2009-03-26quota: Make global quota locks cacheline alignedJan Kara1-3/+3
Andrew Morton has suggested that three global quota locks can end up in the same cacheline which can result in bad cacheline ping-pong on SMP machines.

2009-03-26ext4: quota reservation for delayed allocationMingming Cao4-21/+65
Uses quota reservation/claim/release to handle quota properly for delayed allocation in the three steps: 1) quotas are reserved when data being copied to cache when block allocation is defered 2) when new blocks are allocated. reserved quotas are converted to the real allocated quota, 2) over-booked quotas for metadata blocks are released back.

2009-03-26quota: Add quota reservation supportMingming Cao1-31/+86
Delayed allocation defers the block allocation at the dirty pages flush-out time, doing quota charge/check at that time is too late. But we can't charge the quota blocks until blocks are really allocated, otherwise users could get overcharged after reboot from system crash. This patch adds quota reservation for delayed allocation. Quota blocks are reserved in memory, inode and quota won't gets dirtied until later block allocation time. Signed-off-by: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

If ecryptfs_encrypted_view or ecryptfs_xattr_metadata were being specified as mount options, a NULL pointer dereference of crypt_stat was possible during lookup. This patch moves the crypt_stat assignment into ecryptfs_lookup_and_interpose_lower(), ensuring that crypt_stat will not be NULL before we attempt to dereference it.

2009-03-22eCryptfs: Allocate a variable number of pages for file headersTyler Hicks1-13/+26
When allocating the memory used to store the eCryptfs header contents, a single, zeroed page was being allocated with get_zeroed_page(). However, the size of an eCryptfs header is either PAGE_CACHE_SIZE or ECRYPTFS_MINIMUM_HEADER_EXTENT_SIZE (8192), whichever is larger, and is stored in the file's private_data->crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front field. ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents() was using num_header_bytes_at_front to decide how many bytes should be written to the lower filesystem for the file header. Unfortunately, at least 8K was being written from the page, despite the chance of the single, zeroed page being smaller than 8K. This resulted in random areas of kernel memory being written between the 0x1000 and 0x1FFF bytes offsets in the eCryptfs file headers if PAGE_SIZE was 4K. This patch allocates a variable number of pages, calculated with num_header_bytes_at_front, and passes the number of allocated pages along to ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents(). Thanks to Florian Streibelt for reporting the data leak and working with me to find the problem. 2.6.28 is the only kernel release with this vulnerability.

2009-03-19aio: lookup_ioctx can return the wrong value when looking up a bogus contextJeff Moyer1-2/+3
The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list (harness/cases/3.p). Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio (since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0). The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless" (commit abf137dd7712132ee56d5b3143c2ff61a72a5faa). Thanks to Zach for pointing out that hlist_for_each_entry_rcu will not return with a NULL tpos at the end of the loop, even if the entry was not found.

2009-03-19eventfd: remove fput() call from possible IRQ contextDavide Libenzi1-10/+27
Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context. Myself, like Eric, wasn't able to reproduce an fput() call from IRQ context, but Jeff said he was able to, with the attached test program. Independently from this, the bug is conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it. This patch adds an optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd. Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative here would be to add a brand new delayed fput() infrastructure, that I'm not sure is worth it.

2009-03-19Fix race in create_empty_buffers() vs __set_page_dirty_buffers()Linus Torvalds1-12/+11
Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without the dirty bits set when the page is dirty. I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve a real race, which we should close."

2009-03-17Avoid 64-bit "switch()" statements on 32-bit architecturesLinus Torvalds1-1/+1
Commit ee6f779b9e0851e2f7da292a9f58e0095edf615a ("filp->f_pos not correctly updated in proc_task_readdir") changed the proc code to use filp->f_pos directly, rather than through a temporary variable. In the process, that caused the operations to be done on the full 64 bits, even though the offset is never that big. That's all fine and dandy per se, but for some unfathomable reason gcc generates absolutely horrid code when using 64-bit values in switch() statements. To the point of actually calling out to gcc helper functions like __cmpdi2 rather than just doing the trivial comparisons directly the way gcc does for normal compares. At which point we get link failures, because we really don't want to support that kind of crazy code. Fix this by just casting the f_pos value to "unsigned long", which is plenty big enough for /proc, and avoids the gcc code generation issue.

