it receives -ESTALE from ext4_iget(), as ext4 does for other filesystem metadata corruption; and also invokes the appropriate ext*_error functions when this case is detected.

(cherry picked from commit 2dc6b0d48ca0599837df21b14bb8393d0804af57) At the moment there are few restrictions on which flags may be set on which inodes. Specifically DIRSYNC may only be set on directories and IMMUTABLE and APPEND may not be set on links. Tighten that to disallow TOPDIR being set on non-directories and only NODUMP and NOATIME to be set on non-regular file, non-directories. Introduces a flags masking function which masks flags based on mode and use it during inode creation and when flags are set via the ioctl to facilitate future consistency.

2009-06-11ext4: fix bb_prealloc_list corruption due to wrong group lockingEric Sandeen
(cherry-picked from commit d33a1976fbee1ee321d6f014333d8f03a39d526c) This is for Red Hat bug 490026: EXT4 panic, list corruption in ext4_mb_new_inode_pa ext4_lock_group(sb, group) is supposed to protect this list for each group, and a common code flow to remove an album is like this: ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(sb, pa->pa_pstart, &grp, NULL); ext4_lock_group(sb, grp); list_del(&pa->pa_group_list); ext4_unlock_group(sb, grp); so it's critical that we get the right group number back for this prealloc context, to lock the right group (the one associated with this pa) and prevent concurrent list manipulation. however, ext4_mb_put_pa() passes in (pa->pa_pstart - 1) with a comment, "-1 is to protect from crossing allocation group". This makes sense for the group_pa, where pa_pstart is advanced by the length which has been used (in ext4_mb_release_context()), and when the entire length has been used, pa_pstart has been advanced to the first block of the next group. However, for inode_pa, pa_pstart is never advanced; it's just set once to the first block in the group and not moved after that. So in this case, if we subtract one in ext4_mb_put_pa(), we are actually locking the *previous* group, and opening the race with the other threads which do not subtract off the extra block.

2009-06-11ext4: fix header check in ext4_ext_search_right() for deep extent trees.Eric Sandeen
(cherry picked from commit 395a87bfefbc400011417e9eaae33169f9f036c0) The ext4_ext_search_right() function is confusing; it uses a "depth" variable which is 0 at the root and maximum at the leaves, but the on-disk metadata uses a "depth" (actually eh_depth) which is opposite: maximum at the root, and 0 at the leaves. The ext4_ext_check_header() function is given a depth and checks the header agaisnt that depth; it expects the on-disk semantics, but we are giving it the opposite in the while loop in this function. We should be giving it the on-disk notion of "depth" which we can get from (p_depth - depth) - and if you look, the last (more commonly hit) call to ext4_ext_check_header() does just this. Sending in the wrong depth results in (incorrect) messages about corruption: EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_search_right: bad header in inode #2621457: unexpected eh_depth - magic f30a, entries 340, max 340(0), depth 1(2) http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12821 Reported-by: David Dindorp <ddi@dubex.dk> Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

(cherry picked from commit 7ce9d5d1f3c8736511daa413c64985a05b2feee3) I was seeing fsck errors on inode bitmaps after a 4 thread dbench run on a 4 cpu machine: Inode bitmap differences: -50736 -(50752--50753) etc... I believe that this is because ext4_free_inode() uses atomic bitops, and although ext4_new_inode() *used* to also use atomic bitops for synchronization, commit 393418676a7602e1d7d3f6e560159c65c8cbd50e changed this to use the sb_bgl_lock, so that we could also synchronize against read_inode_bitmap and initialization of uninit inode tables. However, that change left ext4_free_inode using atomic bitops, which I think leaves no synchronization between setting & unsetting bits in the inode table. The below patch fixes it for me, although I wonder if we're getting at all heavy-handed with this spinlock...

commit 27b87fe52baba0a55e9723030e76fce94fabcea4 refreshed. cifs: fix unicode string area word alignment in session setup The handling of unicode string area alignment is wrong. decode_unicode_ssetup improperly assumes that it will always be preceded by a pad byte. This isn't the case if the string area is already word-aligned. This problem, combined with the bad buffer sizing for the serverDomain string can cause memory corruption. The bad alignment can make it so that the alignment of the characters is off. This can make them translate to characters that are greater than 2 bytes each. If this happens we can overflow the allocation. Fix this by fixing the alignment in CIFS_SessSetup instead so we can verify it against the head of the response. Also, clean up the workaround for improperly terminated strings by checking for a odd-length unicode buffers and then forcibly terminating them. Finally, resize the buffer for serverDomain. Now that we've fixed the alignment, it's probably fine, but a malicious server could overflow it. A better solution for handling these strings is still needed, but this should be a suitable bandaid.

