In the truncate or hole-punch path in dax, we clear out sub-page ranges. If these sub-page ranges are sector aligned and sized, we can do the zeroing through the driver instead so that error-clearing is handled automatically. For sub-sector ranges, we still have to rely on clear_pmem and have the possibility of tripping over errors.

blkdev_dax_capable() is similar to bdev_dax_supported(), but needs to remain as a separate interface for checking dax capability of a raw block device. Rename and relocate blkdev_dax_capable() to keep them maintained consistently, and call bdev_direct_access() for the dax capability check. There is no change in the behavior.

Callers of dax fault handlers must make sure these calls cannot race with truncate. Thus it is enough to check inode size when entering the function and we don't have to recheck it again later in the handler. Note that inode size itself can be decreased while the fault handler runs but filesystem locking prevents against any radix tree or block mapping information changes resulting from the truncate and that is what we really care about.

When zeroing allocated blocks for DAX, we accidentally zeroed only the first allocated block instead of all of them. So far this problem is hidden by the fact that page faults always need only a single block and DAX write code zeroes blocks again. But the zeroing in DAX code is racy and needs to be removed so fix the zeroing in ext2 to zero all allocated blocks.

Currently ext4 treats DAX IO the same way as direct IO. I.e., it allocates unwritten extents before IO is done and converts unwritten extents afterwards. However this way DAX IO can race with page fault to the same area: ext4_ext_direct_IO() dax_fault() dax_io() get_block() - allocates unwritten extent copy_from_iter_pmem() get_block() - converts unwritten block to written and zeroes it out ext4_convert_unwritten_extents() So data written with DAX IO gets lost. Similarly dax_new_buf() called from dax_io() can overwrite data that has been already written to the block via mmap. Fix the problem by using pre-zeroed blocks for DAX IO the same way as we use them for DAX mmap. The downside of this solution is that every allocating write writes each block twice (once zeros, once data). Fixing the race with locking is possible as well however we would need to lock-out faults for the whole range written to by DAX IO. And that is not easy to do without locking-out faults for the whole file which seems too aggressive. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Currently ext4 direct IO handling is split between ext4_ext_direct_IO() and ext4_ind_direct_IO(). However the extent based function calls into the indirect based one for some cases and for example it is not able to handle file extending. Previously it was not also properly handling retries in case of ENOSPC errors. With DAX things would get even more contrieved so just refactor the direct IO code and instead of indirect / extent split do the split to read vs writes.

When there are blocks to free in the running transaction, block allocator can return ENOSPC although the filesystem has some blocks to free. We use ext4_should_retry_alloc() to force commit of the current transaction and return whether anything was committed so that it makes sense to retry the allocation. However the transaction may get committed after block allocation fails but before we call ext4_should_retry_alloc(). So ext4_should_retry_alloc() returns false because there is nothing to commit and we wrongly return ENOSPC. Fix the race by unconditionally returning 1 from ext4_should_retry_alloc() when we tried to commit a transaction. This should not add any unnecessary retries since we had a transaction running a while ago when trying to allocate blocks and we want to retry the allocation once that transaction has committed anyway.

Currently, __dax_fault() does not call get_blocks() callback with create argument set, when we got back unwritten extent from the initial get_blocks() call during a write fault. This is because originally filesystems were supposed to convert unwritten extents to written ones using complete_unwritten() callback. Later this was abandoned in favor of using pre-zeroed blocks however the condition whether get_blocks() needs to be called with create == 1 remained. Fix the condition so that filesystems are not forced to zero-out and convert unwritten extents when get_blocks() is called with create == 0 (which introduces unnecessary overhead for read faults and can be problematic as the filesystem may possibly be read-only).

When filesystem is corrupted in the right way, it can happen ext4_mark_iloc_dirty() in ext4_orphan_add() returns error and we subsequently remove inode from the in-memory orphan list. However this deletion is done with list_del(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_orphan) and thus we leave i_orphan list_head with a stale content.

If the orphaned inode list contains inode #5, ext4_iget() returns a bad inode (since the bootloader inode should never be referenced directly). Because of the bad inode, we end up processing the inode repeatedly and this hangs the machine. This can be reproduced via: mke2fs -t ext4 /tmp/foo.img 100 debugfs -w -R "ssv last_orphan 5" /tmp/foo.img mount -o loop /tmp/foo.img /mnt (But don't do this if you are using an unpatched kernel if you care about the system staying functional. :-) This bug was found by the port of American Fuzzy Lop into the kernel to find file system problems[1]. (Since it *only* happens if inode #5 shows up on the orphan list --- 3, 7, 8, etc. won't do it, it's not surprising that AFL needed two hours before it found it.)

