Use the search_dirblock() in ext4_dx_find_entry(). It makes the code easier to read, and it takes advantage of common code. It also saves 100 bytes or so of text space. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Brad Spengler <spender@grsecurity.net>

If the first block of htree directory is missing '.' or '..' but is otherwise a valid directory, and we do a lookup for '.' or '..', it's possible to dereference an uninitialized memory pointer in ext4_htree_next_block(). We avoid this by moving the special case from ext4_dx_find_entry() to ext4_find_entry(); this also means we can optimize ext4_find_entry() slightly when NFS looks up "..". Thanks to Brad Spengler for pointing a Clang warning that led me to look more closely at this code. The warning was harmless, but it was useful in pointing out code that was too ugly to live. This warning was also reported by Roman Borisov. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Brad Spengler <spender@grsecurity.net>

By queuing the io end on the unwritten workqueue before adding it to our inode's list of completed IOs, I think we run the risk of the work getting completed, and the IO freed, before we try to add it to the inode's i_completed_io_list. It should be safe to add it to the inode's list of completed IOs, and -then- queue it for completion, I think. Thanks to Dave Chinner for pointing out the race.

Many tracepoints were populating an ext4_allocation_context to pass in, but this requires a slab allocation even when tracepoints are off. In fact, 4 of 5 of these allocations were only for tracing. In addition, we were only using a small fraction of the 144 bytes of this structure for this purpose. We can do away with all these alloc/frees of the ac and simply pass in the bits we care about, instead. I tested this by turning on tracing and running through xfstests on x86_64. I did not actually do anything with the trace output, however. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Our QA reported an oops in the ext4_mb_release_group_pa tracing, and Josef Bacik pointed out that it was because we may have a non-null but uninitialized ac_inode in the allocation context. I can reproduce it when running xfstests with ext4 tracepoints on, on a CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG kernel. We call trace_ext4_mb_release_group_pa from 2 places, ext4_mb_discard_group_preallocations and ext4_mb_discard_lg_preallocations In both cases we allocate an ac as a container just for tracing (!) and never fill in the ac_inode. There's no reason to be assigning, testing, or printing it as far as I can see, so just remove it from the tracepoint.

The llseek system call should return EINVAL if passed a seek offset which results in a write error. What this maximum offset should be depends on whether or not the huge_file file system feature is set, and whether or not the file is extent based or not. If the file has no "EXT4_EXTENTS_FL" flag, the maximum size which can be written (write systemcall) is different from the maximum size which can be sought (lseek systemcall). For example, the following 2 cases demonstrates the differences between the maximum size which can be written, versus the seek offset allowed by the llseek system call: #1: mkfs.ext3 <dev>; mount -t ext4 <dev> #2: mkfs.ext3 <dev>; tune2fs -Oextent,huge_file <dev>; mount -t ext4 <dev> Table. the max file size which we can write or seek at each filesystem feature tuning and file flag setting +============+===============================+===============================+ | \ File flag| | | | \ | !EXT4_EXTENTS_FL | EXT4_EXTETNS_FL | |case \| | | +------------+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+ | #1 | write: 2194719883264 | write: -------------- | | | seek: 2199023251456 | seek: -------------- | +------------+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+ | #2 | write: 4402345721856 | write: 17592186044415 | | | seek: 17592186044415 | seek: 17592186044415 | +------------+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+ The differences exist because ext4 has 2 maxbytes which are sb->s_maxbytes (= extent-mapped maxbytes) and EXT4_SB(sb)->s_bitmap_maxbytes (= block-mapped maxbytes). Although generic_file_llseek uses only extent-mapped maxbytes. (llseek of ext4_file_operations is generic_file_llseek which uses sb->s_maxbytes.) Therefore we create ext4 llseek function which uses 2 maxbytes. The new own function originates from generic_file_llseek(). If the file flag, "EXT4_EXTENTS_FL" is not set, the function alters inode->i_sb->s_maxbytes into EXT4_SB(inode->i_sb)->s_bitmap_maxbytes.

