When a backup superblock is updated in update_backups(), the primary
superblock's offset in the group (that is, sbi-&gt;s_sbh-&gt;b_blocknr) is used
as the backup superblock's offset in its group. However, when the block
size is 1K and bigalloc is enabled, the two offsets are not equal. This
causes the backup group descriptors to be overwritten by the superblock
in update_backups(). Moreover, if meta_bg is enabled, the file system will
be corrupted because this feature uses backup group descriptors.

To solve this issue, we use a more accurate ext4_group_first_block_no() as
the offset of the backup superblock in its group.

<title>ext4: fix corrupt backup group descriptors after online resize</title>

In commit 9a8c5b0d0615 ("ext4: update the backup superblock's at the end
of the online resize"), it is assumed that update_backups() only updates
backup superblocks, so each b_data is treated as a backupsuper block to
update its s_block_group_nr and s_checksum. However, update_backups()
also updates the backup group descriptors, which causes the backup group
descriptors to be corrupted.

The above commit fixes the problem of invalid checksum of the backup
superblock. The root cause of this problem is that the checksum of
ext4_update_super() is not set correctly. This problem has been fixed
in the previous patch ("ext4: fix bad checksum after online resize").

However, we do need to set block_group_nr for the backup superblock in
update_backups(). When a block is in a group that contains a backup
superblock, and the block is the first block in the group, the block is
definitely a superblock. We add a helper function that includes setting
s_block_group_nr and updating checksum, and then call it only when the
above conditions are met to prevent the backup group descriptors from
being incorrectly modified.

When online resizing is performed twice consecutively, the error message
"Superblock checksum does not match superblock" is displayed for the
second time. Here's the reproducer:

	mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/sdb 100M
	mount /dev/sdb /tmp/test
	resize2fs /dev/sdb 5G
	resize2fs /dev/sdb 6G

To solve this issue, we moved the update of the checksum after the
es-&gt;s_overhead_clusters is updated.

<title>ext4: update the backup superblock's at the end of the online resize</title>

<content type='text'>
When expanding a file system using online resize, various fields in
the superblock (e.g., s_blocks_count, s_inodes_count, etc.) change.
To update the backup superblocks, the online resize uses the function
update_backups() in fs/ext4/resize.c.  This function was not updating
the checksum field in the backup superblocks.  This wasn't a big deal
previously, because e2fsck didn't care about the checksum field in the
backup superblock.  (And indeed, update_backups() goes all the way
back to the ext3 days, well before we had support for metadata
checksums.)

However, there is an alternate, more general way of updating
superblock fields, ext4_update_primary_sb() in fs/ext4/ioctl.c.  This
function does check the checksum of the backup superblock, and if it
doesn't match will mark the file system as corrupted.  That was
clearly not the intent, so avoid to aborting the resize when a bad
superblock is found.

In addition, teach update_backups() to properly update the checksum in
the backup superblocks.  We will eventually want to unify
updapte_backups() with the infrasture in ext4_update_primary_sb(), but
that's for another day.

Note: The problem has been around for a while; it just didn't really
matter until ext4_update_primary_sb() was added by commit bbc605cdb1e1
("ext4: implement support for get/set fs label").  And it became
trivially easy to reproduce after commit 827891a38acc ("ext4: update
the s_overhead_clusters in the backup sb's when resizing") in v6.0.

This patch avoids an attempt to resize the filesystem to an
unaligned cluster boundary.  An online resize to a size that is not
integral to cluster size results in the last iteration attempting to
grow the fs by a negative amount, which trips a BUG_ON and leaves the fs
with a corrupted in-memory superblock.

This patch avoids doing an O(n**2)-complexity walk through every flex group.
Instead, it uses the already computed overhead information for the newly
allocated space, and simply adds it to the previously calculated
overhead stored in the superblock.  This drastically reduces the time
taken to resize very large bigalloc filesystems (from 3+ hours for a
64TB fs down to milliseconds).

When the EXT4_IOC_RESIZE_FS ioctl is complete, update the backup
superblocks.  We don't do this for the old-style resize ioctls since
they are quite ancient, and only used by very old versions of
resize2fs --- and we don't want to update the backup superblocks every
time EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD is called, since it might get called a lot.

<title>ext4: update s_overhead_clusters in the superblock during an on-line resize</title>

When doing an online resize, the on-disk superblock on-disk wasn't
updated.  This means that when the file system is unmounted and
remounted, and the on-disk overhead value is non-zero, this would
result in the results of statfs(2) to be incorrect.

This was partially fixed by Commits 10b01ee92df5 ("ext4: fix overhead
calculation to account for the reserved gdt blocks"), 85d825dbf489
("ext4: force overhead calculation if the s_overhead_cluster makes no
sense"), and eb7054212eac ("ext4: update the cached overhead value in
the superblock").

However, since it was too expensive to forcibly recalculate the
overhead for bigalloc file systems at every mount, this didn't fix the
problem for bigalloc file systems.  This commit should address the
problem when resizing file systems with the bigalloc feature enabled.
