commit 2457aec63745e235bcafb7ef312b182d8682f0fc upstream.
aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have
mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is
visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead
when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be
noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse
the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is
visible.
The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use
grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial
allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed()
helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may
called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically.
The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used
by most filesystems.
find_get_page
find_lock_page
find_or_create_page
grab_cache_page_nowait
grab_cache_page_write_begin
All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper
pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its
behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then
old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core
function.
Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling
mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already
done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the
mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page
gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might
have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the
filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the
timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking
pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems
have consistent behaviour in this regard.
The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done
multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the
file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the
async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even
hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact
of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be
more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO"
to not hit the disk.
The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA
artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall
times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the
variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable
do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync
results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.
The performance results are reported based on a run with no profiling.
Profile data is based on a separate run with oprofile running.

commit db9ee220361de03ee86388f9ea5e529eaad5323c upstream.
It turns out that there are some serious problems with the on-disk
format of journal checksum v2. The foremost is that the function to
calculate descriptor tag size returns sizes that are too big. This
causes alignment issues on some architectures and is compounded by the
fact that some parts of jbd2 use the structure size (incorrectly) to
determine the presence of a 64bit journal instead of checking the
feature flags.
Therefore, introduce journal checksum v3, which enlarges the
descriptor block tag format to allow for full 32-bit checksums of
journal blocks, fix the journal tag function to return the correct
sizes, and fix the jbd2 recovery code to use feature flags to
determine 64bitness.
Add a few function helpers so we don't have to open-code quite so
many pieces.
Switching to a 16-byte block size was found to increase journal size
overhead by a maximum of 0.1%, to convert a 32-bit journal with no
checksumming to a 32-bit journal with checksum v3 enabled.

commit 6603120e96eae9a5d6228681ae55c7fdc998d1bb upstream.
In case of delalloc block i_disksize may be less than i_size. So we
have to update i_disksize each time we allocated and submitted some
blocks beyond i_disksize. We weren't doing this on the error paths,
so fix this.

commit c99d1e6e83b06744c75d9f5e491ed495a7086b7b upstream.
If we suffer a block allocation failure (for example due to a memory
allocation failure), it's possible that we will call
ext4_discard_allocated_blocks() before we've actually allocated any
blocks. In that case, fe_len and fe_start in ac->ac_f_ex will still
be zero, and this will result in mb_free_blocks(inode, e4b, 0, 0)
triggering the BUG_ON on mb_free_blocks():
BUG_ON(last >= (sb->s_blocksize << 3));
Fix this by bailing out of ext4_discard_allocated_blocks() if fs_len
is zero.
Also fix a missing ext4_mb_unload_buddy() call in
ext4_discard_allocated_blocks().

commit 86f0afd463215fc3e58020493482faa4ac3a4d69 upstream.
If there is a failure while allocating the preallocation structure, a
number of blocks can end up getting marked in the in-memory buddy
bitmap, and then not getting released. This can result in the
following corruption getting reported by the kernel:
EXT4-fs error (device sda3): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:758: group 1126,
12793 clusters in bitmap, 12729 in gd
In that case, we need to release the blocks using mb_free_blocks().
Tested: fs smoke test; also demonstrated that with injected errors,
the file system is no longer getting corrupted

commit 77ea2a4ba657a1ad4fb7c64bc5cdce84b8a132b6 upstream.
free_holes_block() passed local variable as a block pointer
to ext4_clear_blocks(). Thus ext4_clear_blocks() zeroed out this local
variable instead of proper place in inode / indirect block. We later
zero out proper place in inode / indirect block but don't dirty the
inode / buffer again which can lead to subtle issues (some changes e.g.
to inode can be lost).

commit 61c219f5814277ecb71d64cb30297028d6665979 upstream.
The first time that we allocate from an uninitialized inode allocation
bitmap, if the block allocation bitmap is also uninitalized, we need
to get write access to the block group descriptor before we start
modifying the block group descriptor flags and updating the free block
count, etc. Otherwise, there is the potential of a bad journal
checksum (if journal checksums are enabled), and of the file system
becoming inconsistent if we crash at exactly the wrong time.

