ext4: avoid crash when inline data creation follows DIO write

2022-10-26T11:22:18+00:00

commit 4bb26f2885ac6930984ee451b952c5a6042f2c0e upstream.

When inode is created and written to using direct IO, there is nothing
to clear the EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA flag. Thus when inode gets
truncated later to say 1 byte and written using normal write, we will
try to store the data as inline data. This confuses the code later
because the inode now has both normal block and inline data allocated
and the confusion manifests for example as:

ext4: don't leak old mountpoint samples

2021-01-19T17:26:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5a3b590d4b2db187faa6f06adc9a53d6199fb1f9 ]

When the first file is opened, ext4 samples the mountpoint of the
filesystem in 64 bytes of the super block.  It does so using
strlcpy(), this means that the remaining bytes in the super block
string buffer are untouched.  If the mount point before had a longer
path than the current one, it can be reconstructed.

Consider the case where the fs was mounted to "/media/johnjdeveloper"
and later to "/".  The super block buffer then contains
"/\x00edia/johnjdeveloper".

This case was seen in the wild and caused confusion how the name
of a developer ands up on the super block of a filesystem used
in production...

Fix this by using strncpy() instead of strlcpy().  The superblock
field is defined to be a fixed-size char array, and it is already
marked using __nonstring in fs/ext4/ext4.h.  The consumer of the field
in e2fsprogs already assumes that in the case of a 64+ byte mount
path, that s_last_mounted will not be NUL terminated.

ext4: fix ext4_dax_read/write inode locking sequence for IOCB_NOWAIT

2020-02-24T07:36:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit f629afe3369e9885fd6e9cc7a4f514b6a65cf9e9 ]

Apparently our current rwsem code doesn't like doing the trylock, then
lock for real scheme.  So change our dax read/write methods to just do the
trylock for the RWF_NOWAIT case.
This seems to fix AIM7 regression in some scalable filesystems upto ~25%
in some cases. Claimed in commit 942491c9e6d6 ("xfs: fix AIM7 regression")

ext4: add basic fs-verity support

2019-08-13T02:33:50+00:00

Add most of fs-verity support to ext4.  fs-verity is a filesystem
feature that enables transparent integrity protection and authentication
of read-only files.  It uses a dm-verity like mechanism at the file
level: a Merkle tree is used to verify any block in the file in
log(filesize) time.  It is implemented mainly by helper functions in
fs/verity/.  See Documentation/filesystems/fsverity.rst for the full
documentation.

This commit adds all of ext4 fs-verity support except for the actual
data verification, including:

- Adding a filesystem feature flag and an inode flag for fs-verity.

- Implementing the fsverity_operations to support enabling verity on an
  inode and reading/writing the verity metadata.

- Updating ->write_begin(), ->write_end(), and ->writepages() to support
  writing verity metadata pages.

- Calling the fs-verity hooks for ->open(), ->setattr(), and ->ioctl().

ext4 stores the verity metadata (Merkle tree and fsverity_descriptor)
past the end of the file, starting at the first 64K boundary beyond
i_size.  This approach works because (a) verity files are readonly, and
(b) pages fully beyond i_size aren't visible to userspace but can be
read/written internally by ext4 with only some relatively small changes
to ext4.  This approach avoids having to depend on the EA_INODE feature
and on rearchitecturing ext4's xattr support to support paging
multi-gigabyte xattrs into memory, and to support encrypting xattrs.
Note that the verity metadata *must* be encrypted when the file is,
since it contains hashes of the plaintext data.

This patch incorporates work by Theodore Ts'o and Chandan Rajendra.

ext4: enforce the immutable flag on open files

2019-06-10T02:04:33+00:00

According to the chattr man page, "a file with the 'i' attribute
cannot be modified..."  Historically, this was only enforced when the
file was opened, per the rest of the description, "... and the file
can not be opened in write mode".

There is general agreement that we should standardize all file systems
to prevent modifications even for files that were opened at the time
the immutable flag is set.  Eventually, a change to enforce this at
the VFS layer should be landing in mainline.  Until then, enforce this
at the ext4 level to prevent xfstests generic/553 from failing.

ext4: fix data corruption caused by overlapping unaligned and aligned IO

2019-05-11T01:45:33+00:00

Unaligned AIO must be serialized because the zeroing of partial blocks
of unaligned AIO can result in data corruption in case it's overlapping
another in flight IO.

Currently we wait for all unwritten extents before we submit unaligned
AIO which protects data in case of unaligned AIO is following overlapping
IO. However if a unaligned AIO is followed by overlapping aligned AIO we
can still end up corrupting data.

To fix this, we must make sure that the unaligned AIO is the only IO in
flight by waiting for unwritten extents conversion not just before the
IO submission, but right after it as well.

This problem can be reproduced by xfstest generic/538