2009-05-19mm: close page_mkwrite racesNick Piggin
commit b827e496c893de0c0f142abfaeb8730a2fd6b37f upstream mm: close page_mkwrite races Change page_mkwrite to allow implementations to return with the page locked, and also change it's callers (in page fault paths) to hold the lock until the page is marked dirty. This allows the filesystem to have full control of page dirtying events coming from the VM. Rather than simply hold the page locked over the page_mkwrite call, we call page_mkwrite with the page unlocked and allow callers to return with it locked, so filesystems can avoid LOR conditions with page lock. The problem with the current scheme is this: a filesystem that wants to associate some metadata with a page as long as the page is dirty, will perform this manipulation in its ->page_mkwrite. It currently then must return with the page unlocked and may not hold any other locks (according to existing page_mkwrite convention). In this window, the VM could write out the page, clearing page-dirty. The filesystem has no good way to detect that a dirty pte is about to be attached, so it will happily write out the page, at which point, the filesystem may manipulate the metadata to reflect that the page is no longer dirty. It is not always possible to perform the required metadata manipulation in ->set_page_dirty, because that function cannot block or fail. The filesystem may need to allocate some data structure, for example. And the VM cannot mark the pte dirty before page_mkwrite, because page_mkwrite is allowed to fail, so we must not allow any window where the page could be written to if page_mkwrite does fail. This solution of holding the page locked over the 3 critical operations (page_mkwrite, setting the pte dirty, and finally setting the page dirty) closes out races nicely, preventing page cleaning for writeout being initiated in that window. This provides the filesystem with a strong synchronisation against the VM here. - Sage needs this race closed for ceph filesystem. - Trond for NFS (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12913). - I need it for fsblock. - I suspect other filesystems may need it too (eg. btrfs). - I have converted buffer.c to the new locking. Even simple block allocation under dirty pages might be susceptible to i_size changing under partial page at the end of file (we also have a buffer.c-side problem here, but it cannot be fixed properly without this patch). - Other filesystems (eg. NFS, maybe btrfs) will need to change their page_mkwrite functions themselves. [ This also moves page_mkwrite another step closer to fault, which should eventually allow page_mkwrite to be moved into ->fault, and thus avoiding a filesystem calldown and page lock/unlock cycle in __do_fault. ] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix derefs of NULL ->mapping] Cc: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net> Cc: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@fys.uio.no> Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Valdis Kletnieks <Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2009-05-19fs: fix page_mkwrite error cases in core code and btrfsNick Piggin
commit 56a76f8275c379ed73c8a43cfa1dfa2f5e9cfa19 upstream fs: fix page_mkwrite error cases in core code and btrfs page_mkwrite is called with neither the page lock nor the ptl held. This means a page can be concurrently truncated or invalidated out from underneath it. Callers are supposed to prevent truncate races themselves, however previously the only thing they can do in case they hit one is to raise a SIGBUS. A sigbus is wrong for the case that the page has been invalidated or truncated within i_size (eg. hole punched). Callers may also have to perform memory allocations in this path, where again, SIGBUS would be wrong. The previous patch ("mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault") made it possible to properly specify errors. Convert the generic buffer.c code and btrfs to return sane error values (in the case of page removed from pagecache, VM_FAULT_NOPAGE will cause the fault handler to exit without doing anything, and the fault will be retried properly). This fixes core code, and converts btrfs as a template/example. All other filesystems defining their own page_mkwrite should be fixed in a similar manner.

There should be no functional change. This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to the VM (and also can provide more information eg. virtual_address to the driver, which might be important in some special cases). This is required for a subsequent fix. And will also make it easier to merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

commit f83ce3e6b02d5e48b3a43b001390e2b58820389d upstream. By using the same test as is used for /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps, only allow processes that can ptrace() a given process to see information that might be used to bypass address space layout randomization (ASLR). These include eip, esp, wchan, and start_stack in /proc/pid/stat as well as the non-symbolic output from /proc/pid/wchan. ASLR can be bypassed by sampling eip as shown by the proof-of-concept code at http://code.google.com/p/fuzzyaslr/ As part of a presentation (http://www.cr0.org/paper/to-jt-linux-alsr-leak.pdf) esp and wchan were also noted as possibly usable information leaks as well. The start_stack address also leaks potentially useful information.

commit 78f707bfc723552e8309b7c38a8d0cc51012e813 upstream. The above commit added WRITE_SYNC and switched various places to using that for committing writes that will be waited upon immediately after submission. However, this causes a performance regression with AS and CFQ for ext3 at least, since sync_dirty_buffer() will submit some writes with WRITE_SYNC while ext3 has sumitted others dependent writes without the sync flag set. This causes excessive anticipation/idling in the IO scheduler because sync and async writes get interleaved, causing a big performance regression for the below test case (which is meant to simulate sqlite like behaviour). ---- test case ---- int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fdes, i; FILE *fp; struct timeval start; struct timeval end; struct timeval res; gettimeofday(&start, NULL); for (i=0; i<ROWS; i++) { fp = fopen("test_file", "a"); fprintf(fp, "Some Text Data\n"); fdes = fileno(fp); fsync(fdes); fclose(fp); } gettimeofday(&end, NULL); timersub(&end, &start, &res); fprintf(stdout, "time to write %d lines is %ld(msec)\n", ROWS, (res.tv_sec*1000000 + res.tv_usec)/1000); return 0; } ------------------- Thanks to Sean.White@APCC.com for tracking down this performance regression and providing a test case.

upstream commit: 7bfac9ecf0585962fe13584f5cf526d8c8e76f17 There's a possible deadlock in generic_file_splice_write(), splice_from_pipe() and ocfs2_file_splice_write(): - task A calls generic_file_splice_write() - this calls inode_double_lock(), which locks i_mutex on both pipe->inode and target inode - ordering depends on inode pointers, can happen that pipe->inode is locked first - __splice_from_pipe() needs more data, calls pipe_wait() - this releases lock on pipe->inode, goes to interruptible sleep - task B calls generic_file_splice_write(), similarly to the first - this locks pipe->inode, then tries to lock inode, but that is already held by task A - task A is interrupted, it tries to lock pipe->inode, but fails, as it is already held by task B - ABBA deadlock Fix this by explicitly ordering locks: the outer lock must be on target inode and the inner lock (which is later unlocked and relocked) must be on pipe->inode. This is OK, pipe inodes and target inodes form two nonoverlapping sets, generic_file_splice_write() and friends are not called with a target which is a pipe.