commit a93cd4cf86466caa49cfe64607bea7f0bde3f916 upstream.
Hole punching code for files with indirect blocks wrongly computed
number of blocks which need to be cleared when traversing the indirect
block tree. That could result in punching more blocks than actually
requested and thus effectively cause a data loss. For example:
fallocate -n -p 10240000 4096
will punch the range 10240000 - 12632064 instead of the range 1024000 -
10244096. Fix the calculation.

commit c5c7b8ddfbf8cb3b2291e515a34ab1b8982f5a2d upstream.
Error recovery in ext4_alloc_branch() calls ext4_forget() even for
buffer corresponding to indirect block it did not allocate. This leads
to brelse() being called twice for that buffer (once from ext4_forget()
and once from cleanup in ext4_ind_map_blocks()) leading to buffer use
count misaccounting. Eventually (but often much later because there
are other users of the buffer) we will see messages like:
VFS: brelse: Trying to free free buffer
Another manifestation of this problem is an error:
JBD2 unexpected failure: jbd2_journal_revoke: !buffer_revoked(bh);
inconsistent data on disk
The fix is easy - don't forget buffer we did not allocate. Also add an
explanatory comment because the indexing at ext4_alloc_branch() is
somewhat subtle.

commit eeece469dedadf3918bad50ad80f4616a0064e90 upstream.
Tail of a page straddling inode size must be zeroed when being written
out due to POSIX requirement that modifications of mmaped page beyond
inode size must not be written to the file. ext4_bio_write_page() did
this only for blocks fully beyond inode size but didn't properly zero
blocks partially beyond inode size. Fix this.
The problem has been uncovered by mmap_11-4 test in openposix test suite
(part of LTP).

commit 1c8349a17137b93f0a83f276c764a6df1b9a116e upstream.
When we perform a data integrity sync we tag all the dirty pages with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE at start of ext4_da_writepages. Later we check
for this tag in write_cache_pages_da and creates a struct
mpage_da_data containing contiguously indexed pages tagged with this
tag and sync these pages with a call to mpage_da_map_and_submit. This
process is done in while loop until all the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
pages are synced. We also do journal start and stop in each iteration.
journal_stop could initiate journal commit which would call
ext4_writepage which in turn will call ext4_bio_write_page even for
delayed OR unwritten buffers. When ext4_bio_write_page is called for
such buffers, even though it does not sync them but it clears the
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE of the corresponding page and hence these pages
are also not synced by the currently running data integrity sync. We
will end up with dirty pages although sync is completed.
This could cause a potential data loss when the sync call is followed
by a truncate_pagecache call, which is exactly the case in
collapse_range. (It will cause generic/127 failure in xfstests)
To avoid this issue, we can use set_page_writeback_keepwrite instead of
set_page_writeback, which doesn't clear TOWRITE tag.

The reason for the warning is that buffer_head passed into
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() didn't have journal_head attached. This is
caused by the following race of two ext4_xattr_release_block() calls:
CPU1 CPU2
ext4_xattr_release_block() ext4_xattr_release_block()
lock_buffer(bh);
/* False */
if (BHDR(bh)->h_refcount == cpu_to_le32(1))
} else {
le32_add_cpu(&BHDR(bh)->h_refcount, -1);
unlock_buffer(bh);
lock_buffer(bh);
/* True */
if (BHDR(bh)->h_refcount == cpu_to_le32(1))
get_bh(bh);
ext4_free_blocks()
...
jbd2_journal_forget()
jbd2_journal_unfile_buffer()
-> JH is gone
error = ext4_handle_dirty_xattr_block(handle, inode, bh);
-> triggers the warning
We fix the problem by moving ext4_handle_dirty_xattr_block() under the
buffer lock. Sadly this cannot be done in nojournal mode as that
function can call sync_dirty_buffer() which would deadlock. Luckily in
nojournal mode the race is harmless (we only dirty already freed buffer)
and thus for nojournal mode we leave the dirtying outside of the buffer
lock.

