3a1d406d15 xfs: xfs_attr_inactive leaves inconsistent attr fork state behind
commit 6dfe5a049f upstream.

xfs_attr_inactive() is supposed to clean up the attribute fork when
the inode is being freed. While it removes attribute fork extents,
it completely ignores attributes in local format, which means that
there can still be active attributes on the inode after
xfs_attr_inactive() has run.

This leads to problems with concurrent inode writeback - the in-core
inode attribute fork is removed without locking on the assumption
that nothing will be attempting to access the attribute fork after a
call to xfs_attr_inactive() because it isn't supposed to exist on
disk any more.

To fix this, make xfs_attr_inactive() completely remove all traces
of the attribute fork from the inode, regardless of it's state.
Further, also remove the in-core attribute fork structure safely so
that there is nothing further that needs to be done by callers to
clean up the attribute fork. This means we can remove the in-core
and on-disk attribute forks atomically.

Also, on error simply remove the in-memory attribute fork. There's
nothing that can be done with it once we have failed to remove the
on-disk attribute fork, so we may as well just blow it away here
anyway.

c6ea421797 xfs: ensure truncate forces zeroed blocks to disk
commit 5885ebda87 upstream.

A new fsync vs power fail test in xfstests indicated that XFS can
have unreliable data consistency when doing extending truncates that
require block zeroing. The blocks beyond EOF get zeroed in memory,
but we never force those changes to disk before we run the
transaction that extends the file size and exposes those blocks to
userspace. This can result in the blocks not being correctly zeroed
after a crash.

Because in-memory behaviour is correct, tools like fsx don't pick up
any coherency problems - it's not until the filesystem is shutdown
or the system crashes after writing the truncate transaction to the
journal but before the zeroed data in the page cache is flushed that
the issue is exposed.

Fix this by also flushing the dirty data in memory region between
the old size and new size when we've found blocks that need zeroing
in the truncate process.

31fbb9b0d9 xfs: Fix quota type in quota structures when reusing quota file
commit dfcc70a8c8 upstream.

For filesystems without separate project quota inode field in the
superblock we just reuse project quota file for group quotas (and vice
versa) if project quota file is allocated and we need group quota file.
When we reuse the file, quota structures on disk suddenly have wrong
type stored in d_flags though. Nobody really cares about this (although
structure type reported to userspace was wrong as well) except
that after commit 14bf61ffe6 (quota: Switch ->get_dqblk() and
->set_dqblk() to use bytes as space units) assertion in
xfs_qm_scall_getquota() started to trigger on xfs/106 test (apparently I
was testing without XFS_DEBUG so I didn't notice when submitting the
above commit).

Fix the problem by properly resetting ddq->d_flags when running quotacheck
for a quota file.

60f2d59451 xfs: set superblock buffer type correctly
commit 3443a3bca5 upstream.

When the superblock is modified in a transaction, the commonly
modified fields are not actually copied to the superblock buffer to
avoid the buffer lock becoming a serialisation point. However, there
are some other operations that modify the superblock fields within
the transaction that don't directly log to the superblock but rely
on the changes to be applied during the transaction commit (to
minimise the buffer lock hold time).

When we do this, we fail to mark the buffer log item as being a
superblock buffer and that can lead to the buffer not being marked
with the corect type in the log and hence causing recovery issues.
Fix it by setting the type correctly, similar to xfs_mod_sb()...

8da34e217b xfs: ensure buffer types are set correctly
commit 0d612fb570 upstream.

Jan Kara reported that log recovery was finding buffers with invalid
types in them. This should not happen, and indicates a bug in the
logging of buffers. To catch this, add asserts to the buffer
formatting code to ensure that the buffer type is in range when the
transaction is committed.

We don't set a type on buffers being marked stale - they are not
going to get replayed, the format item exists only for recovery to
be able to prevent replay of the buffer, so the type does not
matter. Hence that needs special casing here.

e5c1cda088 quota: Switch ->get_dqblk() and ->set_dqblk() to use bytes as space units
commit 14bf61ffe6 upstream.

