      gfs2: Large-filesystem fix for 32-bit systems · cda9dd42
      Andreas Gruenbacher authored 
      Commit ff34245d switched from iget5_locked to iget_locked among other
things, but iget_locked doesn't work for filesystems larger than 2^32
blocks on 32-bit systems.  Switch back to iget5_locked.  Filesystems
larger than 2^32 blocks are unrealistic to work well on 32-bit systems,
so this is mostly a code cleanliness fix.

      gfs2: Get rid of gfs2_ilookup · ec5ec66b
      Andreas Gruenbacher authored 
      Now that gfs2_lookup_by_inum only takes the inode glock for new inodes
(and not for cached inodes anymore), there no longer is a need to
optimize the cached-inode case in gfs2_get_dentry or delete_work_func,
and gfs2_ilookup can be removed.

In addition, gfs2_get_dentry wasn't checking the GFS2_DIF_SYSTEM flag in
i_diskflags in the gfs2_ilookup case (see gfs2_lookup_by_inum); this
inconsistency goes away as well.

      gfs2: Fix gfs2_lookup_by_inum lock inversion · 3ce37b2c
      Andreas Gruenbacher authored 
      The current gfs2_lookup_by_inum takes the glock of a presumed inode
identified by block number, verifies that the block is indeed an inode,
and then instantiates and reads the new inode via gfs2_inode_lookup.

However, instantiating a new inode may block on freeing a previous
instance of that inode (__wait_on_freeing_inode), and freeing an inode
requires to take the glock already held, leading to lock inversion and
deadlock.

Fix this by first instantiating the new inode, then verifying that the
block is an inode (if required), and then reading in the new inode, all
in gfs2_inode_lookup.

If the block we are looking for is not an inode, we discard the new
inode via iget_failed, which marks inodes as bad and unhashes them.
Other tasks waiting on that inode will get back a bad inode back from
ilookup or iget_locked; in that case, retry the lookup.

      GFS2: don't set rgrp gl_object until it's inserted into rgrp tree · 36e4ad03
      Bob Peterson authored 
      Before this patch, function read_rindex_entry would set a rgrp
glock's gl_object pointer to itself before inserting the rgrp into
the rgrp rbtree. The problem is: if another process was also reading
the rgrp in, and had already inserted its newly created rgrp, then
the second call to read_rindex_entry would overwrite that value,
then return a bad return code to the caller. Later, other functions
would reference the now-freed rgrp memory by way of gl_object.
In some cases, that could result in gfs2_rgrp_brelse being called
twice for the same rgrp: once for the failed attempt and once for
the "real" rgrp release. Eventually the kernel would panic.
There are also a number of other things that could go wrong when
a kernel module is accessing freed storage. For example, this could
result in rgrp corruption because the fake rgrp would point to a
fake bitmap in memory too, causing gfs2_inplace_reserve to search
some random memory for free blocks, and find some, since we were
never setting rgd->rd_bits to NULL before freeing it.

This patch fixes the problem by not setting gl_object until we
have successfully inserted the rgrp into the rbtree. Also, it sets
rd_bits to NULL as it frees them, which will ensure any accidental
access to the wrong rgrp will result in a kernel panic rather than
file system corruption, which is preferred.