ext4_end_bio() currently throws away the error that it receives. Chances
are this is part of a spate of errors, one of which will end up getting
the error returned to userspace somehow, but we shouldn't take that risk.

commit 4adb6ab3e0fa71363a5ef229544b2d17de6600d7 upstream.
When we try to get 2^32-1 block of the file which has the extent
(ee_block=2^32-2, ee_len=1) with FIBMAP ioctl, it causes BUG_ON
in ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache().
To avoid the problem, ext4_map_blocks() needs to check the file logical block
number. ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache() called via ext4_map_blocks() cannot
handle 2^32-1 because the maximum file logical block number is 2^32-2.
Note that ext4_ind_map_blocks() returns -EIO when the block number is invalid.
So ext4_map_blocks() should also return the same errno.

commit ad6599ab3ac98a4474544086e048ce86ec15a4d1 upstream.
Xfstests generic/311 and shared/298 fail when run on a bigalloc file
system. Kernel error messages produced during the tests report that
blocks to be freed are already on the to-be-freed list. When e2fsck
is run at the end of the tests, it typically reports bad i_blocks and
bad free blocks counts.
The bug that causes these failures is located in ext4_ext_rm_leaf().
Code at the end of the function frees a partial cluster if it's not
shared with an extent remaining in the leaf. However, if all the
extents in the leaf have been removed, the code dereferences an
invalid extent pointer (off the front of the leaf) when the check for
sharing is made. This generally has the effect of unconditionally
freeing the partial cluster, which leads to the observed failures
when the partial cluster is shared with the last extent in the next
leaf.
Fix this by attempting to free the cluster only if extents remain in
the leaf. Any remaining partial cluster will be freed if possible
when the next leaf is processed or when leaf removal is complete.

commit c06344939422bbd032ac967223a7863de57496b5 upstream.
Commit 9cb00419fa, which enables hole punching for bigalloc file
systems, exposed a bug introduced by commit 6ae06ff51e in an earlier
release. When run on a bigalloc file system, xfstests generic/013, 068,
075, 083, 091, 100, 112, 127, 263, 269, and 270 fail with e2fsck errors
or cause kernel error messages indicating that previously freed blocks
are being freed again.
The latter commit optimizes the selection of the starting extent in
ext4_ext_rm_leaf() when hole punching by beginning with the extent
supplied in the path argument rather than with the last extent in the
leaf node (as is still done when truncating). However, the code in
rm_leaf that initially sets partial_cluster to track cluster sharing on
extent boundaries is only guaranteed to run if rm_leaf starts with the
last node in the leaf. Consequently, partial_cluster is not correctly
initialized when hole punching, and a cluster on the boundary of a
punched region that should be retained may instead be deallocated.

commit 10542c229a4e8e25b40357beea66abe9dacda2c0 upstream.
When doing filesystem wide sync, there's no need to force transaction
commit (or synchronously write inode buffer) separately for each inode
because ext4_sync_fs() takes care of forcing commit at the end (VFS
takes care of flushing buffer cache, respectively). Most of the time
this slowness doesn't manifest because previous WB_SYNC_NONE writeback
doesn't leave much to write but when there are processes aggressively
creating new files and several filesystems to sync, the sync slowness
can be noticeable. In the following test script sync(1) takes around 6
minutes when there are two ext4 filesystems mounted on a standard SATA
drive. After this patch sync takes a couple of seconds so we have about
two orders of magnitude improvement.

