Some time ago, some changes were made to make security inode attributes be atomically written during inode creation. ReiserFS fell behind in this area, but with the reworking of the xattr code, it's now fairly easy to add. The following patch adds the ability for security attributes to be added automatically during inode creation.

The current reiserfs xattr implementation open codes reiserfs_readdir and frees the path before calling the filldir function. Typically, the filldir function is something that modifies the file system, such as a chown or an inode deletion that also require reading of an inode associated with each direntry. Since the file system is modified, the path retained becomes invalid for the next run. In addition, it runs backwards in attempt to minimize activity. This is clearly suboptimal from a code cleanliness perspective as well as performance-wise. This patch implements a generic reiserfs_for_each_xattr that uses the generic readdir and a specific filldir routine that simply populates an array of dentries and then performs a specific operation on them. When all files have been operated on, it then calls the operation on the directory itself. The result is a noticable code reduction and better performance.

Deadlocks are possible in the xattr code between the journal lock and the xattr sems. This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is twofold: * It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr write operations are initiated inside a transaction. * It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata. I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

Christoph Hellwig had asked me quite some time ago to port the reiserfs xattrs to the generic xattr interface. This patch replaces the reiserfs-specific xattr handling code with the generic struct xattr_handler. However, since reiserfs doesn't split the prefix and name when accessing xattrs, it can't leverage generic_{set,get,list,remove}xattr without needlessly reconstructing the name on the back end. Update 7/26/07: Added missing dput() to deletion path. Update 8/30/07: Added missing mark_inode_dirty when i_mode is used to represent an ACL and no previous ACL existed.

The current reiserfs xattr implementation will not clean up old xattr files if files are deleted when REISERFS_FS_XATTR is unset. This results in inaccessible lost files, wasting space. This patch compiles in basic xattr knowledge, such as how to delete them and change ownership for quota tracking. If the file system has never used xattrs, then the operation is quite fast: it returns immediately when it sees there is no .reiserfs_priv directory.

ReiserFS panics can be somewhat inconsistent.

The function name for a warning is always helpful in debugging, so it is now automatically inserted into the output. Hans has stated that every warning should have a unique identifier.

This patch fixes up the reiserfs code such that transaction ids are always unsigned ints. In places they can currently be signed ints or unsigned longs. The former just causes an annoying clm-2200 warning and may join a transaction when it should wait. The latter is just for correctness since the disk format uses a 32-bit transaction id. There aren't any runtime problems that result from it not wrapping at the correct location since the value is truncated correctly even on big endian systems. The 0 value might make it to disk, but the mount-time checks will bump it to 10 itself. Signed-off-by: NJeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When allocating the memory used to store the eCryptfs header contents, a single, zeroed page was being allocated with get_zeroed_page(). However, the size of an eCryptfs header is either PAGE_CACHE_SIZE or ECRYPTFS_MINIMUM_HEADER_EXTENT_SIZE (8192), whichever is larger, and is stored in the file's private_data->crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front field. ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents() was using num_header_bytes_at_front to decide how many bytes should be written to the lower filesystem for the file header. Unfortunately, at least 8K was being written from the page, despite the chance of the single, zeroed page being smaller than 8K. This resulted in random areas of kernel memory being written between the 0x1000 and 0x1FFF bytes offsets in the eCryptfs file headers if PAGE_SIZE was 4K. This patch allocates a variable number of pages, calculated with num_header_bytes_at_front, and passes the number of allocated pages along to ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents(). Thanks to Florian Streibelt for reporting the data leak and working with me to find the problem. 2.6.28 is the only kernel release with this vulnerability.

The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list (harness/cases/3.p). Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio (since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0). The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless" (commit abf137dd). Thanks to Zach for pointing out that hlist_for_each_entry_rcu will not return with a NULL tpos at the end of the loop, even if the entry was not found.

Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context. Myself, like Eric, wasn't able to reproduce an fput() call from IRQ context, but Jeff said he was able to, with the attached test program. Independently from this, the bug is conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it. This patch adds an optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd. Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative here would be to add a brand new delayed fput() infrastructure, that I'm not sure is worth it.

Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without the dirty bits set when the page is dirty. I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve a real race, which we should close."

Commit ee6f779b ("filp->f_pos not correctly updated in proc_task_readdir") changed the proc code to use filp->f_pos directly, rather than through a temporary variable. In the process, that caused the operations to be done on the full 64 bits, even though the offset is never that big. That's all fine and dandy per se, but for some unfathomable reason gcc generates absolutely horrid code when using 64-bit values in switch() statements. To the point of actually calling out to gcc helper functions like __cmpdi2 rather than just doing the trivial comparisons directly the way gcc does for normal compares. At which point we get link failures, because we really don't want to support that kind of crazy code. Fix this by just casting the f_pos value to "unsigned long", which is plenty big enough for /proc, and avoids the gcc code generation issue.

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.

filp->f_pos only get updated at the end of the function. Thus d_off of those dirents who are in the middle will be 0, and this will cause a problem in glibc's readdir implementation, specifically endless loop.

eCryptfs has file encryption keys (FEK), file encryption key encryption keys (FEKEK), and filename encryption keys (FNEK). The per-file FEK is encrypted with one or more FEKEKs and stored in the header of the encrypted file. I noticed that the FEK is also being encrypted by the FNEK. This is a problem if a user wants to use a different FNEK than their FEKEK, as their file contents will still be accessible with the FNEK. This is a minimalistic patch which prevents the FNEKs signatures from being copied to the inode signatures list. Ultimately, it keeps the FEK from being encrypted with a FNEK.

The pages attached to a ramfs inode's pagecache by truncation from nothing - as done by SYSV SHM for example - may get discarded under memory pressure. The problem is that the pages are not marked dirty. Anything that creates data in an MMU-based ramfs will cause the pages holding that data will cause the set_page_dirty() aop to be called. For the NOMMU-based mmap, set_page_dirty() may be called by write(), but it won't be called by page-writing faults on writable mmaps, and it isn't called by ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() when a file is being truncated from nothing to allocate a contiguous run. The solution is to mark the pages dirty at the point of allocation by the truncation code.
