[Issue] Currently, a variable name, which is used to identify each log entry, consists of type, id and ctime. But an erase callback does not use ctime. If efi_pstore supported just one log, type and id were enough. However, in case of supporting multiple logs, it doesn't work because it can't distinguish each entry without ctime at erasing time. <Example> As you can see below, efi_pstore can't differentiate first event from second one without ctime. a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-23456789 type:0 id:1 ctime:12345678, 23456789 [Solution] This patch adds ctime to an argument of an erase callback. It works across reboots because ctime of pstore means the date that the record was originally stored. To do this, efi_pstore saves the ctime to variable name at writing time and passes it to pstore at reading time.

Error handling in xfs_buf_ioapply_map() does not handle IO reference counts correctly. We increment the b_io_remaining count before building the bio, but then fail to decrement it in the failure case. This leads to the buffer never running IO completion and releasing the reference that the IO holds, so at unmount we can leak the buffer. This leak is captured by this assert failure during unmount: XFS: Assertion failed: atomic_read(&pag->pag_ref) == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c, line: 273 This is not a new bug - the b_io_remaining accounting has had this problem for a long, long time - it's just very hard to get a zero length bio being built by this code... Further, the buffer IO error can be overwritten on a multi-segment buffer by subsequent bio completions for partial sections of the buffer. Hence we should only set the buffer error status if the buffer is not already carrying an error status. This ensures that a partial IO error on a multi-segment buffer will not be lost. This part of the problem is a regression, however. cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NDave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: NMark Tinguely <tinguely@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: NBen Myers <bpm@sgi.com>

When we shut down the filesystem, it might first be detected in writeback when we are allocating a inode size transaction. This happens after we have moved all the pages into the writeback state and unlocked them. Unfortunately, if we fail to set up the transaction we then abort writeback and try to invalidate the current page. This then triggers are BUG() in block_invalidatepage() because we are trying to invalidate an unlocked page. Fixing this is a bit of a chicken and egg problem - we can't allocate the transaction until we've clustered all the pages into the IO and we know the size of it (i.e. whether the last block of the IO is beyond the current EOF or not). However, we don't want to hold pages locked for long periods of time, especially while we lock other pages to cluster them into the write. To fix this, we need to make a clear delineation in writeback where errors can only be handled by IO completion processing. That is, once we have marked a page for writeback and unlocked it, we have to report errors via IO completion because we've already started the IO. We may not have submitted any IO, but we've changed the page state to indicate that it is under IO so we must now use the IO completion path to report errors. To do this, add an error field to xfs_submit_ioend() to pass it the error that occurred during the building on the ioend chain. When this is non-zero, mark each ioend with the error and call xfs_finish_ioend() directly rather than building bios. This will immediately push the ioends through completion processing with the error that has occurred.

