      ext4: fix readdir error in the case of inline_data+dir_index · 8af0f082
      Tao Ma 提交于
      Zach reported a problem that if inline data is enabled, we don't
      tell the difference between the offset of '.' and '..'. And a
      getdents will fail if the user only want to get '.' and what's worse,
      if there is a conversion happens when the user calls getdents
      many times, he/she may get the same entry twice.
      
      In theory, a dir block would also fail if it is converted to a
      hashed-index based dir since f_pos will become a hash value, not the
      real one, but it doesn't happen.  And a deep investigation shows that
      we uses a hash based solution even for a normal dir if the dir_index
      feature is enabled.
      
      So this patch just adds a new htree_inlinedir_to_tree for inline dir,
      and if we find that the hash index is supported, we will do like what
      we do for a dir block.

      ext4: move quota initialization out of inode allocation transaction · eb9cc7e1
      Jan Kara 提交于
      Inode allocation transaction is pretty heavy (246 credits with quotas
      and extents before previous patch, still around 200 after it).  This is
      mostly due to credits required for allocation of quota structures
      (credits there are heavily overestimated but it's difficult to make
      better estimates if we don't want to wire non-trivial assumptions about
      quota format into filesystem).
      
      So move quota initialization out of allocation transaction. That way
      transaction for quota structure allocation will be started only if we
      need to look up quota structure on disk (rare) and furthermore it will
      be started for each quota type separately, not for all of them at once.
      This reduces maximum transaction size to 34 is most cases and to 73 in
      the worst case.
      
      [ Modified by tytso to clean up the cleanup paths for error handling.
        Also use a separate call to ext4_std_error() for each failure so it
        is easier for someone who is debugging a problem in this function to
        determine which function call failed. ]

      ext4: refactor code to read directory blocks into ext4_read_dirblock() · dc6982ff
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The code to read in directory blocks and verify their metadata
      checksums was replicated in ten different places across
      fs/ext4/namei.c, and the code was buggy in subtle ways in a number of
      those replicated sites.  In some cases, ext4_error() was called with a
      training newline.  In others, in particularly in empty_dir(), it was
      possible to call ext4_dirent_csum_verify() on an index block, which
      would trigger false warnings requesting the system adminsitrator to
      run e2fsck.
      
      By refactoring the code, we make the code more readable, as well as
      shrinking the compiled object file by over 700 bytes and 50 lines of
      code.

      ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start() · 9924a92a
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for
      long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass
      context information for logging purposes.
      
      The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is:
      
         T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
         EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats
         echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter
         echo 1 > $EVENT/enable
      
         ./run-my-fs-benchmark
      
         cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles
      
      This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms.  Having
      longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong
      time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an
      fsync() or an O_SYNC operation.  Here is an example line from the
      trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over
      1.2 seconds:

      ext4: avoid hang when mounting non-journal filesystems with orphan list · 0e9a9a1a
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      When trying to mount a file system which does not contain a journal,
      but which does have a orphan list containing an inode which needs to
      be truncated, the mount call with hang forever in
      ext4_orphan_cleanup() because ext4_orphan_del() will return
      immediately without removing the inode from the orphan list, leading
      to an uninterruptible loop in kernel code which will busy out one of
      the CPU's on the system.
      
      This can be trivially reproduced by trying to mount the file system
      found in tests/f_orphan_extents_inode/image.gz from the e2fsprogs
      source tree.  If a malicious user were to put this on a USB stick, and
      mount it on a Linux desktop which has automatic mounts enabled, this
      could be considered a potential denial of service attack.  (Not a big
      deal in practice, but professional paranoids worry about such things,
      and have even been known to allocate CVE numbers for such problems.)

      ext4: ext4_bread usage audit · 6d1ab10e
      Carlos Maiolino 提交于
      When ext4_bread() returns NULL and err is set to zero, this means
      there is no phyical block mapped to the specified logical block
      number.  (Previous to commit 90b0a973, err was uninitialized in this
      case, which caused other problems.)
      
      The directory handling routines use ext4_bread() in many places, the
      fact that ext4_bread() now returns NULL with err set to zero could
      cause problems since a number of these functions will simply return
      the value of err if the result of ext4_bread() was the NULL pointer,
      causing the caller of the function to think that the function was
      successful.
      
      Since directories should never contain holes, this case can only
      happen if the file system is corrupted.  This commit audits all of the
      callers of ext4_bread(), and makes sure they do the right thing if a
      hole in a directory is found by ext4_bread().
      
      Some ext4_bread() callers did not need any changes either because they
      already had its own hole detector paths.

      ext4: fix possible non-initialized variable in htree_dirblock_to_tree() · 90b0a973
      Carlos Maiolino 提交于
      htree_dirblock_to_tree() declares a non-initialized 'err' variable,
      which is passed as a reference to another functions expecting them to
      set this variable with their error codes.
      
      It's passed to ext4_bread(), which then passes it to ext4_getblk(). If
      ext4_map_blocks() returns 0 due to a lookup failure, leaving the
      ext4_getblk() buffer_head uninitialized, it will make ext4_getblk()
      return to ext4_bread() without initialize the 'err' variable, and
      ext4_bread() will return to htree_dirblock_to_tree() with this variable
      still uninitialized.  htree_dirblock_to_tree() will pass this variable
      with garbage back to ext4_htree_fill_tree(), which expects a number of
      directory entries added to the rb-tree. which, in case, might return a
      fake non-zero value due the garbage left in the 'err' variable, leading
      the kernel to an Oops in ext4_dx_readdir(), once this is expecting a
      filled rb-tree node, when in turn it will have a NULL-ed one, causing an
      invalid page request when trying to get a fname struct from this NULL-ed
      rb-tree node in this line:
      
      fname = rb_entry(info->curr_node, struct fname, rb_hash);
      
      The patch itself initializes the err variable in
      htree_dirblock_to_tree() to avoid usage mistakes by the called
      functions, and also fix ext4_getblk() to return a initialized 'err'
      variable when ext4_map_blocks() fails a lookup.

      ext4: add max_dir_size_kb mount option · df981d03
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      Very large directories can cause significant performance problems, or
      perhaps even invoke the OOM killer, if the process is running in a
      highly constrained memory environment (whether it is VM's with a small
      amount of memory or in a small memory cgroup).
      
      So it is useful, in cloud server/data center environments, to be able
      to set a filesystem-wide cap on the maximum size of a directory, to
      ensure that directories never get larger than a sane size.  We do this
      via a new mount option, max_dir_size_kb.  If there is an attempt to
      grow the directory larger than max_dir_size_kb, the system call will
      return ENOSPC instead.
