commit a71ce8c6 updated ext4_statfs() to update the on-disk superblock counters, but modified this buffer directly without any journaling of the change. This is one of the accesses that was causing the crc errors in journal replay as seen in kernel.org bugzilla #14354. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org

When an inode gets unlinked, the functions ext4_clear_blocks() and ext4_remove_blocks() call ext4_forget() for all the buffer heads corresponding to the deleted inode's data blocks. If the inode is a directory or a symlink, the is_metadata parameter must be non-zero so ext4_forget() will revoke them via jbd2_journal_revoke(). Otherwise, if these blocks are reused for a data file, and the system crashes before a journal checkpoint, the journal replay could end up corrupting these data blocks. Thanks to Curt Wohlgemuth for pointing out potential problems in this area. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org

Now that we are checking for failed journal checksums in the jbd2 layer, we don't need to check in the ext4 mount path --- since a checksum fail will result in ext4_load_journal() returning an error, causing the file system to refuse to be mounted until e2fsck can deal with the problem.

If there is a failed journal checksum, don't reset the journal. This allows for userspace programs to decide how to recover from this situation. It may be that ignoring the journal checksum failure might be a better way of recovering the file system. Once we add per-block checksums, we can definitely do better. Until then, a system administrator can try backing up the file system image (or taking a snapshot) and and trying to determine experimentally whether ignoring the checksum failure or aborting the journal replay results in less data loss.

If CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled, the double_down_write_data_sem() will trigger a false-positive warning of a recursive lock. Since we take i_data_sem for the two inodes ordered by their inode numbers, this isn't a problem. Use of down_write_nested() will notify the lock dependency checker machinery that there is no problem here.

ext4_move_extents() checks the logical block contiguousness of original file with ext4_find_extent() and mext_next_extent(). Therefore the extent which ext4_ext_path structure indicates must not be changed between above functions. But in current implementation, there is no i_data_sem protection between ext4_ext_find_extent() and mext_next_extent(). So the extent which ext4_ext_path structure indicates may be overwritten by delalloc. As a result, ext4_move_extents() will exchange wrong blocks between original and donor files. I change the place where acquire/release i_data_sem to solve this problem. Moreover, I changed move_extent_per_page() to start transaction first, and then acquire i_data_sem. Without this change, there is a possibility of the deadlock between mmap() and ext4_move_extents(): * NOTE: "A", "B" and "C" mean different processes A-1: ext4_ext_move_extents() acquires i_data_sem of two inodes. B: do_page_fault() starts the transaction (T), and then tries to acquire i_data_sem. But process "A" is already holding it, so it is kept waiting. C: While "A" and "B" running, kjournald2 tries to commit transaction (T) but it is under updating, so kjournald2 waits for it. A-2: Call ext4_journal_start with holding i_data_sem, but transaction (T) is locked. Signed-off-by: Akira Fujita <a-fujita@rs.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

If the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl fails, the number of blocks that were exchanged before the failure should be returned to the userspace caller. Unfortunately, currently if the block size is not the same as the page size, the returned block count that is returned is the page-aligned block count instead of the actual block count.

Previously add_dirent_to_buf() did not free its passed-in buffer head in the case of ENOSPC, since in some cases the caller still needed it. However, this led to potential buffer head leaks since not all callers dealt with this correctly. Fix this by making simplifying the freeing convention; now add_dirent_to_buf() *never* frees the passed-in buffer head, and leaves that to the responsibility of its caller. This makes things cleaner and easier to prove that the code is neither leaking buffer heads or calling brelse() one time too many.

PPS events must be recorded according to PPS's mode settings. If a process asks for (i.e.) capture-assert events only, when the PPS client calls the pps_event() function to save the current PPS event, we should verify the event type and then discard unwanted ones. Also, without this patch userland processes waiting for a specific PPS event (assert or clear but not both) may be awakened at wrong time.

v3020_mmio_read_bit() always returns 0 when left_shift > 7. v3020_mmio_read_bit()'s return type is (unsigned char). The code returns a value masked by (1 << left_shift) that is casted to the return type. If left_shift is larger than 7, the cast will always result in a 0 return value. The problem was discovered with left_shift = 16, and the included patch corrects the problem. The bug was introduced in the last (Apr 3 2009) commit of the file, kernel versions 2.6.30 and later.

Daniel Lezcano reported a leak in 'struct pid' and 'struct pid_namespace' that is discussed in: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/2/159. To summarize the thread, when container-init is terminated, it sets the PF_EXITING flag, zaps other processes in the container and waits to reap them. As a part of reaping, the container-init should flush any /proc dentries associated with the processes. But because the container-init is itself exiting and the following PF_EXITING check, the dentries are not flushed, resulting in leak in /proc inodes and dentries. This fix reverts the commit 7766755a ("Fix /proc dcache deadlock in do_exit") which introduced the check for PF_EXITING. At the time of the commit, shrink_dcache_parent() flushed dentries from other filesystems also and could have caused a deadlock which the commit fixed. But as pointed out by Eric Biederman, after commit 0feae5c4, shrink_dcache_parent() no longer affects other filesystems. So reverting the commit is now safe. As pointed out by Jan Kara, the leak is not as critical since the unclaimed space will be reclaimed under memory pressure or by: echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches But since this check is no longer required, its best to remove it.
