A number of functions include ext4_add_dx_entry, make_indexed_dir, etc. are being passed a dentry even though the only thing they use is the containing parent. We can shrink the code size slightly by making this replacement. This will also be useful in cases where we don't have a dentry as the argument to the directory entry insert functions.

When dioread_nolock mode is enabled, we grab i_data_sem in ext4_ext_direct_IO() and therefore we need to instruct _ext4_get_block() not to grab i_data_sem again using EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_LOCK. However holding i_data_sem over overwrite direct IO isn't needed these days. We have exclusion against truncate / hole punching because we increase i_dio_count under i_mutex in ext4_ext_direct_IO() so once ext4_file_write_iter() verifies blocks are allocated & written, they are guaranteed to stay so during the whole direct IO even after we drop i_mutex. So we can just remove this locking abuse and the no longer necessary EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_LOCK flag. Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NTheodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

When doing delayed allocation, update of on-disk inode size is postponed until IO submission time. However hole punch or zero range fallocate calls can end up discarding the tail page cache page and thus on-disk inode size would never be properly updated.

Current code implementing FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE is prone to races with buffered writes and page faults. If buffered write or write via mmap manages to squeeze between filemap_write_and_wait_range() and truncate_pagecache() in the fallocate implementations, the written data is simply discarded by truncate_pagecache() although it should have been shifted. Fix the problem by moving filemap_write_and_wait_range() call inside i_mutex and i_mmap_sem. That way we are protected against races with both buffered writes and page faults.

Currently ext4_alloc_file_blocks() was handling protection against unlocked DIO. However we now need to sometimes call it under i_mmap_sem and sometimes not and DIO protection ranks above it (although strictly speaking this cannot currently create any deadlocks). Also ext4_zero_range() was actually getting & releasing unlocked DIO protection twice in some cases. Luckily it didn't introduce any real bug but it was a land mine waiting to be stepped on. So move DIO protection out from ext4_alloc_file_blocks() into the two callsites. Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NTheodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Currently, page faults and hole punching are completely unsynchronized. This can result in page fault faulting in a page into a range that we are punching after truncate_pagecache_range() has been called and thus we can end up with a page mapped to disk blocks that will be shortly freed. Filesystem corruption will shortly follow. Note that the same race is avoided for truncate by checking page fault offset against i_size but there isn't similar mechanism available for punching holes. Fix the problem by creating new rw semaphore i_mmap_sem in inode and grab it for writing over truncate, hole punching, and other functions removing blocks from extent tree and for read over page faults. We cannot easily use i_data_sem for this since that ranks below transaction start and we need something ranking above it so that it can be held over the whole truncate / hole punching operation. Also remove various workarounds we had in the code to reduce race window when page fault could have created pages with stale mapping information.

In ext4, the bottom two bits of {a,c,m}time_extra are used to extend the {a,c,m}time fields, deferring the year 2038 problem to the year 2446. When decoding these extended fields, for times whose bottom 32 bits would represent a negative number, sign extension causes the 64-bit extended timestamp to be negative as well, which is not what's intended. This patch corrects that issue, so that the only negative {a,c,m}times are those between 1901 and 1970 (as per 32-bit signed timestamps). Some older kernels might have written pre-1970 dates with 1,1 in the extra bits. This patch treats those incorrectly-encoded dates as pre-1970, instead of post-2311, until kernel 4.20 is released. Hopefully by then e2fsck will have fixed up the bad data. Also add a comment explaining the encoding of ext4's extra {a,c,m}time bits.

mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve". Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic reserves. This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic, cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use __GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake kswapd for background reclaim. This patch then converts a number of sites o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag. o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress. o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to flag manipulations. o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons. In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH. The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

If a EXT4 filesystem utilizes JBD2 journaling and an error occurs, the journaling will be aborted first and the error number will be recorded into JBD2 superblock and, finally, the system will enter into the panic state in "errors=panic" option. But, in the rare case, this sequence is little twisted like the below figure and it will happen that the system enters into panic state, which means the system reset in mobile environment, before completion of recording an error in the journal superblock. In this case, e2fsck cannot recognize that the filesystem failure occurred in the previous run and the corruption wouldn't be fixed.

