commit fa83c34e3e56b3c672af38059e066242655271b1 upstream.

When ext4_iomap_overwrite_begin() calls ext4_iomap_begin() map blocks may
fail for some reason (e.g. memory allocation failure, bare disk write), and
later because "iomap-&gt;type ! = IOMAP_MAPPED" triggers WARN_ON(). When ext4
iomap_begin() returns an error, it is normal that the type of iomap-&gt;type
may not match the expectation. Therefore, we only determine if iomap-&gt;type
is as expected when ext4_iomap_begin() is executed successfully.

commit 00d873c17e29cc32d90ca852b82685f1673acaa5 upstream.

Ext4 has a filesystem wide lock protecting ext4_writepages() calls to
avoid races with switching of journalled data flag or inode format. This
lock can however cause a deadlock like:

CPU0                            CPU1

ext4_writepages()
  percpu_down_read(sbi-&gt;s_writepages_rwsem);
                                ext4_change_inode_journal_flag()
                                  percpu_down_write(sbi-&gt;s_writepages_rwsem);
                                    - blocks, all readers block from now on
  ext4_do_writepages()
    ext4_init_io_end()
      kmem_cache_zalloc(io_end_cachep, GFP_KERNEL)
        fs_reclaim frees dentry...
          dentry_unlink_inode()
            iput() - last ref =&gt;
              iput_final() - inode dirty =&gt;
                write_inode_now()...
                  ext4_writepages() tries to acquire sbi-&gt;s_writepages_rwsem
                    and blocks forever

Make sure we cannot recurse into filesystem reclaim from writeback code
to avoid the deadlock.

[ Upstream commit 1dedde690303c05ef732b7c5c8356fdf60a4ade3 ]

It is possible for i_disksize can exceed i_size, triggering a warning.

generic_perform_write
 copied = iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(len) // copied &lt; len
 ext4_da_write_end
 | ext4_update_i_disksize
 |  new_i_size = pos + copied;
 |  WRITE_ONCE(EXT4_I(inode)-&gt;i_disksize, newsize) // update i_disksize
 | generic_write_end
 |  copied = block_write_end(copied, len) // copied = 0
 |   if (unlikely(copied &lt; len))
 |    if (!PageUptodate(page))
 |     copied = 0;
 |  if (pos + copied &gt; inode-&gt;i_size) // return false
 if (unlikely(copied == 0))
  goto again;
 if (unlikely(iov_iter_fault_in_readable(i, bytes))) {
  status = -EFAULT;
  break;
 }

We get i_disksize greater than i_size here, which could trigger WARNING
check 'i_size_read(inode) &lt; EXT4_I(inode)-&gt;i_disksize' while doing dio:

ext4_dio_write_iter
 iomap_dio_rw
  __iomap_dio_rw // return err, length is not aligned to 512
 ext4_handle_inode_extension
  WARN_ON_ONCE(i_size_read(inode) &lt; EXT4_I(inode)-&gt;i_disksize) // Oops

 WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 2609 at fs/ext4/file.c:319
 CPU: 2 PID: 2609 Comm: aa Not tainted 6.3.0-rc2
 RIP: 0010:ext4_file_write_iter+0xbc7
 Call Trace:
  vfs_write+0x3b1
  ksys_write+0x77
  do_syscall_64+0x39

Fix it by updating 'copied' value before updating i_disksize just like
ext4_write_inline_data_end() does.

commit 1dcdce5919115a471bf4921a57f20050c545a236 upstream.

The only caller of ext4_find_inline_data_nolock() that needs setting of
EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA flag is ext4_iget_extra_inode().  In
ext4_write_inline_data_end() we just need to update inode-&gt;i_inline_off.
Since we are going to add one more caller that does not need to set
EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA, just move setting of EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA
out to ext4_iget_extra_inode().

When expanding inode space in ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea() we may need
to allocate external xattr block. If quota is not initialized for the
inode, the block allocation will not be accounted into quota usage. Make
sure the quota is initialized before we try to expand inode space.

Now we don't need .writepage hook for anything anymore. Reclaim is
fine with relying on .writepages to clean pages and we often couldn't
do much from the .writepage callback anyway. We only need to provide
.migrate_folio callback for the ext4_journalled_aops - let's use
buffer_migrate_page_norefs() there so that buffers cannot be modified
under jdb2's hands as that can cause data corruption. For example when
commit code does writeout of transaction buffers in
jbd2_journal_write_metadata_buffer(), we don't hold page lock or have
page writeback bit set or have the buffer locked. So page migration
code would go and happily migrate the page elsewhere while the copy is
running thus corrupting data.

Instead of using generic_writepages(), let's use write_cache_pages() for
writeout of journalled data. It will allow us to stop providing
.writepage callback. Our data=journal writeback path would benefit from
a larger cleanup and refactoring but that's for a separate cleanup
series.

Use the standard writepages method (ext4_do_writepages()) to perform
writeout of ordered data during journal commit.

<title>ext4: move percpu_rwsem protection into ext4_writepages()</title>

Move protection by percpu_rwsem from ext4_do_writepages() to
ext4_writepages(). We will not want to grab this protection during
transaction commits as that would be prone to deadlocks and the
protection is not needed. Move the shutdown state checking as well since
we want to be able to complete commit while the shutdown is in progress.
