commit 512167788a6fe9481a33a3cce5f80b684631a1bb upstream.

Remove the unused struct block_op pointer that was inadvertantly
introduced, via cut-and-paste of previous brb_op() code, as part of
commit 50dd842ad.

(Cc'ing stable@ because commit 50dd842ad did)

commit ed8b45a3679eb49069b094c0711b30833f27c734 upstream.

If dm_btree_del()'s call to push_frame() fails, e.g. due to
btree_node_validator finding invalid metadata, the dm_btree_del() error
path must unlock all frames (which have active dm-bufio buffers) that
were pushed onto the del_stack.

Otherwise, dm_bufio_client_destroy() will BUG_ON() because dm-bufio
buffers have leaked, e.g.:
  device-mapper: bufio: leaked buffer 3, hold count 1, list 0

commit 50dd842ad83b43bed71790efb31cfb2f6c05c9c1 upstream.

When applying block operations (BOPs) do not remove them from the
uncommitted BOP ring-buffer until after they've been applied -- in case
we recurse.

Also, perform BOP_INC operation, in dm_sm_metadata_create() and
sm_metadata_extend(), in terms of the uncommitted BOP ring-buffer rather
than using direct calls to sm_ll_inc().

commit 30ce6e1cc5a0f781d60227e9096c86e188d2c2bd upstream.

The block allocated at the start of btree_split_sibling() is never
released if later insert_at() fails.

Fix this by releasing the previously allocated bufio block using
unlock_block().

btree_split_beneath()'s error path had an outstanding FIXME that speaks
directly to the potential for _not_ cleaning up a previously allocated
bufio-backed block.

commit 2871c69e025e8bc507651d5a9cf81a8a7da9d24b upstream.

Commit 4c7e309340ff ("dm btree remove: fix bug in redistribute3") wasn't
a complete fix for redistribute3().

The redistribute3 function takes 3 btree nodes and shares out the entries
evenly between them.  If the three nodes in total contained
(MAX_ENTRIES * 3) - 1 entries between them then this was erroneously getting
rebalanced as (MAX_ENTRIES - 1) on the left and right, and (MAX_ENTRIES + 1) in
the center.

Fix this issue by being more careful about calculating the target number
of entries for the left and right nodes.

Unit tested in userspace using this program:

commit b0dc3c8bc157c60b1d470163882be8c13e1950af upstream.

When using nested btrees, the top leaves of the top levels contain
block addresses for the root of the next tree down.  If we shadow a
shared leaf node the leaf values (sub tree roots) should be incremented
accordingly.

This is only an issue if there is metadata sharing in the top levels.
Which only occurs if metadata snapshots are being used (as is possible
with dm-thinp).  And could result in a block from the thinp metadata
snap being reused early, thus corrupting the thinp metadata snap.

commit 6096d91af0b65a3967139b32d5adbb3647858a26 upstream.

The metadata space map has a simplified 'bootstrap' mode that is
operational when extending the space maps.  Whilst in this mode it's
possible for some refcount decrement operations to become queued (eg, as
a result of shadowing one of the bitmap indexes).  These decrements were
not being applied when switching out of bootstrap mode.

The effect of this bug was the leaking of a 4k metadata block.  This is
detected by the latest version of thin_check as a non fatal error.