2009-03-16ext4: fix bb_prealloc_list corruption due to wrong group lockingEric Sandeen1-2/+7
This is for Red Hat bug 490026: EXT4 panic, list corruption in ext4_mb_new_inode_pa ext4_lock_group(sb, group) is supposed to protect this list for each group, and a common code flow to remove an album is like this: ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(sb, pa->pa_pstart, &grp, NULL); ext4_lock_group(sb, grp); list_del(&pa->pa_group_list); ext4_unlock_group(sb, grp); so it's critical that we get the right group number back for this prealloc context, to lock the right group (the one associated with this pa) and prevent concurrent list manipulation. however, ext4_mb_put_pa() passes in (pa->pa_pstart - 1) with a comment, "-1 is to protect from crossing allocation group". This makes sense for the group_pa, where pa_pstart is advanced by the length which has been used (in ext4_mb_release_context()), and when the entire length has been used, pa_pstart has been advanced to the first block of the next group. However, for inode_pa, pa_pstart is never advanced; it's just set once to the first block in the group and not moved after that. So in this case, if we subtract one in ext4_mb_put_pa(), we are actually locking the *previous* group, and opening the race with the other threads which do not subtract off the extra block.

2009-03-16filp->f_pos not correctly updated in proc_task_readdirZhang Le1-9/+7
filp->f_pos only get updated at the end of the function. Thus d_off of those dirents who are in the middle will be 0, and this will cause a problem in glibc's readdir implementation, specifically endless loop. Because when overflow occurs, f_pos will be set to next dirent to read, however it will be 0, unless the next one is the last one. So it will start over again and again. There is a sample program in man 2 gendents.

2009-03-14eCryptfs: don't encrypt file key with filename keyTyler Hicks4-4/+9
eCryptfs has file encryption keys (FEK), file encryption key encryption keys (FEKEK), and filename encryption keys (FNEK). The per-file FEK is encrypted with one or more FEKEKs and stored in the header of the encrypted file. I noticed that the FEK is also being encrypted by the FNEK. This is a problem if a user wants to use a different FNEK than their FEKEK, as their file contents will still be accessible with the FNEK. This is a minimalistic patch which prevents the FNEKs signatures from being copied to the inode signatures list. Ultimately, it keeps the FEK from being encrypted with a FNEK.

2009-03-14nommu: ramfs: pages allocated to an inode's pagecache may get wrongly discardedEnrik Berkhan1-0/+3
The pages attached to a ramfs inode's pagecache by truncation from nothing - as done by SYSV SHM for example - may get discarded under memory pressure. The problem is that the pages are not marked dirty. Anything that creates data in an MMU-based ramfs will cause the pages holding that data will cause the set_page_dirty() aop to be called. For the NOMMU-based mmap, set_page_dirty() may be called by write(), but it won't be called by page-writing faults on writable mmaps, and it isn't called by ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() when a file is being truncated from nothing to allocate a contiguous run. The solution is to mark the pages dirty at the point of allocation by the truncation code.

A long time ago, xs->base is allocated a 4K size and all the contents in the bucket are copied to the it. Now we use ocfs2_xattr_bucket to abstract xattr bucket and xs->base is initialized to the start of the bu_bhs[0]. So xs->base + offset will overflow when the value root is stored outside the first block. Then why we can survive the xattr test by now? It is because we always read the bucket contiguously now and kernel mm allocate continguous memory for us. We are lucky, but we should fix it. So just get the right value root as other callers do.

2009-03-12fs: new inode i_state corruption fixNick Piggin2-1/+15
There was a report of a data corruption http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/14/121. There is a script included to reproduce the problem. During testing, I encountered a number of strange things with ext3, so I tried ext2 to attempt to reduce complexity of the problem. I found that fsstress would quickly hang in wait_on_inode, waiting for I_LOCK to be cleared, even though instrumentation showed that unlock_new_inode had already been called for that inode. This points to memory scribble, or synchronisation problme. i_state of I_NEW inodes is not protected by inode_lock because other processes are not supposed to touch them until I_LOCK (and I_NEW) is cleared. Adding WARN_ON(inode->i_state & I_NEW) to sites where we modify i_state revealed that generic_sync_sb_inodes is picking up new inodes from the inode lists and passing them to __writeback_single_inode without waiting for I_NEW. Subsequently modifying i_state causes corruption. In my case it would look like this: CPU0 CPU1 unlock_new_inode() __sync_single_inode() reg <- inode->i_state reg -> reg & ~(I_LOCK|I_NEW) reg <- inode->i_state reg -> inode->i_state reg -> reg | I_SYNC reg -> inode->i_state Non-atomic RMW on CPU1 overwrites CPU0 store and sets I_LOCK|I_NEW again. Fix for this is rather than wait for I_NEW inodes, just skip over them: inodes concurrently being created are not subject to data integrity operations, and should not significantly contribute to dirty memory either. After this change, I'm unable to reproduce any of the added warnings or hangs after ~1hour of running. Previously, the new warnings would start immediately and hang would happen in under 5 minutes. I'm also testing on ext3 now, and so far no problems there either. I don't know whether this fixes the problem reported above, but it fixes a real problem for me.

