commit 35425ea2492175fd39f6116481fe98b2b3ddd4ca upstream.

"I tried to reproduce this on 3.12.21. Instead, when I do "echo hello > foo"
in an ecryptfs mount with ecryptfs_xattr specified, I get a kernel crash:

If we create a file when we mount with ecryptfs_xattr_metadata option, we will
encounter a crash in this path:
->ecryptfs_create
  ->ecryptfs_initialize_file
    ->ecryptfs_write_metadata
      ->ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_xattr
        ->ecryptfs_setxattr
          ->fsstack_copy_attr_all
It's because our dentry->d_inode used in fsstack_copy_attr_all is NULL, and it
will be initialized when ecryptfs_initialize_file finish.

So we should skip copying attr from lower inode when the value of ->d_inode is
invalid.

Pull renameat2 system call from Miklos Szeredi:
 "This adds a new syscall, renameat2(), which is the same as renameat()
  but with a flags argument.

  The purpose of extending rename is to add cross-rename, a symmetric
  variant of rename, which exchanges the two files.  This allows
  interesting things, which were not possible before, for example
  atomically replacing a directory tree with a symlink, etc...  This
  also allows overlayfs and friends to operate on whiteouts atomically.

  Andy Lutomirski also suggested a "noreplace" flag, which disables the
  overwriting behavior of rename.

  These two flags, RENAME_EXCHANGE and RENAME_NOREPLACE are only
  implemented for ext4 as an example and for testing"

mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cache

2014-04-03T23:21:01+00:00

Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon
evicting the real page.  As those pages are found from the LRU, an
iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently.  At this point,
reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing
code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty.

Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets
under the tree lock before doing the final truncate.  Reclaim will check
for this flag before installing shadow pages.

ecryptfs: fix failure handling in ->readlink()

2014-01-25T08:13:00+00:00

If ecryptfs_readlink_lower() fails, buf remains an uninitialized
pointer and passing it nd_set_link() won't do anything good.

Fixed by switching ecryptfs_readlink_lower() to saner API - make it
return buf or ERR_PTR(...) and update callers.

eCryptfs: file->private_data is always valid

2013-11-14T20:12:15+00:00

When accessing the lower_file pointer located in private_data of
eCryptfs files, there is no need to check to see if the private_data
pointer has been initialized to a non-NULL value. The file->private_data
and file->private_data->lower_file pointers are always initialized to
non-NULL values in ecryptfs_open().

This change quiets a Smatch warning:

  CHECK   /var/scm/kernel/linux/fs/ecryptfs/file.c
fs/ecryptfs/file.c:321 ecryptfs_unlocked_ioctl() error: potential NULL dereference 'lower_file'.
fs/ecryptfs/file.c:335 ecryptfs_compat_ioctl() error: potential NULL dereference 'lower_file'.
