This might be unexpected but pages allocated for sbi->s_buddy_cache are charged to current memory cgroup. So, GFP_NOFS allocation could fail if current task has been killed by OOM or if current memory cgroup has no free memory left. Block allocator cannot handle such failures here yet.

ext4_reserve_inode_write() in ext4_mark_inode_dirty() could fail on error (e.g. EIO) and iloc.bh can be NULL in this case. But the error is ignored in the following "if" condition and ext4_expand_extra_isize() might be called with NULL iloc.bh set, which triggers NULL pointer dereference. This is uncovered by commit 8b4953e1 ("ext4: reserve code points for the project quota feature"), which enlarges the ext4_inode size, and run the following script on new kernel but with old mke2fs: #/bin/bash mnt=/mnt/ext4 devname=ext4-error dev=/dev/mapper/$devname fsimg=/home/fs.img trap cleanup 0 1 2 3 9 15 cleanup() { umount $mnt >/dev/null 2>&1 dmsetup remove $devname losetup -d $backend_dev rm -f $fsimg exit 0 } rm -f $fsimg fallocate -l 1g $fsimg backend_dev=`losetup -f --show $fsimg` devsize=`blockdev --getsz $backend_dev` good_tab="0 $devsize linear $backend_dev 0" error_tab="0 $devsize error $backend_dev 0" dmsetup create $devname --table "$good_tab" mkfs -t ext4 $dev mount -t ext4 -o errors=continue,strictatime $dev $mnt dmsetup load $devname --table "$error_tab" && dmsetup resume $devname echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches ls -l $mnt exit 0 [ Patch changed to simplify the function a tiny bit. -- Ted ] Signed-off-by: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

On umount path, jbd2_journal_destroy() writes latest transaction ID (->j_tail_sequence) to be used at next mount. The bug is that ->j_tail_sequence is not holding latest transaction ID in some cases. So, at next mount, there is chance to conflict with remaining (not overwritten yet) transactions. mount (id=10) write transaction (id=11) write transaction (id=12) umount (id=10) <= the bug doesn't write latest ID mount (id=10) write transaction (id=11) crash mount [recovery process] transaction (id=11) transaction (id=12) <= valid transaction ID, but old commit must not replay Like above, this bug become the cause of recovery failure, or FS corruption. So why ->j_tail_sequence doesn't point latest ID? Because if checkpoint transactions was reclaimed by memory pressure (i.e. bdev_try_to_free_page()), then ->j_tail_sequence is not updated. (And another case is, __jbd2_journal_clean_checkpoint_list() is called with empty transaction.) So in above cases, ->j_tail_sequence is not pointing latest transaction ID at umount path. Plus, REQ_FLUSH for checkpoint is not done too. So, to fix this problem with minimum changes, this patch updates ->j_tail_sequence, and issue REQ_FLUSH. (With more complex changes, some optimizations would be possible to avoid unnecessary REQ_FLUSH for example though.) BTW, journal->j_tail_sequence = ++journal->j_transaction_sequence; Increment of ->j_transaction_sequence seems to be unnecessary, but ext3 does this.

Using SEEK_DATA in a huge sparse file can easily lead to sotflockups as ext4_seek_data() iterates hole block-by-block. Fix the problem by using returned hole size from ext4_map_blocks() and thus skip the hole in one go. Update also SEEK_HOLE implementation to follow the same pattern as SEEK_DATA to make future maintenance easier. Furthermore we add cond_resched() to both ext4_seek_data() and ext4_seek_hole() to avoid softlockups in case evil user creates huge fragmented file and we have to go through lots of extents.

Currently, ext4_map_blocks() just returns 0 when it finds a hole and allocation is not requested. However we have all the information available to tell how large the hole actually is and there are callers of ext4_map_blocks() which would save some block-by-block hole iteration if they knew this information. So fill in struct ext4_map_blocks even for holes with the information we have. We keep returning 0 for holes to maintain backward compatibility of the function.

Remove counter of pending io ends as it is unused. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
-
Jan Kara authored
When mapping blocks for direct IO, we allocate io_end structure before mapping blocks and store pointer to it in the inode. This creates a requirement that any AIO DIO using io_end must be protected by i_mutex. This created problems in the past with dioread_nolock mode which was corrupting io_end pointers. Also io_end is allocated unnecessarily in case where we don't need to convert any extents (which is a common case for example when overwriting file). We fix the problem by allocating io_end only once we return unwritten extent from block mapping function for AIO DIO (so we can save some pointless io_end allocations) and we pass pointer to it in bh->b_private which generic DIO code later passes to our end IO callback. That way we remove any need for global pointer to io_end structure and thus fix the races. The downside of this change is that the checking for unwritten IO in flight in ext4_extents_can_be_merged() is more racy since we now increment i_unwritten / set EXT4_STATE_DIO_UNWRITTEN only after dropping i_data_sem. However the check has been racy already before because ext4_writepages() already increment i_unwritten after dropping i_data_sem and reserved blocks save us from hitting ENOSPC in the worst case.

