ext4: mark inode dirty after converting inline directory

2017-06-07T22:47:05+00:00

commit b9cf625d6ecde0d372e23ae022feead72b4228a6 upstream.

If ext4_convert_inline_data() was called on a directory with inline
data, the filesystem was left in an inconsistent state (as considered by
e2fsck) because the file size was not increased to cover the new block.
This happened because the inode was not marked dirty after i_disksize
was updated.  Fix this by marking the inode dirty at the end of
ext4_finish_convert_inline_dir().

This bug was probably not noticed before because most users mark the
inode dirty afterwards for other reasons.  But if userspace executed
FS_IOC_SET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY with invalid parameters, as exercised by
'kvm-xfstests -c adv generic/396', then the inode was never marked dirty
after updating i_disksize.

ext4: return -ENOMEM instead of success

2017-06-07T22:46:49+00:00

commit 578620f451f836389424833f1454eeeb2ffc9e9f upstream.

We should set the error code if kzalloc() fails.

ext4: avoid clearing beyond i_blocks when truncating an inline data file

2014-02-06T19:08:16+00:00

commit 09c455aaa8f47a94d5bafaa23d58365768210507 upstream.

A missing cast means that when we are truncating a file which is less
than 60 bytes, we don't clear the correct area of memory, and in fact
we can end up truncating the next inode in the inode table, or worse
yet, some other kernel data structure.

ext4: fix data offset overflow on 32-bit archs in ext4_inline_data_fiemap()

data offset in ext4_inline_data_fiemap(). Fix that by properly typing
the shifted value.

ext4: fix readdir error in case inline_data+^dir_index.

2013-04-19T21:55:33+00:00

Zach reported a problem that if inline data is enabled, we don't
tell the difference between the offset of '.' and '..'. And a
getdents will fail if the user only want to get '.'. And what's
worse, we may meet with duplicate dir entries as the offset
for inline dir and non-inline one is quite different.

This patch just try to resolve this problem if dir_index
is disabled. In this case, f_pos is the real offset with
the dir block, so for inline dir, we just pretend as if
we are a dir block and returns the offset like a norml
dir block does.

ext4: fix readdir error in the case of inline_data+dir_index

2013-04-19T21:53:09+00:00

Zach reported a problem that if inline data is enabled, we don't
tell the difference between the offset of '.' and '..'. And a
getdents will fail if the user only want to get '.' and what's worse,
if there is a conversion happens when the user calls getdents
many times, he/she may get the same entry twice.

In theory, a dir block would also fail if it is converted to a
hashed-index based dir since f_pos will become a hash value, not the
real one, but it doesn't happen.  And a deep investigation shows that
we uses a hash based solution even for a normal dir if the dir_index
feature is enabled.

So this patch just adds a new htree_inlinedir_to_tree for inline dir,
and if we find that the hash index is supported, we will do like what
we do for a dir block.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2013-02-27T04:16:07+00:00

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
 "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
  locking violations, etc.

  The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
  "has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
  to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

  Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
  several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

  PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()

2013-02-09T02:59:22+00:00

So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for
long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass
context information for logging purposes.

The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is:

   T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
   EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats
   echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter
   echo 1 > $EVENT/enable

   ./run-my-fs-benchmark

   cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles

This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms.  Having
longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong
time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an
fsync() or an O_SYNC operation.  Here is an example line from the
trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over
1.2 seconds:

postmark-2917  [000] ....   196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32 
   tid 570 type 2 line_no 2541 interval 311 sync 0 requested_blocks 1
   dirtied_blocks 0

ext4: return ENOMEM if sb_getblk() fails

2013-01-12T21:19:36+00:00

The only reason for sb_getblk() failing is if it can't allocate the
buffer_head.  So ENOMEM is more appropriate than EIO.  In addition,
make sure that the file system is marked as being inconsistent if
sb_getblk() fails.