In certain circumstances, a double split of an attribute tree is needed to insert or replace an attribute. In rare situations, this can go wrong, leaving the attribute tree corrupted. In this case, the attr being replaced is the last attr in a leaf node, and the replacement is larger so doesn't fit in the same leaf node. When we have the initial condition of a node format attribute btree with two leaves at index 1 and 2. Call them L1 and L2. The leaf L1 is completely full, there is not a single byte of free space in it. L2 is mostly empty. The attribute being replaced - call it X - is the last attribute in L1. The way an attribute replace is executed is that the replacement attribute - call it Y - is first inserted into the tree, but has an INCOMPLETE flag set on it so that list traversals ignore it. Once this transaction is committed, a second transaction it run to atomically mark Y as COMPLETE and X as INCOMPLETE, so that a traversal will now find Y and skip X. Once that transaction is committed, attribute X is then removed. So, the initial condition is: +--------+ +--------+ | L1 | | L2 | | fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 | | bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 | | fsp: 0 | | fsp: N | |--------| |--------| | attr A | | attr 1 | |--------| |--------| | attr B | | attr 2 | |--------| |--------| .......... .......... |--------| |--------| | attr X | | attr n | +--------+ +--------+ So now we go to replace X, and see that L1:fsp = 0 - it is full so we can't insert Y in the same leaf. So we record the the location of attribute X so we can track it for later use, then we split L1 into L1 and L3 and reblance across the two leafs. We end with: +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ | L1 | | L3 | | L2 | | fwd: 3 |---->| fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 | | bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 |<----| bwd: 3 | | fsp: M | | fsp: J | | fsp: N | |--------| |--------| |--------| | attr A | | attr X | | attr 1 | |--------| +--------+ |--------| | attr B | | attr 2 | |--------| |--------| .......... .......... |--------| |--------| | attr W | | attr n | +--------+ +--------+ And we track that the original attribute is now at L3:0. We then try to insert Y into L1 again, and find that there isn't enough room because the new attribute is larger than the old one. Hence we have to split again to make room for Y. We end up with this: +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ | L1 | | L4 | | L3 | | L2 | | fwd: 4 |---->| fwd: 3 |---->| fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 | | bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 |<----| bwd: 4 |<----| bwd: 3 | | fsp: M | | fsp: J | | fsp: J | | fsp: N | |--------| |--------| |--------| |--------| | attr A | | attr Y | | attr X | | attr 1 | |--------| + INCOMP + +--------+ |--------| | attr B | +--------+ | attr 2 | |--------| |--------| .......... .......... |--------| |--------| | attr W | | attr n | +--------+ +--------+ And now we have the new (incomplete) attribute @ L4:0, and the original attribute at L3:0. At this point, the first transaction is committed, and we move to the flipping of the flags. This is where we are supposed to end up with this: +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ | L1 | | L4 | | L3 | | L2 | | fwd: 4 |---->| fwd: 3 |---->| fwd: 2 |---->| fwd: 0 | | bwd: 0 |<----| bwd: 1 |<----| bwd: 4 |<----| bwd: 3 | | fsp: M | | fsp: J | | fsp: J | | fsp: N | |--------| |--------| |--------| |--------| | attr A | | attr Y | | attr X | | attr 1 | |--------| +--------+ + INCOMP + |--------| | attr B | +--------+ | attr 2 | |--------| |--------| .......... .......... |--------| |--------| | attr W | | attr n | +--------+ +--------+ But that doesn't happen properly - the attribute tracking indexes are not pointing to the right locations. What we end up with is both the old attribute to be removed pointing at L4:0 and the new attribute at L4:1. On a debug kernel, this assert fails like so: XFS: Assertion failed: args->index2 < be16_to_cpu(leaf2->hdr.count), file: fs/xfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c, line: 2725 because the new attribute location does not exist. On a production kernel, this goes unnoticed and the code proceeds ahead merrily and removes L4 because it thinks that is the block that is no longer needed. This leaves the hash index node pointing to entries L1, L4 and L2, but only blocks L1, L3 and L2 to exist. Further, the leaf level sibling list is L1 <-> L4 <-> L2, but L4 is now free space, and so everything is busted. This corruption is caused by the removal of the old attribute triggering a join - it joins everything correctly but then frees the wrong block. xfs_repair will report something like: bad sibling back pointer for block 4 in attribute fork for inode 131 problem with attribute contents in inode 131 would clear attr fork bad nblocks 8 for inode 131, would reset to 3 bad anextents 4 for inode 131, would reset to 0 The problem lies in the assignment of the old/new blocks for tracking purposes when the double leaf split occurs. The first split tries to place the new attribute inside the current leaf (i.e. "inleaf == true") and moves the old attribute (X) to the new block. This sets up the old block/index to L1:X, and newly allocated block to L3:0. It then moves attr X to the new block and tries to insert attr Y at the old index. That fails, so it splits again. With the second split, the rebalance ends up placing the new attr in the second new block - L4:0 - and this is where the code goes wrong. What is does is it sets both the new and old block index to the second new block. Hence it inserts attr Y at the right place (L4:0) but overwrites the current location of the attr to replace that is held in the new block index (currently L3:0). It over writes it with L4:1 - the index we later assert fail on. Hopefully this table will show this in a foramt that is a bit easier to understand: Split old attr index new attr index vanilla patched vanilla patched before 1st L1:26 L1:26 N/A N/A after 1st L3:0 L3:0 L1:26 L1:26 after 2nd L4:0 L3:0 L4:1 L4:0 ^^^^ ^^^^ wrong wrong The fix is surprisingly simple, for all this analysis - just stop the rebalance on the out-of leaf case from overwriting the new attr index - it's already correct for the double split case.

The second part of the log buffer at the start of the physical log was being read into the header buffer rather than the data buffer, and hence recovery was seeing garbage in the data buffer when it got to the region of the log buffer that was incorrectly read.

When we shut down the filesystem, we have to unpin and free all the buffers currently active in the CIL. To do this we unpin and remove them in one operation as a result of a failed iclogbuf write. For buffers, we do this removal via a simultated IO completion of after marking the buffer stale. At the time we do this, we have two references to the buffer - the active LRU reference and the buf log item. The LRU reference is removed by marking the buffer stale, and the active CIL reference is by the xfs_buf_iodone() callback that is run by xfs_buf_do_callbacks() during ioend processing (via the bp->b_iodone callback). However, ioend processing requires one more reference - that of the IO that it is completing. We don't have this reference, so we free the buffer prematurely and use it after it is freed. For buffers marked with XBF_ASYNC, this leads to assert failures in xfs_buf_rele() on debug kernels because the b_hold count is zero. Fix this by making sure we take the necessary IO reference before starting IO completion processing on the stale buffer, and set the XBF_ASYNC flag to ensure that IO completion processing removes all the active references from the buffer to ensure it is fully torn down.

