Don't cross a mountpoint that explicitly specifies a backup volume (target is <vol>.backup) when starting from a backup volume. It it not uncommon to mount a volume's backup directly in the volume itself. This can cause tools that are not paying attention to get into a loop mounting the volume onto itself as they attempt to traverse the tree, leading to a variety of problems. This doesn't prevent the general case of loops in a sequence of mountpoints, but addresses a common special case in the same way as other afs clients.

Fix netfs_perform_write() to set BDP_ASYNC if IOCB_NOWAIT is set rather than if IOCB_SYNC is not set. It reflects asynchronicity in the sense of not waiting rather than synchronicity in the sense of not returning until the op is complete. Without this, generic/590 fails on cifs in strict caching mode with a complaint that one of the writes fails with EAGAIN. The test can be distilled down to: mount -t cifs /my/share /mnt -ostuff xfs_io -i -c 'falloc 0 8191M -c fsync -f /mnt/file xfs_io -i -c 'pwrite -b 1M -W 0 8191M' /mnt/file Fixes: c38f4e96 ("netfs: Provide func to copy data to pagecache for buffered write") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/316306.1716306586@warthog.procyon.org.ukReviewed-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> cc: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> cc: Enzo Matsumiya <ematsumiya@suse.de> cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> cc: netfs@lists.linux.dev cc: v9fs@lists.linux.dev cc: linux-afs@lists.infradead.org cc: linux-cifs@vger.kernel.org cc: linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>

Since commit (5d8edfb9 "iomap: Copy larger chunks from userspace"), iomap will try to copy in larger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. However, if the mapping doesn't support large folio, only one page of maximum 4KB will be created and 4KB data will be writen to pagecache each time. Then, next 4KB will be handled in next iteration. This will cause potential write performance problem. If chunk is 2MB, total 512 pages need to be handled finally. During this period, fault_in_iov_iter_readable() is called to check iov_iter readable validity. Since only 4KB will be handled each time, below address space will be checked over and over again: start end - buf, buf+2MB buf+4KB, buf+2MB buf+8KB, buf+2MB ... buf+2044KB buf+2MB Obviously the checking size is wrong since only 4KB will be handled each time. So this will get a correct chunk to let iomap work well in non-large folio case. With this change, the write speed will be stable. Tested on ARM64 device. Before: - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=400K count=10485 (334 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=800K count=5242 (278 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1600K count=2621 (204 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=2200K count=1906 (170 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=3000K count=1398 (150 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=4500K count=932 (139 MB/s) After: - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=400K count=10485 (339 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=800K count=5242 (330 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1600K count=2621 (332 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=2200K count=1906 (333 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=3000K count=1398 (333 MB/s) - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=4500K count=932 (333 MB/s) Fixes: 5d8edfb9 ("iomap: Copy larger chunks from userspace") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

If an error occurs whilst we're doing an AIO write in write-through mode, we may end up calling ->ki_complete() *and* returning an error from ->write_iter(). This can result in either a UAF (the ->ki_complete() func pointer may get overwritten, for example) or a refcount underflow in io_submit() as ->ki_complete is called twice. Fix this by making netfs_end_writethrough() - and thus netfs_perform_write() - unconditionally return -EIOCBQUEUED if we're doing an AIO write and wait for completion if we're not.

This can be triggered by mounting a cifs filesystem with a cache=strict mount option and then, using the fsx program from xfstests, doing: ltp/fsx -A -d -N 1000 -S 11463 -P /tmp /cifs-mount/foo \ --replay-ops=gen112-fsxops Where gen112-fsxops holds: fallocate 0x6be7 0x8fc5 0x377d3 copy_range 0x9c71 0x77e8 0x2edaf 0x377d3 write 0x2776d 0x8f65 0x377d3 The problem is that netfs_io_request::len is being used for two purposes and ends up getting set to the amount of data we transferred, not the amount of data the caller asked to be transferred (for various reasons, such as mmap'd writes, we might end up rounding out the data written to the server to include the entire folio at each end). Fix this by keeping the amount we were asked to write in ->len and using ->submitted to track what we issued ops for. Then, when we come to calling ->ki_complete(), ->len is the right size. This also required netfs_cleanup_dio_write() to change since we're no longer advancing wreq->len. Use wreq->transferred instead as we might have done a short read. With this, the generic/112 xfstest passes if cifs is forced to put all non-DIO opens into write-through mode.