Use cmpxchg() to atomically set i_flags instead of clearing out the
S_IMMUTABLE, S_APPEND, etc. flags and then setting them from the
EXT4_IMMUTABLE_FL, EXT4_APPEND_FL flags, since this opens up a race

commit dff6efc326a4d5f305797d4a6bba14f374fdd633 upstream.
Currently notify_change directly updates i_version for size updates,
which not only is counter to how all other fields are updated through
struct iattr, but also breaks XFS, which need inode updates to happen
under its own lock, and synchronized to the structure that gets written
to the log.
Remove the update in the common code, and it to btrfs and ext4,
XFS already does a proper updaste internally and currently gets a
double update with the existing code.
IMHO this is 3.13 and -stable material and should go in through the XFS
tree.

commit b93c95353413041a8cebad915a8109619f66bcc6 upstream.
If a file system has a large number of inodes per block group, all of
the metadata blocks in a flex_bg may be larger than what can fit in a
single block group. Unfortunately, ext4_alloc_group_tables() in
resize.c was never tested to see if it would handle this case
correctly, and there were a large number of bugs which caused the
following sequence to result in a BUG_ON:
kernel bug at fs/ext4/resize.c:409!
...

[<ffffffff81256768>] ext4_flex_group_add+0x1448/0x1830

This can be reproduced with the following command sequence:
mke2fs -t ext4 -i 4096 /dev/vdd 1G
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /vdd
resize2fs /dev/vdd 8G
To fix this, we need to make sure the right thing happens when a block
group's inode table straddles two block groups, which means the
following bugs had to be fixed:
1) Not clearing the BLOCK_UNINIT flag in the second block group in
ext4_alloc_group_tables --- the was proximate cause of the BUG_ON.
2) Incorrectly determining how many block groups contained contiguous
free blocks in ext4_alloc_group_tables().
3) Incorrectly setting the start of the next block range to be marked
in use after a discontinuity in setup_new_flex_group_blocks().

commit 15cc17678547676c82a5da9ccf357447333fc342 upstream.
Commit a115f749c1 (ext4: remove wait for unwritten extent conversion from
ext4_truncate) exposed a bug in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents().
It can be triggered by xfstest generic/299 when run on a test file
system created without a journal. This test continuously fallocates and
truncates files to which random dio/aio writes are simultaneously
performed by a separate process. The test completes successfully, but
if the test filesystem is mounted with the block_validity option, a
warning message stating that a logical block has been mapped to an
illegal physical block is posted in the kernel log.
The bug occurs when an extent is being converted to the written state
by ext4_end_io_dio() and ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents()
discovers a mapping for an existing uninitialized extent. Although it
sets EXT4_MAP_MAPPED in map->m_flags, it fails to set map->m_pblk to
the discovered physical block number. Because map->m_pblk is not
otherwise initialized or set by this function or its callers, its
uninitialized value is returned to ext4_map_blocks(), where it is
stored as a bogus mapping in the extent status tree.
Since map->m_pblk can accidentally contain illegal values that are
larger than the physical size of the file system, calls to
check_block_validity() in ext4_map_blocks() that are enabled if the
block_validity mount option is used can fail, resulting in the logged
warning message.

A missing cast means that when we are truncating a file which is less
than 60 bytes, we don't clear the correct area of memory, and in fact
we can end up truncating the next inode in the inode table, or worse
yet, some other kernel data structure.

commit d0abafac8c9162f39c4f6b2f8141b772a09b3770 upstream.
Commit f5a44db5d2 introduced a regression on filesystems created with
the bigalloc feature (cluster size > blocksize). It causes xfstests
generic/006 and /013 to fail with an unexpected JBD2 failure and
transaction abort that leaves the test file system in a read only state.
Other xfstests run on bigalloc file systems are likely to fail as well.
The cause is the accidental use of a cluster mask where a cluster
offset was needed in ext4_ext_map_blocks().

commit 34cf865d54813aab3497838132fb1bbd293f4054 upstream.
Akira-san has been reporting rare deadlocks of his machine when running
xfstests test 269 on ext4 filesystem. The problem turned out to be in
ext4_da_reserve_metadata() and ext4_da_reserve_space() which called
ext4_should_retry_alloc() while holding i_data_sem. Since
ext4_should_retry_alloc() can force a transaction commit, this is a
lock ordering violation and leads to deadlocks.
Fix the problem by just removing the retry loops. These functions should
just report ENOSPC to the caller (e.g. ext4_da_write_begin()) and that
function must take care of retrying after dropping all necessary locks.