In ext4, there is a race condition between changing inode journal mode and ext4_writepages(). While ext4_writepages() is executed on a non-journalled mode inode, the inode's journal mode could be enabled by ioctl() and then, some pages dirtied after switching the journal mode will be still exposed to ext4_writepages() in non-journaled mode. To resolve this problem, we use fs-wide per-cpu rw semaphore by Jan Kara's suggestion because we don't want to waste ext4_inode_info's space for this extra rare case.

We already allocate delalloc blocks before changing the inode mode into "per-file data journal" mode to prevent delalloc blocks from remaining not allocated, but another issue concerned with "BH_Unwritten" status still exists. For example, by fallocate(), several buffers' status change into "BH_Unwritten", but these buffers cannot be processed by ext4_alloc_da_blocks(). So, they still remain in unwritten status after per-file data journaling is enabled and they cannot be changed into written status any more and, if they are journaled and eventually checkpointed, these unwritten buffer will cause a kernel panic by the below BUG_ON() function of submit_bh_wbc() when they are submitted during checkpointing. static int submit_bh_wbc(int rw, struct buffer_head *bh,... { ... BUG_ON(buffer_unwritten(bh)); Moreover, when "dioread_nolock" option is enabled, the status of a buffer is changed into "BH_Unwritten" after write_begin() completes and the "BH_Unwritten" status will be cleared after I/O is done. Therefore, if a buffer's status is changed into unwrutten but the buffer's I/O is not submitted and completed, it can cause the same problem after enabling per-file data journaling. You can easily generate this bug by executing the following command. ./kvm-xfstests -C 10000 -m nodelalloc,dioread_nolock generic/269 To resolve these problems and define a boundary between the previous mode and per-file data journaling mode, we need to flush and wait all the I/O of buffers of a file before enabling per-file data journaling of the file.

The function jbd2_journal_extend() takes as its argument the number of new credits to be added to the handle. We weren't taking into account the currently unused handle credits; worse, we would try to extend the handle by N credits when it had N credits available. In the case where jbd2_journal_extend() fails because the transaction is too large, when jbd2_journal_restart() gets called, the N credits owned by the handle gets returned to the transaction, and the transaction commit is asynchronously requested, and then start_this_handle() will be able to successfully attach the handle to the current transaction since the required credits are now available. This is mostly harmless, but since ext4_ext_truncate_extend_restart() returns EAGAIN, the truncate machinery will once again try to call ext4_ext_truncate_extend_restart(), which will do the above sequence over and over again until the transaction has committed. This was found while I was debugging a lockup in caused by running xfstests generic/074 in the data=journal case. I'm still not sure why we ended up looping forever, which suggests there may still be another bug hiding in the transaction accounting machinery, but this commit prevents us from looping in the first place.

Currently we ask jbd2 to write all dirty allocated buffers before committing a transaction when doing writeback of delay allocated blocks. However this is unnecessary since we move all pages to writeback state before dropping a transaction handle and then submit all the necessary IO. We still need the transaction commit to wait for all the outstanding writeback before flushing disk caches during transaction commit to avoid data exposure issues though. Use the new jbd2 capability and ask it to only wait for outstanding writeback during transaction commit when writing back data in ext4_writepages().

Currently when filesystem needs to make sure data is on permanent storage before committing a transaction it adds inode to transaction's inode list. During transaction commit, jbd2 writes back all dirty buffers that have allocated underlying blocks and waits for the IO to finish. However when doing writeback for delayed allocated data, we allocate blocks and immediately submit the data. Thus asking jbd2 to write dirty pages just unnecessarily adds more work to jbd2 possibly writing back other redirtied blocks. Add support to jbd2 to allow filesystem to ask jbd2 to only wait for outstanding data writes before committing a transaction and thus avoid unnecessary writes.

This flag is just duplicating what ext4_should_order_data() tells you and is used in a single place. Furthermore it doesn't reflect changes to inode data journalling flag so it may be possibly misleading. Just remove it.