If the second fasync_helper() fails, pipe_rdwr_fasync() returns the error but leaves the file on ->fasync_readers. This was always wrong, but since 233e70f4228e78eb2f80dc6650f65d3ae3dbf17c "saner FASYNC handling on file close" we have the new problem. Because in this case setfl() doesn't set FASYNC bit, __fput() will not do ->fasync(0), and we leak fasync_struct with ->fa_file pointing to the freed file.

2009-03-12Squashfs: Valid filesystems are flagged as bad by the corrupted fs patchPhillip Lougher1-17/+4
The corrupted filesystem patch added a check against zlib trying to output too much data in the presence of data corruption. This check triggered if zlib_inflate asked to be called again (Z_OK) with avail_out == 0 and no more output buffers available. This check proves to be rather dumb, as it incorrectly catches the case where zlib has generated all the output, but there are still input bytes to be processed. This patch does a number of things. It removes the original check and replaces it with code to not move to the next output buffer if there are no more output buffers available, relying on zlib to error if it wants an extra output buffer in the case of data corruption. It also replaces the Z_NO_FLUSH flag with the more correct Z_SYNC_FLUSH flag, and makes the error messages more understandable to non-technical users.

2009-03-10Bug 11061, NFS mounts droppedIan Dall1-1/+62
Addresses: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11061 sockaddr structures can't be reliably compared using memcmp() because there are padding bytes in the structure which can't be guaranteed to be the same even when the sockaddr structures refer to the same socket. Instead compare all the relevant fields. In the case of IPv6 sin6_flowinfo is not compared because it only affects QoS and sin6_scope_id is only compared if the address is "link local" because "link local" addresses need only be unique to a specific link.

2009-03-10NFS: Handle -ESTALE error in access()Suresh Jayaraman1-1/+7
Hi Trond, I have been looking at a bugreport where trying to open applications on KDE on a NFS mounted home fails temporarily. There have been multiple reports on different kernel versions pointing to this common issue: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12557 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/269954 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=508866.html This issue can be reproducible consistently by doing this on a NFS mounted home (KDE): 1. Open 2 xterm sessions 2. From one of the xterm session, do "ssh -X <remote host>" 3. "stat ~/.Xauthority" on the remote SSH session 4. Close the two xterm sessions 5. On the server do a "stat ~/.Xauthority" 6. Now on the client, try to open xterm This will fail. Even if the filehandle had become stale, the NFS client should invalidate the cache/inode and should repeat LOOKUP. Looking at the packet capture when the failure occurs shows that there were two subsequent ACCESS() calls with the same filehandle and both fails with -ESTALE error. I have tested the fix below. Now the client issue a LOOKUP after the ACCESS() call fails with -ESTALE. If all this makes sense to you, can you consider this for inclusion? Thanks, If the server returns an -ESTALE error due to stale filehandle in response to an ACCESS() call, we need to invalidate the cache and inode so that LOOKUP() can be retried. Without this change, the nfs client retries ACCESS() with the same filehandle, fails again and could lead to temporary failure of applications running on nfs mounted home.

2009-03-10NLM: Fix GRANT callback address comparison when IPv6 is enabledChuck Lever1-1/+50
The NFS mount command may pass an AF_INET server address to lockd. If lockd happens to be using a PF_INET6 listener, the nlm_cmp_addr() in nlmclnt_grant() will fail to match requests from that host because they will all have a mapped IPv4 AF_INET6 address. Adopt the same solution used in nfs_sockaddr_match_ipaddr() for NFSv4 callbacks: if either address is AF_INET, map it to an AF_INET6 address before doing the comparison.

Fix a memory leak due to allocation in the XDR layer. In cases where the RPC call needs to be retransmitted, we end up allocating new pages without clearing the old ones. Fix this by moving the allocation into nfs3_proc_setacls(). Also fix an issue discovered by Kevin Rudd, whereby the amount of memory reserved for the acls in the xdr_buf->head was miscalculated, and causing corruption.