commit 30fac0f75da24dd5bb43c9e911d2039a984ac815 upstream.
When the filesystem doesn't support extents (like in ext2/3
compatibility modes), there is no need to reserve any clusters. Space
estimates for writing are exact, hole punching doesn't need new
metadata, and there are no unwritten extents to convert.
This fixes a problem when filesystem still having some free space when
accessed with a native ext2/3 driver suddently reports ENOSPC when
accessed with ext4 driver.

commit 5946d089379a35dda0e531710b48fca05446a196 upstream.
A corrupted ext4 may have out of order leaf extents, i.e.
extent: lblk 0--1023, len 1024, pblk 9217, flags: LEAF UNINIT
extent: lblk 1000--2047, len 1024, pblk 10241, flags: LEAF UNINIT
^^^^ overlap with previous extent
Reading such extent could hit BUG_ON() in ext4_es_cache_extent().
BUG_ON(end < lblk);
The problem is that __read_extent_tree_block() tries to cache holes as
well but assumes 'lblk' is greater than 'prev' and passes underflowed
length to ext4_es_cache_extent(). Fix it by checking for overlapping
extents in ext4_valid_extent_entries().
I hit this when fuzz testing ext4, and am able to reproduce it by
modifying the on-disk extent by hand.
Also add the check for (ee_block + len - 1) in ext4_valid_extent() to
make sure the value is not overflow.
Ran xfstests on patched ext4 and no regression.

commit ae1495b12df1897d4f42842a7aa7276d920f6290 upstream.
While it's true that errors can only happen if there is a bug in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), if a bug does happen, we need to halt
the kernel or remount the file system read-only in order to avoid
further data loss. The ext4_journal_abort_handle() function doesn't
do any of this, and while it's likely that this call (since it doesn't
adjust refcounts) will likely result in the file system eventually
deadlocking since the current transaction will never be able to close,
it's much cleaner to call let ext4's error handling system deal with
this situation.
There's a separate bug here which is that if certain jbd2 errors
errors occur and file system is mounted errors=continue, the file
system will probably eventually end grind to a halt as described
above. But things have been this way in a long time, and usually when
we have these sorts of errors it's pretty much a disaster --- and
that's why the jbd2 layer aggressively retries memory allocations,
which is the most likely cause of these jbd2 errors.

If we take the 2nd retry path in ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea, we
potentionally return from the function without having freed these
allocations. If we don't do the return, we over-write the previous
allocation pointers, so we leak either way.
Spotted with Coverity.
[ Fixed by tytso to set is and bs to NULL after freeing these
pointers, in case in the retry loop we later end up triggering an
error causing a jump to cleanup, at which point we could have a double
free bug. -- Ted ]

The Linux Kernel Performance project guys have reported that commit
4e7ea81db5 introduces a performance regression for the following fio
workload:
[global]
direct=0
ioengine=mmap
size=1500M
bs=4k
pre_read=1
numjobs=1
overwrite=1
loops=5
runtime=300
group_reporting
invalidate=0
directory=/mnt/
file_service_type=random:36
file_service_type=random:36
[job0]
startdelay=0
rw=randrw
filename=data0/f1:data0/f2
[job1]
startdelay=0
rw=randrw
filename=data0/f2:data0/f1
...
[job7]
startdelay=0
rw=randrw
filename=data0/f2:data0/f1
The culprit of the problem is that after the commit ext4_writepages()
are more aggressive in writing back pages. Thus we have less consecutive
dirty pages resulting in more seeking.
This increased aggressivity is caused by a bug in the condition
terminating ext4_writepages(). We start writing from the beginning of
the file even if we should have terminated ext4_writepages() because
wbc->nr_to_write <= 0.
After fixing the condition the throughput of the fio workload is about 20%
better than before writeback reorganization.
