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.

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.

Pull ext4 update from Ted Ts'o:
 "Lots of bug fixes, cleanups and optimizations.  In the bug fixes
  category, of note is a fix for on-line resizing file systems where the
  block size is smaller than the page size (i.e., file systems 1k blocks
  on x86, or more interestingly file systems with 4k blocks on Power or
  ia64 systems.)

  In the cleanup category, the ext4's punch hole implementation was
  significantly improved by Lukas Czerner, and now supports bigalloc
  file systems.  In addition, Jan Kara significantly cleaned up the
  write submission code path.  We also improved error checking and added
  a few sanity checks.

  In the optimizations category, two major optimizations deserve
  mention.  The first is that ext4_writepages() is now used for
  nodelalloc and ext3 compatibility mode.  This allows writes to be
  submitted much more efficiently as a single bio request, instead of
  being sent as individual 4k writes into the block layer (which then
  relied on the elevator code to coalesce the requests in the block
  queue).  Secondly, the extent cache shrink mechanism, which was
  introduce in 3.9, no longer has a scalability bottleneck caused by the
  i_es_lru spinlock.  Other optimizations include some changes to reduce
  CPU usage and to avoid issuing empty commits unnecessarily."

In ext4 feature inline_data,it use the xattr's space to store the
inline data in inode.When we calculate the inline data as the xattr,we
add the pad.But in get_max_inline_xattr_value_size() function we count
the free space without pad.It cause some contents are moved to a block
even if it can be
stored in the inode.

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.

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.

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.