This reverts commit e6595224. These kinds of patches are only making the code worse. Compilers don't care about the unnecessary check, but removing it makes the code less obvious to a human. The declaration of 'len' is more than 80 lines earlier, so a human won't easily see that 'len' is of an unsigned type, so to a human the range check that checks against zero is much more explicit and obvious. Any tool that complains about a range check like this just because the variable is unsigned is actively detrimental, and should be ignored.

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet: - More safety fixes, primarily found by syzbot - Run the upgrade/downgrade paths in nochnages mode. Nochanges mode is primarily for testing fsck/recovery in dry run mode, so it shouldn't change anything besides disabling writes and holding dirty metadata in memory. The idea here was to reduce the amount of activity if we can't write anything out, so that bringing up a filesystem in "super ro" mode would be more lilkely to work for data recovery - but norecovery is the correct option for this. - btree_trans->locked; we now track whether a btree_trans has any btree nodes locked, and this is used for improved assertions related to trans_unlock() and trans_relock(). We'll also be using it for improving how we work with lockdep in the future: we don't want lockdep to be tracking individual btree node locks because we take too many for lockdep to track, and it's not necessary since we have a cycle detector. - Trigger improvements that are prep work for online fsck - BTREE_TRIGGER_check_repair; this regularizes how we do some repair work for extents that goes with running triggers in fsck, and fixes some subtle issues with transaction restarts there. - bch2_snapshot_equiv() has now been ripped out of fsck.c; snapshot equivalence classes are for when snapshot deletion leaves behind redundant snapshot nodes, but snapshot deletion now cleans this up right away, so the abstraction doesn't need to leak. - Improvements to how we resume writing to the journal in recovery. The code for picking the new place to write when reading the journal is greatly simplified and we also store the position in the superblock for when we don't read the journal; this means that we preserve more of the journal for list_journal debugging. - Improvements to sysfs btree_cache and btree_node_cache, for debugging memory reclaim. - We now detect when we've blocked for 10 seconds on the allocator in the write path and dump some useful info. - Safety fixes for devices references: this is a big series that changes almost all device lookups to properly check if the device exists and take a reference to it. Previously we assumed that if a bkey exists that references a device then the device must exist, and this was enforced in .invalid methods, but this was incorrect because it meant device removal relied on accounting being correct to not leave keys pointing to invalid devices, and that's not something we can assume. Getting the "pointer to invalid device" checks out of our .invalid() methods fixes some long standing device removal bugs; the only outstanding bug with device removal now is a race between the discard path and deleting alloc info, which should be easily fixed. - The allocator now prefers not to expand the new member_info.btree_allocated bitmap, meaning if repair ever requires scanning for btree nodes (because of a corrupt interior nodes) we won't have to scan the whole device(s). - New coding style document, which among other things talks about the correct usage of assertions * tag 'bcachefs-2024-05-19' of https://evilpiepirate.org/git/bcachefs: (155 commits) bcachefs: add no_invalid_checks flag bcachefs: add counters for failed shrinker reclaim bcachefs: Fix sb_field_downgrade validation bcachefs: Plumb bch_validate_flags to sb_field_ops.validate() bcachefs: s/bkey_invalid_flags/bch_validate_flags bcachefs: fsync() should not return -EROFS bcachefs: Invalid devices are now checked for by fsck, not .invalid methods bcachefs: kill bch2_dev_bkey_exists() in bch2_check_fix_ptrs() bcachefs: kill bch2_dev_bkey_exists() in bch2_read_endio() bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref() checks for device not present bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref2(); io_read.c bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref2(); debug.c bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref2(); journal_io.c bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref2(); io_write.c bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref2(); btree_io.c bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref2(); backpointers.c bcachefs: bch2_dev_get_ioref2(); alloc_background.c bcachefs: for_each_bset() declares loop iter bcachefs: Move BCACHEFS_STATFS_MAGIC value to UAPI magic.h bcachefs: Improve sysfs internal/btree_cache ...