Currently we've used hashed aio_mutex to serialize unaligned AIO DIO. However the code cleanups that happened after 2011 when the lock was introduced made aio_mutex acquired at almost the same places where we already have exclusion using i_mutex. So just use i_mutex for the exclusion of unaligned AIO DIO. The change moves waiting for pending unwritten extent conversion under i_mutex. That makes special handling of O_APPEND writes unnecessary and also avoids possible livelocking of unaligned AIO DIO with aligned one (nothing was preventing contiguous stream of aligned AIO DIOs to let unaligned AIO DIO wait forever).

To reduce amount of damage caused by single bad block, we limit number of inodes sharing an xattr block to 1024. Thus there can be more xattr blocks with the same contents when there are lots of files with the same extended attributes. These xattr blocks naturally result in hash collisions and can form long hash chains and we unnecessarily check each such block only to find out we cannot use it because it is already shared by too many inodes. Add a reusable flag to cache entries which is cleared when a cache entry has reached its maximum refcount. Cache entries which are not marked reusable are skipped by mb_cache_entry_find_{first,next}. This significantly speeds up mbcache when there are many same xattr blocks. For example for xattr-bench with 5 values and each process handling 20000 files, the run for 64 processes is 25x faster with this patch. Even for 8 processes the speedup is almost 3x. We have also verified that for situations where there is only one xattr block of each kind, the patch doesn't have a measurable cost.

When someone tried to set xattr to the same value (i.e., not changing anything) we did all the work of removing original xattr, possibly breaking references to shared xattr block, inserting new xattr, and merging xattr blocks again. Since this is not so rare operation and it is relatively cheap for us to detect this case, check for this and shortcut xattr setting in that case.

Currently we maintain perfect LRU list by moving entry to the tail of the list when it gets used. However these operations on cache-global list are relatively expensive. In this patch we switch to lazy updates of LRU list. Whenever entry gets used, we set a referenced bit in it. When reclaiming entries, we give referenced entries another round in the LRU. Since the list is not a real LRU anymore, rename it to just 'list'. In my testing this logic gives about 30% boost to workloads with mostly unique xattr blocks (e.g. xattr-bench with 10 files and 10000 unique xattr values).

So far number of entries in mbcache is limited only by the pressure from the shrinker. Since too many entries degrade the hash table and generally we expect that caching more entries has diminishing returns, limit number of entries the same way as in the old mbcache to 16 * hash table size. Once we exceed the desired maximum number of entries, we schedule a backround work to reclaim entries. If the background work cannot keep up and the number of entries exceeds two times the desired maximum, we reclaim some entries directly when allocating a new entry.

The conversion is generally straightforward. We convert filesystem from a global cache to per-fs one. Similarly to ext4 the tricky part is that xattr block corresponding to found mbcache entry can get freed before we get buffer lock for that block.

Original mbcache was designed to have more features than what ext? filesystems ended up using. It supported entry being in more hashes, it had a home-grown rwlocking of each entry, and one cache could cache entries from multiple filesystems. This genericity also resulted in more complex locking, larger cache entries, and generally more code complexity. This is reimplementation of the mbcache functionality to exactly fit the purpose ext? filesystems use it for. Cache entries are now considerably smaller (7 instead of 13 longs), the code is considerably smaller as well (414 vs 913 lines of code), and IMO also simpler. The new code is also much more lightweight. I have measured the speed using artificial xattr-bench benchmark, which spawns P processes, each process sets xattr for F different files, and the value of xattr is randomly chosen from a pool of V values. Averages of runtimes for 5 runs for various combinations of parameters are below. The first value in each cell is old mbache, the second value is the new mbcache.

Competing overwrite DIO in dioread_nolock mode will just overwrite pointer to io_end in the inode. This may result in data corruption or extent conversion happening from IO completion interrupt because we don't properly set buffer_defer_completion() when unlocked DIO races with locked DIO to unwritten extent. Since unlocked DIO doesn't need io_end for anything, just avoid allocating it and corrupting pointer from inode for locked DIO. A cleaner fix would be to avoid these games with io_end pointer from the inode but that requires more intrusive changes so we leave that for later.

ext4 can update bh->b_state non-atomically in _ext4_get_block() and ext4_da_get_block_prep(). Usually this is fine since bh is just a temporary storage for mapping information on stack but in some cases it can be fully living bh attached to a page. In such case non-atomic update of bh->b_state can race with an atomic update which then gets lost. Usually when we are mapping bh and thus updating bh->b_state non-atomically, nobody else touches the bh and so things work out fine but there is one case to especially worry about: ext4_finish_bio() uses BH_Uptodate_Lock on the first bh in the page to synchronize handling of PageWriteback state. So when blocksize < pagesize, we can be atomically modifying bh->b_state of a buffer that actually isn't under IO and thus can race e.g. with delalloc trying to map that buffer. The result is that we can mistakenly set / clear BH_Uptodate_Lock bit resulting in the corruption of PageWriteback state or missed unlock of BH_Uptodate_Lock. Fix the problem by always updating bh->b_state bits atomically.