Commit 6afdb859 ("mm: do not ignore mapping_gfp_mask in page cache allocation paths") has caught some users of hardcoded GFP_KERNEL used in the page cache allocation paths. This, however, wasn't complete and there were others which went unnoticed. Dave Chinner has reported the following deadlock for xfs on loop device: : With the recent merge of the loop device changes, I'm now seeing : XFS deadlock on my single CPU, 1GB RAM VM running xfs/073. : : The deadlocked is as follows: : : kloopd1: loop_queue_read_work : xfs_file_iter_read : lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_SHARED (on image file) : page cache read (GFP_KERNEL) : radix tree alloc : memory reclaim : reclaim XFS inodes : log force to unpin inodes : <wait for log IO completion> : : xfs-cil/loop1: <does log force IO work> : xlog_cil_push : xlog_write : <loop issuing log writes> : xlog_state_get_iclog_space() : <blocks due to all log buffers under write io> : <waits for IO completion> : : kloopd1: loop_queue_write_work : xfs_file_write_iter : lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL (on image file) : <wait for inode to be unlocked> : : i.e. the kloopd, with it's split read and write work queues, has : introduced a dependency through memory reclaim. i.e. that writes : need to be able to progress for reads make progress. : : The problem, fundamentally, is that mpage_readpages() does a : GFP_KERNEL allocation, rather than paying attention to the inode's : mapping gfp mask, which is set to GFP_NOFS. : : The didn't used to happen, because the loop device used to issue : reads through the splice path and that does: : : error = add_to_page_cache_lru(page, mapping, index, : GFP_KERNEL & mapping_gfp_mask(mapping)); This has changed by commit aa4d8616 ("block: loop: switch to VFS ITER_BVEC"). This patch changes mpage_readpage{s} to follow gfp mask set for the mapping. There are, however, other places which are doing basically the same. lustre:ll_dir_filler is doing GFP_KERNEL from the function which apparently uses GFP_NOFS for other allocations so let's make this consistent. cifs:readpages_get_pages is called from cifs_readpages and __cifs_readpages_from_fscache called from the same path obeys mapping gfp. ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping is hardcoding GFP_KERNEL as well regardless it uses mapping_gfp_mask for the page allocation. ext4_mpage_readpages is the called from the page cache allocation path same as read_pages and read_cache_pages As I've noticed in my previous post I cannot say I would be happy about sprinkling mapping_gfp_mask all over the place and it sounds like we should drop gfp_mask argument altogether and use it internally in __add_to_page_cache_locked that would require all the filesystems to use mapping gfp consistently which I am not sure is the case here. From a quick glance it seems that some file system use it all the time while others are selective.

If there is a error while copying data from userspace into the page cache during a write(2) system call, in data=journal mode, in ext4_journalled_write_end() were using page_zero_new_buffers() from fs/buffer.c. Unfortunately, this sets the buffer dirty flag, which is no good if journalling is enabled. This is a long-standing bug that goes back for years and years in ext3, but a combination of (a) data=journal not being very common, (b) in many case it only results in a warning message. and (c) only very rarely causes the kernel hang, means that we only really noticed this as a problem when commit 998ef75d caused this failure to happen frequently enough to cause generic/208 to fail when run in data=journal mode. The fix is to have our own version of this function that doesn't call mark_dirty_buffer(), since we will end up calling ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() on the buffer head(s) in questions very shortly afterwards in ext4_journalled_write_end().

Fix multiple bugs in ext4_encrypted_zeroout(), including one that could cause us to write an encrypted zero page to the wrong location on disk, potentially causing data and file system corruption. Fortunately, this tends to only show up in stress tests, but even with these fixes, we are seeing some test failures with generic/127 --- but these are now caused by data failures instead of metadata corruption. Since ext4_encrypted_zeroout() is only used for some optimizations to keep the extent tree from being too fragmented, and ext4_encrypted_zeroout() itself isn't all that optimized from a time or IOPS perspective, disable the extent tree optimization for encrypted inodes for now. This prevents the data corruption issues reported by generic/127 until we can figure out what's going wrong. Signed-off-by: NTheodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