Currently ->get_dqblk() and ->set_dqblk() use struct fs_disk_quota which
tracks space limits and usage in 512-byte blocks. However VFS quotas
track usage in bytes (as some filesystems require that) and we need to
somehow pass this information. Upto now it wasn't a problem because we
didn't do any unit conversion (thus VFS quota routines happily stuck
number of bytes into d_bcount field of struct fd_disk_quota). Only if
you tried to use Q_XGETQUOTA or Q_XSETQLIM for VFS quotas (or Q_GETQUOTA
/ Q_SETQUOTA for XFS quotas), you got bogus results. Hardly anyone
tried this but reportedly some Samba users hit the problem in practice.
So when we want interfaces compatible we need to fix this.

We bite the bullet and define another quota structure used for passing
information from/to ->get_dqblk()/->set_dqblk. It's somewhat sad we have
to have more conversion routines in fs/quota/quota.c and another copying
of quota structure slows down getting of quota information by about 2%
but it seems cleaner than overloading e.g. units of d_bcount to bytes.

e81cffc4ef xfs: ensure WB_SYNC_ALL writeback handles partial pages correctly
commit 0d085a529b upstream.

XFS has been having trouble with stray delayed allocation extents
beyond EOF for a long time. Recent changes to the collapse range
code has triggered erroneous EBUSY errors on page invalidtion for
block size smaller than page size filesystems. These
have been caused by dirty buffers beyond EOF on a partial page which
do not get written to disk during a sync.

The issue is that write-ahead in xfs_cluster_write() finds such a
partial page and handles it by leaving the page dirty but pushing it
into a writeback state. This used to work just fine, as the
write_cache_pages() code would then find the dirty partial page in
the next mapping tree lookup as the dirty tag is still set.

Unfortunately, when we moved to a mark and sweep approach to
writeback to fix other writeback sync issues, we broken this. THe
act of marking the page as under writeback now clears the TOWRITE
tag in the radix tree, even though the page is still dirty. This
causes the TOWRITE tag to be cleared, and hence the next lookup on
the mapping tree does not find the dirty partial page and so doesn't
try to write it again.

This same writeback bug was found recently in ext4 and fixed in
commit 1c8349a ("ext4: fix data integrity sync in ordered mode")
without communication to the wider filesystem community. We can use
exactly the same fix here so the TOWRITE flag is not cleared on
partial page writes.

2f3219f6e4 xfs: don't zero partial page cache pages during O_DIRECT writes
commit 85e584da32 upstream.

xfs is using truncate_pagecache_range to invalidate the page cache
during DIO reads.  This is different from the other filesystems who
only invalidate pages during DIO writes.

truncate_pagecache_range is meant to be used when we are freeing the
underlying data structs from disk, so it will zero any partial
ranges in the page.  This means a DIO read can zero out part of the
page cache page, and it is possible the page will stay in cache.

buffered reads will find an up to date page with zeros instead of
the data actually on disk.

This patch fixes things by using invalidate_inode_pages2_range
instead.  It preserves the page cache invalidation, but won't zero
any pages.

[dchinner: catch error and warn if it fails. Comment.]

d2f8462e22 xfs: don't zero partial page cache pages during O_DIRECT writes
commit 834ffca6f7 upstream.

Similar to direct IO reads, direct IO writes are using
truncate_pagecache_range to invalidate the page cache. This is
incorrect due to the sub-block zeroing in the page cache that
truncate_pagecache_range() triggers.

This patch fixes things by using invalidate_inode_pages2_range
instead.  It preserves the page cache invalidation, but won't zero
any pages.

