      ext4: Allow indirect-block file to grow the file size to max file size · f80da1e7
      Kazuya Mio authored 
      We can create 4402345721856 byte file with indirect block mapping.
However, if we grow an indirect-block file to the size with ftruncate(),
we can see an ext4 warning. The following patch fixes this problem.

How to reproduce:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/mp1/hoge bs=1 count=0 seek=4402345721856
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.000221428 s, 0.0 kB/s
# tail -n 1 /var/log/messages
Nov 25 15:10:27 test kernel: EXT4-fs warning (device sda8): ext4_block_to_path:345: block 1074791436 > max in inode 12

      ext4: allow an active handle to be started when freezing · be4f27d3
      Yongqiang Yang authored 
      ext4_journal_start_sb() should not prevent an active handle from being
started due to s_frozen.  Otherwise, deadlock is easy to happen, below
is a situation.

      ext4: sync the directory inode in ext4_sync_parent() · 0893ed45
      Curt Wohlgemuth authored 
      ext4 has taken the stance that, in the absence of a journal,
when an fsync/fdatasync of an inode is done, the parent
directory should be sync'ed if this inode entry is new.
ext4_sync_parent(), which implements this, does indeed sync
the dirent pages for parent directories, but it does not
sync the directory *inode*.  This patch fixes this.

Also now return error status from ext4_sync_parent().

I tested this using a power fail test, which panics a
machine running a file server getting requests from a
client.  Without this patch, on about every other test run,
the server is missing many, many files that had been synced.
With this patch, on > 6 runs, I see zero files being lost.

      ext4: init timer earlier to avoid a kernel panic in __save_error_info · 04496411
      Tao Ma authored 
      During mount, when we fail to open journal inode or root inode, the
__save_error_info will mod_timer. But actually s_err_report isn't
initialized yet and the kernel oops. The detailed information can
be found https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32082.

The best way is to check whether the timer s_err_report is initialized
or not. But it seems that in include/linux/timer.h, we can't find a
good function to check the status of this timer, so this patch just
move the initializtion of s_err_report earlier so that we can avoid
the kernel panic. The corresponding del_timer is also added in the
error path.

      jbd2: fix potential memory leak on transaction commit · 6cba611e
      Zhang Huan authored 
      There is potential memory leak of journal head in function
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction. The problem is that JBD2 will not
reclaim the journal head of commit record if error occurs or journal
is abotred.

I use the following script to reproduce this issue, on a RHEL6
system. I found it very easy to reproduce with async commit enabled.

mount /dev/sdb /mnt -o journal_checksum,journal_async_commit
touch /mnt/xxx
echo offline > /sys/block/sdb/device/state
sync
umount /mnt
rmmod ext4
rmmod jbd2

Removal of the jbd2 module will make slab complaining that
"cache `jbd2_journal_head': can't free all objects".
