Combination of data=ordered mode and journal_async_commit mount option is invalid. However the check in parse_options() fails to detect the case where we simply end up defaulting to data=ordered mode and we detect the problem only on remount which triggers hard to understand failure to remount the filesystem. Fix the checking of mount options to take into account also the default mode by moving the check somewhat later in the mount sequence.

mbcache used several different types to represent the number of entries in the cache. For consistency within mbcache and with the shrinker API, always use unsigned long. This does not change behavior for current mbcache users (ext2 and ext4) since they limit the entry count to a value which easily fits in an int.

When mbcache is built as a module, any modules that use it (ext2 and/or ext4) will depend on its symbols directly, incrementing its reference count. Therefore, there is no need to do module_get/module_put. Also note that since the module_get/module_put were in the mbcache module itself, executing those lines of code was already dependent on another reference to the mbcache module being held.

mbcache can be a module that is loaded long after startup, when someone asks to mount an ext2 or ext4 filesystem. Therefore it should not BUG() if kmem_cache_create() fails, but rather just fail the module load.

mbcache entries have an 'e_referenced' bit which users can set with mb_cache_entry_touch() to indicate that an entry should be given another pass through the LRU list before the shrinker can delete it. However, mb_cache_shrink() actually would, when seeing an e_referenced entry at the front of the list (the least-recently used end), place it right at the front of the list again. The next iteration would then remove the entry from the list and delete it. Consequently, e_referenced had essentially no effect, so ext2/ext4 xattr blocks would sometimes not be reused as often as expected. Fix this by making the shrinker move e_referenced entries to the back of the list rather than the front.

On a filesystem with no journal, a symlink longer than about 32 characters (exact length depending on padding for encryption) could not be followed or read immediately after being created in an encrypted directory. This happened because when the symlink data went through the delayed allocation path instead of the journaling path, the symlink was incorrectly detected as a "fast" symlink rather than a "slow" symlink until its data was written out. To fix this, disable delayed allocation for symlinks, since there is no benefit for delayed allocation anyway.

Ralf Spenneberg reported that he hit a kernel crash when mounting a modified ext4 image. And it turns out that kernel crashed when calculating fs overhead (ext4_calculate_overhead()), this is because the image has very large s_first_meta_bg (debug code shows it's 842150400), and ext4 overruns the memory in count_overhead() when setting bitmap buffer, which is PAGE_SIZE. ext4_calculate_overhead(): buf = get_zeroed_page(GFP_NOFS); <=== PAGE_SIZE buffer blks = count_overhead(sb, i, buf); count_overhead(): for (j = ext4_bg_num_gdb(sb, grp); j > 0; j--) { <=== j = 842150400 ext4_set_bit(EXT4_B2C(sbi, s++), buf); <=== buffer overrun count++; } This can be reproduced easily for me by this script: #!/bin/bash rm -f fs.img mkdir -p /mnt/ext4 fallocate -l 16M fs.img mke2fs -t ext4 -O bigalloc,meta_bg,^resize_inode -F fs.img debugfs -w -R "ssv first_meta_bg 842150400" fs.img mount -o loop fs.img /mnt/ext4 Fix it by validating s_first_meta_bg first at mount time, and refusing to mount if its value exceeds the largest possible meta_bg number.

It was possible for an xattr value to have a very large size, which would then pass validation on 32-bit architectures due to a pointer wraparound. Fix this by validating the size in a way which avoids pointer wraparound. It was also possible that a value's size would fit in the available space but its padded size would not. This would cause an out-of-bounds memory write in ext4_xattr_set_entry when replacing the xattr value. For example, if an xattr value of unpadded size 253 bytes went until the very end of the inode or block, then using setxattr(2) to replace this xattr's value with 256 bytes would cause a write to the 3 bytes past the end of the inode or buffer, and the new xattr value would be incorrectly truncated. Fix this by requiring that the padded size fit in the available space rather than the unpadded size. This patch shouldn't have any noticeable effect on non-corrupted/non-malicious filesystems.