When we free a block from the alloc btree tree, we move it to the freelist held in the AGFL and mark it busy in the busy extent tree. This typically happens when we merge btree blocks. Once the transaction is committed and checkpointed, the block can remain on the free list for an indefinite amount of time. Now, this isn't the end of the world at this point - if the free list is shortened, the buffer is invalidated in the transaction that moves it back to free space. If the buffer is allocated as metadata from the free list, then all the modifications getted logged, and we have no issues, either. And if it gets allocated as userdata direct from the freelist, it gets invalidated and so will never get written. However, during the time it sits on the free list, pressure on the log can cause the AIL to be pushed and the buffer that covers the block gets pushed for write. IOWs, we end up writing a freed metadata block to disk. Again, this isn't the end of the world because we know from the above we are only writing to free space. The problem, however, is for validation callbacks. If the block was on old btree root block, then the level of the block is going to be higher than the current tree root, and so will fail validation. There may be other inconsistencies in the block as well, and currently we don't care because the block is in free space. Shutting down the filesystem because a freed block doesn't pass write validation, OTOH, is rather unfriendly. So, make sure we always invalidate buffers as they move from the free space trees to the free list so that we guarantee they never get written to disk while on the free list.

Switching stacks are xfs_alloc_vextent can cause deadlocks when we run out of worker threads on the allocation workqueue. This can occur because xfs_bmap_btalloc can make multiple calls to xfs_alloc_vextent() and even if xfs_alloc_vextent() fails it can return with the AGF locked in the current allocation transaction. If we then need to make another allocation, and all the allocation worker contexts are exhausted because the are blocked waiting for the AGF lock, holder of the AGF cannot get it's xfs-alloc_vextent work completed to release the AGF. Hence allocation effectively deadlocks. To avoid this, move the stack switch one layer up to xfs_bmapi_allocate() so that all of the allocation attempts in a single switched stack transaction occur in a single worker context. This avoids the problem of an allocation being blocked waiting for a worker thread whilst holding the AGF.

Certain allocation paths through xfs_bmapi_write() are in situations where we have limited stack available. These are almost always in the buffered IO writeback path when convertion delayed allocation extents to real extents. The current stack switch occurs for userdata allocations, which means we also do stack switches for preallocation, direct IO and unwritten extent conversion, even those these call chains have never been implicated in a stack overrun. Hence, let's target just the single stack overun offended for stack switches. To do that, introduce a XFS_BMAPI_STACK_SWITCH flag that the caller can pass xfs_bmapi_write() to indicate it should switch stacks if it needs to do allocation.

The log write code stamps each iclog with the current tail LSN in the iclog header so that recovery knows where to find the tail of thelog once it has found the head. Normally this is taken from the first item on the AIL - the log item that corresponds to the oldest active item in the log. The problem is that when the AIL is empty, the tail lsn is dervied from the the l_last_sync_lsn, which is the LSN of the last iclog to be written to the log. In most cases this doesn't happen, because the AIL is rarely empty on an active filesystem. However, when it does, it opens up an interesting case when the transaction being committed to the iclog spans multiple iclogs. That is, the first iclog is stamped with the l_last_sync_lsn, and IO is issued. Then the next iclog is setup, the changes copied into the iclog (takes some time), and then the l_last_sync_lsn is stamped into the header and IO is issued. This is still the same transaction, so the tail lsn of both iclogs must be the same for log recovery to find the entire transaction to be able to replay it. The problem arises in that the iclog buffer IO completion updates the l_last_sync_lsn with it's own LSN. Therefore, If the first iclog completes it's IO before the second iclog is filled and has the tail lsn stamped in it, it will stamp the LSN of the first iclog into it's tail lsn field. If the system fails at this point, log recovery will not see a complete transaction, so the transaction will no be replayed. The fix is simple - the l_last_sync_lsn is updated when a iclog buffer IO completes, and this is incorrect. The l_last_sync_lsn shoul dbe updated when a transaction is completed by a iclog buffer IO. That is, only iclog buffers that have transaction commit callbacks attached to them should update the l_last_sync_lsn. This means that the last_sync_lsn will only move forward when a commit record it written, not in the middle of a large transaction that is rolling through multiple iclog buffers.

