Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong: "The most notable changes are: - iomap no longer invalidates the page cache when performing a direct read, since doing so is unnecessary and the old directio code doesn't do that either. - iomap embraced the use of returning ENOTBLK from a direct write to trigger falling back to a buffered write since ext4 already did this and btrfs wants it for their port. - iomap falls back to buffered writes if we're doing a direct write and the page cache invalidation after the flush fails; this was necessary to handle a corner case in the btrfs port. - Remove email virus scanner detritus that was accidentally included in yesterday's pull request. Clearly I need(ed) to update my git branch checker scripts. :(" * tag 'iomap-5.9-merge-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: iomap: fall back to buffered writes for invalidation failures xfs: use ENOTBLK for direct I/O to buffered I/O fallback iomap: Only invalidate page cache pages on direct IO writes iomap: Make sure iomap_end is called after iomap_begin

iomap: fall back to buffered writes for invalidation failures

2020-08-05T16:24:16+00:00

Failing to invalid the page cache means data in incoherent, which is a very bad state for the system. Always fall back to buffered I/O through the page cache if we can't invalidate mappings.

ext4: add inline encryption support

2020-07-08T17:29:43+00:00

Wire up ext4 to support inline encryption via the helper functions which fs/crypto/ now provides. This includes: - Adding a mount option 'inlinecrypt' which enables inline encryption on encrypted files where it can be used. - Setting the bio_crypt_ctx on bios that will be submitted to an inline-encrypted file. Note: submit_bh_wbc() in fs/buffer.c also needed to be patched for this part, since ext4 sometimes uses ll_rw_block() on file data. - Not adding logically discontiguous data to bios that will be submitted to an inline-encrypted file. - Not doing filesystem-layer crypto on inline-encrypted files.

ext4, jbd2: ensure panic by fix a race between jbd2 abort and ext4 error handlers

2020-06-12T18:51:41+00:00

In the ext4 filesystem with errors=panic, if one process is recording errno in the superblock when invoking jbd2_journal_abort() due to some error cases, it could be raced by another __ext4_abort() which is setting the SB_RDONLY flag but missing panic because errno has not been recorded. jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() jbd2_journal_abort() journal->j_flags |= JBD2_ABORT; jbd2_journal_update_sb_errno() | ext4_journal_check_start() | __ext4_abort() | sb->s_flags |= SB_RDONLY; | if (!JBD2_REC_ERR) | return; journal->j_flags |= JBD2_REC_ERR; Finally, it will no longer trigger panic because the filesystem has already been set read-only. Fix this by introduce j_abort_mutex to make sure journal abort is completed before panic, and remove JBD2_REC_ERR flag.

ext4: support xattr gnu.* namespace for the Hurd

2020-06-12T17:23:34+00:00

The Hurd gained[0] support for moving the translator and author fields out of the inode and into the "gnu.*" xattr namespace. In anticipation of that, an xattr INDEX was reserved[1]. The Hurd has now been brought into compliance[2] with that. This patch adds support for reading and writing such attributes from Linux; you can now do something like mkdir -p hurd-root/servers/socket touch hurd-root/servers/socket/1 setfattr --name=gnu.translator --value='"/hurd/pflocal\0"' \ hurd-root/servers/socket/1 getfattr --name=gnu.translator hurd-root/servers/socket/1 # file: 1 gnu.translator="/hurd/pflocal" to setup a pipe translator, which is being used to create[3] a vm-image for the Hurd from GNU Guix.

ext4: avoid utf8_strncasecmp() with unstable name

2020-06-11T15:01:33+00:00

If the dentry name passed to ->d_compare() fits in dentry::d_iname, then it may be concurrently modified by a rename. This can cause undefined behavior (possibly out-of-bounds memory accesses or crashes) in utf8_strncasecmp(), since fs/unicode/ isn't written to handle strings that may be concurrently modified. Fix this by first copying the filename to a stack buffer if needed. This way we get a stable snapshot of the filename.

ext4: fix partial cluster initialization when splitting extent

2020-06-11T14:57:40+00:00

Fix the bug when calculating the physical block number of the first block in the split extent. This bug will cause xfstests shared/298 failure on ext4 with bigalloc enabled occasionally. Ext4 error messages indicate that previously freed blocks are being freed again, and the following fsck will fail due to the inconsistency of block bitmap and bg descriptor. The following is an example case: 1. First, Initialize a ext4 filesystem with cluster size '16K', block size '4K', in which case, one cluster contains four blocks. 2. Create one file (e.g., xxx.img) on this ext4 filesystem. Now the extent tree of this file is like: ... 36864:[0]4:220160 36868:[0]14332:145408 51200:[0]2:231424 ... 3. Then execute PUNCH_HOLE fallocate on this file. The hole range is like: .. ext4_ext_remove_space: dev 254,16 ino 12 since 49506 end 49506 depth 1 ext4_ext_remove_space: dev 254,16 ino 12 since 49544 end 49546 depth 1 ext4_ext_remove_space: dev 254,16 ino 12 since 49605 end 49607 depth 1 ... 4. Then the extent tree of this file after punching is like ... 49507:[0]37:158047 49547:[0]58:158087 ... 5. Detailed procedure of punching hole [49544, 49546] 5.1. The block address space: ``` lblk ~49505 49506 49507~49543 49544~49546 49547~ ---------+------+-------------+----------------+-------- extent | hole | extent | hole | extent ---------+------+-------------+----------------+-------- pblk ~158045 158046 158047~158083 158084~158086 158087~ ``` 5.2. The detailed layout of cluster 39521: ``` cluster 39521 <-------------------------------> hole extent <----------------------><-------- lblk 49544 49545 49546 49547 +-------+-------+-------+-------+ | | | | | +-------+-------+-------+-------+ pblk 158084 1580845 158086 158087 ``` 5.3. The ftrace output when punching hole [49544, 49546]: - ext4_ext_remove_space (start 49544, end 49546) - ext4_ext_rm_leaf (start 49544, end 49546, last_extent [49507(158047), 40], partial [pclu 39522 lblk 0 state 2]) - ext4_remove_blocks (extent [49507(158047), 40], from 49544 to 49546, partial [pclu 39522 lblk 0 state 2] - ext4_free_blocks: (block 158084 count 4) - ext4_mballoc_free (extent 1/6753/1) 5.4. Ext4 error message in dmesg: EXT4-fs error (device vdb): mb_free_blocks:1457: group 1, block 158084:freeing already freed block (bit 6753); block bitmap corrupt. EXT4-fs error (device vdb): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:747: group 1, block bitmap and bg descriptor inconsistent: 19550 vs 19551 free clusters In this case, the whole cluster 39521 is freed mistakenly when freeing pblock 158084~158086 (i.e., the first three blocks of this cluster), although pblock 158087 (the last remaining block of this cluster) has not been freed yet. The root cause of this isuue is that, the pclu of the partial cluster is calculated mistakenly in ext4_ext_remove_space(). The correct partial_cluster.pclu (i.e., the cluster number of the first block in the next extent, that is, lblock 49597 (pblock 158086)) should be 39521 rather than 39522.