4fa1c31119 xfs: don't dirty buffers beyond EOF
commit 22e757a49c upstream.

generic/263 is failing fsx at this point with a page spanning
EOF that cannot be invalidated. The operations are:

1190 mapwrite   0x52c00 thru    0x5e569 (0xb96a bytes)
1191 mapread    0x5c000 thru    0x5d636 (0x1637 bytes)
1192 write      0x5b600 thru    0x771ff (0x1bc00 bytes)

where 1190 extents EOF from 0x54000 to 0x5e569. When the direct IO
write attempts to invalidate the cached page over this range, it
fails with -EBUSY and so any attempt to do page invalidation fails.

The real question is this: Why can't that page be invalidated after
it has been written to disk and cleaned?

Well, there's data on the first two buffers in the page (1k block
size, 4k page), but the third buffer on the page (i.e. beyond EOF)
is failing drop_buffers because it's bh->b_state == 0x3, which is
BH_Uptodate | BH_Dirty.  IOWs, there's dirty buffers beyond EOF. Say
what?

OK, set_buffer_dirty() is called on all buffers from
__set_page_buffers_dirty(), regardless of whether the buffer is
beyond EOF or not, which means that when we get to ->writepage,
we have buffers marked dirty beyond EOF that we need to clean.
So, we need to implement our own .set_page_dirty method that
doesn't dirty buffers beyond EOF.

This is messy because the buffer code is not meant to be shared
and it has interesting locking issues on the buffer dirty bits.
So just copy and paste it and then modify it to suit what we need.

Note: the solutions the other filesystems and generic block code use
of marking the buffers clean in ->writepage does not work for XFS.
It still leaves dirty buffers beyond EOF and invalidations still
fail. Hence rather than play whack-a-mole, this patch simply
prevents those buffers from being dirtied in the first place.

This was caused by dquot buffer readahead not attaching a verifier
structure to the buffer when readahead was issued, resulting in the
followup read of the buffer finding a valid buffer and so not
attaching new verifiers to the buffer as part of the read.

Also, when a verifier failure occurs, we then read the buffer
without verifiers. Attach the verifiers manually after this read so
that if the buffer is then written it will be verified that the
corruption has been repaired.

Further, when flushing a dquot we don't ask for a verifier when
reading in the dquot buffer the dquot belongs to. Most of the time
this isn't an issue because the buffer is still cached, but when it
is not cached it will result in writing the dquot buffer without
having the verfier attached.

13c22aa34b xfs: ensure verifiers are attached to recovered buffers
commit 67dc288c21 upstream.

Crash testing of CRC enabled filesystems has resulted in a number of

Errors such as the following were being seen:

XFS (sdb3): metadata I/O error: block 0x1 ("xfs_trans_read_buf_map") error 74 numblks 1

The errors were typically being seen in AGF, AGI and their related
btree block buffers some time after log recovery had run. Often it
wasn't until later subsequent mounts that the problem was
discovered. The common symptom was a buffer with the correct
contents, but a CRC and an LSN that matched an older version of the
contents.

Some debug added to _xfs_buf_ioapply() indicated that buffers were
being written without verifiers attached to them from log recovery,
and Jan Kara isolated the cause to log recovery readahead an dit's
interactions with buffers that had a more recent LSN on disk than
the transaction being recovered. In this case, the buffer did not
get a verifier attached, and os when the second phase of log
recovery ran and recovered EFIs and unlinked inodes, the buffers
were modified and written without the verifier running. Hence they
had up to date contents, but stale LSNs and CRCs.

Fix it by attaching verifiers to buffers we skip due to future LSN
values so they don't escape into the buffer cache without the
correct verifier attached.

This patch is based on analysis and a patch from Jan Kara.

03e01349c6 xfs: null unused quota inodes when quota is on
When quota is on, it is expected that unused quota inodes have a
value of NULLFSINO. The changes to support a separate project quota
in 3.12 broken this rule for non-project quota inode enabled
filesystem, as the code now refuses to write the group quota inode
if neither group or project quotas are enabled. This regression was
introduced by commit d892d58 ("xfs: Start using pquotaino from the
superblock").

