[ Upstream commit cc749e61c011c255d81b192a822db650c68b313f ]

Fuzzing reports a possible deadlock in jbd2_log_wait_commit.

This issue is triggered when an EXT4_IOC_MIGRATE ioctl is set to require
synchronous updates because the file descriptor is opened with O_SYNC.
This can lead to the jbd2_journal_stop() function calling
jbd2_might_wait_for_commit(), potentially causing a deadlock if the
EXT4_IOC_MIGRATE call races with a write(2) system call.

This problem only arises when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled. In this
case, the jbd2_might_wait_for_commit macro locks jbd2_handle in the
jbd2_journal_stop function while i_data_sem is locked. This triggers
lockdep because the jbd2_journal_start function might also lock the same
jbd2_handle simultaneously.

<title>ext4: recover csum seed of tmp_inode after migrating to extents</title>

[ Upstream commit 07ea7a617d6b278fb7acedb5cbe1a81ce2de7d0c ]

When migrating to extents, the checksum seed of temporary inode
need to be replaced by inode's, otherwise the inode checksums
will be incorrect when swapping the inodes data.

However, the temporary inode can not match it's checksum to
itself since it has lost it's own checksum seed.

mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/sdc
mount /dev/sdc /mnt/sdc
xfs_io -fc "pwrite 4k 4k" -c "fsync" /mnt/sdc/testfile
chattr -e /mnt/sdc/testfile
chattr +e /mnt/sdc/testfile
umount /dev/sdc
fsck -fn /dev/sdc

========
...
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Inode 13 passes checks, but checksum does not match inode.  Fix? no
...
========

The fix is simple, save the checksum seed of temporary inode, and
recover it after migrating to extents.

<title>ext4: don't use the orphan list when migrating an inode</title>

commit 6eeaf88fd586f05aaf1d48cb3a139d2a5c6eb055 upstream.

We probably want to remove the indirect block to extents migration
feature after a deprecation window, but until then, let's fix a
potential data loss problem caused by the fact that we put the
tmp_inode on the orphan list.  In the unlikely case where we crash and
do a journal recovery, the data blocks belonging to the inode being
migrated are also represented in the tmp_inode on the orphan list ---
and so its data blocks will get marked unallocated, and available for
reuse.

Instead, stop putting the tmp_inode on the oprhan list.  So in the
case where we crash while migrating the inode, we'll leak an inode,
which is not a disaster.  It will be easily fixed the next time we run
fsck, and it's better than potentially having blocks getting claimed
by two different files, and losing data as a result.

case where we crash while migrating the inode, we'll leak an inode,
which is not a disaster.  It will be easily fixed the next time we run
fsck, and it's better than potentially having blocks getting claimed
by two different files, and losing data as a result.

<title>ext4: set csum seed in tmp inode while migrating to extents</title>

commit e81c9302a6c3c008f5c30beb73b38adb0170ff2d upstream.

When migrating to extents, the temporary inode will have it's own checksum
seed.  This means that, when swapping the inodes data, the inode checksums
will be incorrect.

This can be fixed by recalculating the extents checksums again.  Or simply
by copying the seed into the temporary inode.

<title>ext4: fix race between writepages and enabling EXT4_EXTENTS_FL</title>

<content type='text'>
commit cb85f4d23f794e24127f3e562cb3b54b0803f456 upstream.

If EXT4_EXTENTS_FL is set on an inode while ext4_writepages() is running
on it, the following warning in ext4_add_complete_io() can be hit:

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at fs/ext4/page-io.c:234 ext4_put_io_end_defer+0xf0/0x120

Here's a minimal reproducer (not 100% reliable) (root isn't required):

        while true; do
                sync
        done &amp;
        while true; do
                rm -f file
                touch file
                chattr -e file
                echo X &gt;&gt; file
                chattr +e file
        done

The problem is that in ext4_writepages(), ext4_should_dioread_nolock()
(which only returns true on extent-based files) is checked once to set
the number of reserved journal credits, and also again later to select
the flags for ext4_map_blocks() and copy the reserved journal handle to
ext4_io_end::handle.  But if EXT4_EXTENTS_FL is being concurrently set,
the first check can see dioread_nolock disabled while the later one can
see it enabled, causing the reserved handle to unexpectedly be NULL.

Since changing EXT4_EXTENTS_FL is uncommon, and there may be other races
related to doing so as well, fix this by synchronizing changing
EXT4_EXTENTS_FL with ext4_writepages() via the existing
s_writepages_rwsem (previously called s_journal_flag_rwsem).

This was originally reported by syzbot without a reproducer at
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=2202a584a00fffd19fbf,
but now that dioread_nolock is the default I also started seeing this
when running syzkaller locally.

<title>ext4: add ext4_sb_bread() to disambiguate ENOMEM cases</title>

Today, when sb_bread() returns NULL, this can either be because of an
I/O error or because the system failed to allocate the buffer.  Since
it's an old interface, changing would require changing many call
sites.

So instead we create our own ext4_sb_bread(), which also allows us to
set the REQ_META flag.

Also fixed a problem in the xattr code where a NULL return in a
function could also mean that the xattr was not found, which could
lead to the wrong error getting returned to userspace.

<title>ext4: fix up remaining files with SPDX cleanups</title>

<content type='text'>
A number of ext4 source files were skipped due because their copyright
permission statements didn't match the expected text used by the
automated conversion utilities.  I've added SPDX tags for the rest.

While looking at some of these files, I've noticed that we have quite
a bit of variation on the licenses that were used --- in particular
some of the Red Hat licenses on the jbd2 files use a GPL2+ license,
and we have some files that have a LGPL-2.1 license (which was quite
surprising).

I've not attempted to do any license changes.  Even if it is perfectly
legal to relicense to GPL 2.0-only for consistency's sake, that should
be done with ext4 developer community discussion.

We don't need acls on xattr inodes because they are not directly
accessible from user mode.

Besides lockdep complains about recursive locking of xattr_sem as seen