i_extra_isize not divisible by 4 is problematic for several reasons: - It causes the in-inode xattr space to be misaligned, but the xattr header and entries are not declared __packed to express this possibility. This may cause poor performance or incorrect code generation on some platforms. - When validating the xattr entries we can read past the end of the inode if the size available for xattrs is not a multiple of 4. - It allows the nonsensical i_extra_isize=1, which doesn't even leave enough room for i_extra_isize itself. Therefore, update ext4_iget() to consider i_extra_isize not divisible by 4 to be an error, like the case where i_extra_isize is too large. This also matches the rule recently added to e2fsck for determining whether an inode has valid i_extra_isize. This patch shouldn't have any noticeable effect on non-corrupted/non-malicious filesystems, since the size of ext4_inode has always been a multiple of 4.

On a CONFIG_EXT4_FS_ENCRYPTION=n kernel, the ioctls to get and set encryption policies were disabled but EXT4_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_PWSALT was not. But there's no good reason to expose the pwsalt ioctl if the kernel doesn't support encryption. The pwsalt ioctl was also disabled pre-4.8 (via ext4_sb_has_crypto() previously returning 0 when encryption was disabled by config) and seems to have been enabled by mistake when ext4 encryption was refactored to use fs/crypto/. So let's disable it again. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Currently we just silently ignore flags that we don't understand (or that cannot be manipulated) through EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS and EXT4_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctls. This makes it problematic for the unused flags to be used in future (some app may be inadvertedly setting them and we won't notice until the flag gets used). Also this is inconsistent with other filesystems like XFS or BTRFS which return EOPNOTSUPP when they see a flag they cannot set. ext4 has the additional problem that there are flags which are returned by EXT4_IOC_GETFLAGS ioctl but which cannot be modified via EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS. So we have to be careful to ignore value of these flags and not fail the ioctl when they are set (as e.g. chattr(1) passes flags returned from EXT4_IOC_GETFLAGS to EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS without any masking and thus we'd break this utility).

In ext4_put_super, we call brelse on the buffer head containing the ext4 superblock, but then try to use it when we stop the mmp thread, because when the thread shuts down it does: write_mmp_block ext4_mmp_csum_set ext4_has_metadata_csum WARN_ON_ONCE(ext4_has_feature_metadata_csum(sb)...) which reaches into sb->s_fs_info->s_es->s_feature_ro_compat, which lives in the superblock buffer s_sbh which we just released. Fix this by moving the brelse down to a point where we are no longer using it.

This calls ext4_xattr_set(), which contains a retry loop where the journal is forced to commit if an ENOSPC error is encountered. If the task actually were to wait for the journal to commit in this case, then it would deadlock because a handle remains open from __ext4_new_inode(), so the running transaction can't be committed yet. Fortunately, __jbd2_journal_force_commit() avoids the deadlock by not allowing the running transaction to be committed while the current task has it open. However, the above lockdep warning is still triggered. This was a false positive which was introduced by: 1eaa566d: jbd2: track more dependencies on transaction commit Fix the problem by passing the handle through the 'fs_data' argument to ext4_set_context(), then using ext4_xattr_set_handle() instead of ext4_xattr_set(). And in the case where no journal handle is specified and ext4_set_context() has to open one, add an ENOSPC retry loop since in that case it is the outermost transaction.

Currently mapping of blocks for DAX writes happen with EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_PRE_IO flag set. That has a result that each ext4_map_blocks() call creates a separate written extent, although it could be merged to the neighboring extents in the extent tree. The reason for using this flag is that in case the extent is unwritten, we need to convert it to written one and zero it out. However this "convert mapped range to written" operation is already implemented by ext4_map_blocks() for the case of data writes into unwritten extent. So just use flags for that mode of operation, simplify the code, and avoid unnecessary split extents. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Fix a large number of problems with how we handle mount options in the superblock. For one, if the string in the superblock is long enough that it is not null terminated, we could run off the end of the string and try to interpret superblocks fields as characters. It's unlikely this will cause a security problem, but it could result in an invalid parse. Also, parse_options is destructive to the string, so in some cases if there is a comma-separated string, it would be modified in the superblock.