In this case, we should be writing NULLFSINO rather than nothing to
ensure that we leave the group quota inode in a valid state while
quotas are enabled.

Failure to do so doesn't cause a current kernel to break - the
separate project quota inodes introduced translation code to always
treat a zero inode as NULLFSINO. This was introduced by commit
0102629 ("xfs: Initialize all quota inodes to be NULLFSINO") with is
also in 3.12 but older kernels do not do this and hence taking a
filesystem back to an older kernel can result in quotas failing
initialisation at mount time. When that happens, we see this in
dmesg:

[ 1649.215390] XFS (sdb): Mounting Filesystem
[ 1649.316894] XFS (sdb): Failed to initialize disk quotas.
[ 1649.316902] XFS (sdb): Ending clean mount

By ensuring that we write NULLFSINO to quota inodes that aren't
active, we avoid this problem. We have to be really careful when
determining if the quota inodes are active or not, because we don't
want to write a NULLFSINO if the quota inodes are active and we
simply aren't updating them.

cf11da9c5d xfs: refine the allocation stack switch
The allocation stack switch at xfs_bmapi_allocate() has served it's
purpose, but is no longer a sufficient solution to the stack usage
problem we have in the XFS allocation path.

Whilst the kernel stack size is now 16k, that is not a valid reason

does allow us to do is have the freedom to refine and perfect the
modifications knowing that if we get it wrong it won't blow up in
our faces - we have a safety net now.

This is important because we still have the issue of older kernels
having smaller stacks and that they are still supported and are
demonstrating a wide range of different stack overflows.  Red Hat
has several open bugs for allocation based stack overflows from
directory modifications and direct IO block allocation and these
problems still need to be solved. If we can solve them upstream,
then distro's won't need to bake their own unique solutions.

To that end, I've observed that every allocation based stack
overflow report has had a specific characteristic - it has happened
during or directly after a bmap btree block split. That event
requires a new block to be allocated to the tree, and so we
effectively stack one allocation stack on top of another, and that's
when we get into trouble.

A further observation is that bmap btree block splits are much rarer
than writeback allocation - over a range of different workloads I've
observed the ratio of bmap btree inserts to splits ranges from 100:1
(xfstests run) to 10000:1 (local VM image server with sparse files
that range in the hundreds of thousands to millions of extents).
Either way, bmap btree split events are much, much rarer than
allocation events.

Finally, we have to move the kswapd state to the allocation workqueue
work when allocation is done on behalf of kswapd. This is proving to
cause significant perturbation in performance under memory pressure
and appears to be generating allocation deadlock warnings under some
workloads, so avoiding the use of a workqueue for the majority of
kswapd writeback allocation will minimise the impact of such
behaviour.

Hence it makes sense to move the stack switch to xfs_btree_split()
and only do it for bmap btree splits. Stack switches during
allocation will be much rarer, so there won't be significant
performacne overhead caused by switching stacks. The worse case
stack from all allocation paths will be split, not just writeback.
And the majority of memory allocations will be done in the correct
context (e.g. kswapd) without causing additional latency, and so we
simplify the memory reclaim interactions between processes,
workqueues and kswapd.

The worst stack I've been able to generate with this patch in place
is 5600 bytes deep. It's very revealing because we exit XFS at:

37)     1768      64   kmem_cache_alloc+0x13b/0x170

about 1800 bytes of stack consumed, and the remaining 3800 bytes
(and 36 functions) is memory reclaim, swap and the IO stack. And
this occurs in the inode allocation from an open(O_CREAT) syscall,
not writeback.

The amount of stack being used is much less than I've previously be
able to generate - fs_mark testing has been able to generate stack
usage of around 7k without too much trouble; with this patch it's
only just getting to 5.5k. This is primarily because the metadata
allocation paths (e.g. directory blocks) are no longer causing
double splits on the same stack, and hence now stack tracing is
showing swapping being the worst stack consumer rather than XFS.