An ext4 filesystem on a read-only device, with an external journal which is at a different device number then recorded in the superblock will fail to honor the read-only setting of the device and trigger a superblock update (write). For example: - ext4 on a software raid which is in read-only mode - external journal on a read-write device which has changed device num - attempt to mount with -o journal_dev=<new_number> - hits BUG_ON(mddev->ro = 1) in md.c Cc: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Maciej Żenczykowski <zenczykowski@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Lukas Czerner authored
When the lazy_itable_init extended option is passed to mke2fs, it considerably speeds up filesystem creation because inode tables are not zeroed out. The fact that parts of the inode table are uninitialized is not a problem so long as the block group descriptors, which contain information regarding how much of the inode table has been initialized, has not been corrupted However, if the block group checksums are not valid, e2fsck must scan the entire inode table, and the the old, uninitialized data could potentially cause e2fsck to report false problems. Hence, it is important for the inode tables to be initialized as soon as possble. This commit adds this feature so that mke2fs can safely use the lazy inode table initialization feature to speed up formatting file systems. This is done via a new new kernel thread called ext4lazyinit, which is created on demand and destroyed, when it is no longer needed. There is only one thread for all ext4 filesystems in the system. When the first filesystem with inititable mount option is mounted, ext4lazyinit thread is created, then the filesystem can register its request in the request list. This thread then walks through the list of requests picking up scheduled requests and invoking ext4_init_inode_table(). Next schedule time for the request is computed by multiplying the time it took to zero out last inode table with wait multiplier, which can be set with the (init_itable=n) mount option (default is 10). We are doing this so we do not take the whole I/O bandwidth. When the thread is no longer necessary (request list is empty) it frees the appropriate structures and exits (and can be created later later by another filesystem). We do not disturb regular inode allocations in any way, it just do not care whether the inode table is, or is not zeroed. But when zeroing, we have to skip used inodes, obviously. Also we should prevent new inode allocations from the group, while zeroing is on the way. For that we take write alloc_sem lock in ext4_init_inode_table() and read alloc_sem in the ext4_claim_inode, so when we are unlucky and allocator hits the group which is currently being zeroed, it just has to wait. This can be suppresed using the mount option no_init_itable. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

ext4_group_info structures are currently allocated with kmalloc(). With a typical 4K block size, these are 136 bytes each -- meaning they'll each consume a 256-byte slab object. On a system with many ext4 large partitions, that's a lot of wasted kernel slab space. (E.g., a single 1TB partition will have about 8000 block groups, using about 2MB of slab, of which nearly 1MB is wasted.) This patch creates an array of slab pointers created as needed -- depending on the superblock block size -- and uses these slabs to allocate the group info objects.

This fixes a hang seen in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode on a lot of Power 6 systems running with ext4. When we get in the hung state, all I/O to the disk in question gets blocked where we stay indefinitely. Looking at the task list, I can see we are stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode waiting on a wake up. I added some debug code to detect this scenario and dump additional data if we were stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode for longer than 30 minutes. When it hit, I was able to see that i_flags was 0, suggesting we missed the wake up. This patch changes i_flags to be an unsigned long, uses bit operators to access it, and adds barriers around the accesses. Prior to applying this patch, we were regularly hitting this hang on numerous systems in our test environment. After applying the patch, the hangs no longer occur.

It turns out we have several problems with how EOFBLOCKS_FL is handled. First of all, there was a fencepost error where we were not clearing the EOFBLOCKS_FL when fill in the last uninitialized block, but rather when we allocate the next block _after_ the uninitalized block. Secondly we were not testing to see if we needed to clear the EOFBLOCKS_FL when writing to the file O_DIRECT or when were converting an uninitialized block (which is the most common case).

Commit e40cc4bd introduced a build breakage if CONFIG_SMP is undefined. This commit fixes the problem. This fix is only a workaround. For a real fix, cpu_sibling_mask() should be defined in UP include code, eg in linux/smp.h, and asm/smp.h should not be included directly. This fix is currently not possible because asm/smp.h defines cpu_sibling_mask() unconditionally and is included directly from many source files.

Fixes kernel bugzilla #16603 tcp_sendmsg() truncates iov_len to an 'int' which a 4GB write to write zero bytes, for example. There is also the problem higher up of how verify_iovec() works. It wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return value. However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines). So it could trigger false-positives on 64-bit as written. So fix it to use 'long'.

The PKT_CTRL_CMD_STATUS device ioctl retrieves a pointer to a pktcdvd_device from the global pkt_devs array. The index into this array is provided directly by the user and is a signed integer, so the comparison to ensure that it falls within the bounds of this array will fail when provided with a negative index. This can be used to read arbitrary kernel memory or cause a crash due to an invalid pointer dereference. This can be exploited by users with permission to open /dev/pktcdvd/control (on many distributions, this is readable by group "cdrom").