In gfs2_trans_add_bh(), gfs2 was testing if a there was a bd attached to the buffer without having the gfs2_log_lock held. It was then assuming it would stay attached for the rest of the function. However, without either the log lock being held of the buffer locked, __gfs2_ail_flush() could detach bd at any time. This patch moves the locking before the test. If there isn't a bd already attached, gfs2 can safely allocate one and attach it before locking. There is no way that the newly allocated bd could be on the ail list, and thus no way for __gfs2_ail_flush() to detach it.

file_accessed() was being called by gfs2_mmap() with a shared glock. If it needed to update the atime, it was crashing because it dirtied the inode in gfs2_dirty_inode() without holding an exclusive lock. gfs2_dirty_inode() checked if the caller was already holding a glock, but it didn't make sure that the glock was in the exclusive state. Now, instead of calling file_accessed() while holding the shared lock in gfs2_mmap(), file_accessed() is called after grabbing and releasing the glock to update the inode. If file_accessed() needs to update the atime, it will grab an exclusive lock in gfs2_dirty_inode(). gfs2_dirty_inode() now also checks to make sure that if the calling process has already locked the glock, it has an exclusive lock.

Currently implementation in gfs2 uses FITRIM arguments as it were in file system blocks units which is wrong. The FITRIM arguments (fstrim_range.start, fstrim_range.len and fstrim_range.minlen) are actually in bytes. Moreover, check for start argument beyond the end of file system, len argument being smaller than file system block and minlen argument being bigger than biggest resource group were missing. This commit converts the code to convert FITRIM argument to file system blocks and also adds appropriate checks mentioned above. All the problems were recognised by xfstests 251 and 260.

We do not need to lookup a hashed negative directory since we have already revalidated it before and have found it to be fine. This also prevents a crash in cifs_lookup() when it attempts to rehash the already hashed negative lookup dentry.

The userspace cifs.idmap program generally works with the wbclient libs to generate binary SIDs in userspace. That program defines the struct that holds these values as having a max of 15 subauthorities. The kernel idmapping code however limits that value to 5. When the kernel copies those values around though, it doesn't sanity check the num_subauths value handed back from userspace or from the server. It's possible therefore for userspace to hand us back a bogus num_subauths value (or one that's valid, but greater than 5) that could cause the kernel to walk off the end of the cifs_sid->sub_auths array. Fix this by defining a new routine for copying sids and using that in all of the places that copy it. If we end up with a sid that's longer than expected then this approach will just lop off the "extra" subauths, but that's basically what the code does today already. Better approaches might be to fix this code to reject SIDs with >5 subauths, or fix it to handle the subauths array dynamically. At the same time, change the kernel to check the length of the data returned by userspace. If it's shorter than struct cifs_sid, reject it and return -EIO. If that happens we'll end up with fields that are basically uninitialized. Long term, it might make sense to redefine cifs_sid using a flexarray at the end, to allow for variable-length subauth lists, and teach the code to handle the case where the subauths array being passed in from userspace is shorter than 5 elements. Note too, that I don't consider this a security issue since you'd need a compromised cifs.idmap program. If you have that, you can do all sorts of nefarious stuff. Still, this is probably reasonable for stable. Cc: stable@kernel.org Reviewed-by: NShirish Pargaonkar <shirishpargaonkar@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

Use nfs_sb_deactive_async instead of nfs_sb_deactive when in a workqueue context. This avoids a deadlock where rpc_shutdown_client loops forever in a workqueue kworker context, trying to kill all RPC tasks associated with the client, while one or more of these tasks have already been assigned to the same kworker (and will never run rpc_exit_task). This approach is needed because RPC tasks that have already been assigned to a kworker by queue_work cannot be canceled, as explained in the comment for workqueue.c:insert_wq_barrier.

Since commit c7f404b4 ('vfs: new superblock methods to override /proc/*/mount{s,info}'), nfs_path() is used to generate the mounted device name reported back to userland. nfs_path() always generates a trailing slash when the given dentry is the root of an NFS mount, but userland may expect the original device name to be returned verbatim (as it used to be). Make this canonicalisation optional and change the callers accordingly.

In very busy v3 environment, rpc.mountd can respond to the NULL procedure but not the MNT procedure in a timely manner causing the MNT procedure to time out. The problem is the mount system call returns EIO which causes the mount to fail, instead of ETIMEDOUT, which would cause the mount to be retried. This patch sets the RPC_TASK_SOFT|RPC_TASK_TIMEOUT flags to the rpc_call_sync() call in nfs_mount() which causes ETIMEDOUT to be returned on timed out connections.