Performance of fs_mark inode create workloads is unchanged.
Performance of fs_mark async fsync workloads is consistently good
with context switches reduced by around 150,000/s (30%).
Performance of dbench, streaming IO and postmark is unchanged.
Allocation deadlock warnings have not been seen on the workloads
that generated them since adding this patch.

aa182e64f1 Revert "xfs: block allocation work needs to be kswapd aware"
This reverts commit 1f6d64829d.

This commit resulted in regressions in performance in low
memory situations where kswapd was doing writeback of delayed
allocation blocks. It resulted in significant parallelism of the
kswapd work and with the special kswapd flags meant that hundreds of
active allocation could dip into kswapd specific memory reserves and
avoid being throttled. This cause a large amount of performance
variation, as well as random OOM-killer invocations that didn't
previously exist.

23adbe12ef fs,userns: Change inode_capable to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid
The kernel has no concept of capabilities with respect to inodes; inodes
exist independently of namespaces.  For example, inode_capable(inode,
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE) would be nonsense.

This patch changes inode_capable to check for uid and gid mappings and
renames it to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid, which should make it more
obvious what it does.

Fixes CVE-2014-4014.

36de95567f xfs: kill xfs_buf_geterror()
Most of the callers are just calling ASSERT(!xfs_buf_geterror())
which means they are checking for bp->b_error == 0. If bp is null in
this case, we will assert fail, and hence it's no different in
result to oopsing because of a null bp. In some cases, errors have
already been checked for or the function returning the buffer can't
return a buffer with an error, so it's just a redundant assert.
Either way, the assert can either be removed.

The other two non-assert callers can just test for a buffer and
error properly.

556b8883cf xfs: xfs_readsb needs to check for magic numbers
Commit daba542 ("xfs: skip verification on initial "guess"
superblock read") dropped the use of a verifier for the initial
superblock read so we can probe the sector size of the filesystem
stored in the superblock. It, however, now fails to validate that
what was read initially is actually an XFS superblock and hence will
fail the sector size check and return ENOSYS.

This causes probe-based mounts to fail because it expects XFS to
return EINVAL when it doesn't recognise the superblock format.

1f6d64829d xfs: block allocation work needs to be kswapd aware
Upon memory pressure, kswapd calls xfs_vm_writepage() from
shrink_page_list(). This can result in delayed allocation occurring
and that gets deferred to the the allocation workqueue.

The allocation then runs outside kswapd context, which means if it
needs memory (and it does to demand page metadata from disk) it can
block in shrink_inactive_list() waiting for IO congestion. These
blocking waits are normally avoiding in kswapd context, so under
memory pressure writeback from kswapd can be arbitrarily delayed by
memory reclaim.

To avoid this, pass the kswapd context to the allocation being done
by the workqueue, so that memory reclaim understands correctly that
the work is being done for kswapd and therefore it is not blocked
and does not delay memory reclaim.

To avoid issues with int->char conversion of flag fields (as noticed
in v1 of this patch) convert the flag fields in the struct
xfs_bmalloca to bool types. pahole indicates these variables are
still single byte variables, so no extra space is consumed by this
change.

53f82db003 xfs: reduce direct usage of mp->m_dir_geo
There are many places in the directory code were we don't pass the
args into and so have to extract the geometry direct from the mount
structure. Push the args or the geometry into these leaf functions
so that we don't need to grab it from the struct xfs_mount.

This, in turn, brings use to the point where directory geometry is
no longer a property of the struct xfs_mount; it is not a global
property anymore, and hence we can start to consider per-directory
configuration of physical geometries.

Start by converting the xfs_dir_isblock/leaf code - pass in the
xfs_da_args and convert the readdir code to use xfs_da_args like
the rest of the directory code to pass information around.
