commit dfd56c2c0c0dbb11be939b804ddc8d5395ab3432 upstream.

When setting password salt in the superblock, we forget to recompute the
superblock checksum so it will not match until the next superblock
modification which recomputes the checksum. Fix it.

<title>ext4: fix bug for rename with RENAME_WHITEOUT</title>

[ Upstream commit 6b4b8e6b4ad8553660421d6360678b3811d5deb9 ]

We got a "deleted inode referenced" warning cross our fsstress test. The
bug can be reproduced easily with following steps:

  cd /dev/shm
  mkdir test/
  fallocate -l 128M img
  mkfs.ext4 -b 1024 img
  mount img test/
  dd if=/dev/zero of=test/foo bs=1M count=128
  mkdir test/dir/ &amp;&amp; cd test/dir/
  for ((i=0;i&lt;1000;i++)); do touch file$i; done # consume all block
  cd ~ &amp;&amp; renameat2(AT_FDCWD, /dev/shm/test/dir/file1, AT_FDCWD,
    /dev/shm/test/dir/dst_file, RENAME_WHITEOUT) # ext4_add_entry in
    ext4_rename will return ENOSPC!!
  cd /dev/shm/ &amp;&amp; umount test/ &amp;&amp; mount img test/ &amp;&amp; ls -li test/dir/file1
  We will get the output:
  "ls: cannot access 'test/dir/file1': Structure needs cleaning"
  and the dmesg show:
  "EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_lookup:1626: inode #2049: comm ls:
  deleted inode referenced: 139"

ext4_rename will create a special inode for whiteout and use this 'ino'
to replace the source file's dir entry 'ino'. Once error happens
latter(the error above was the ENOSPC return from ext4_add_entry in
ext4_rename since all space has been consumed), the cleanup do drop the
nlink for whiteout, but forget to restore 'ino' with source file. This
will trigger the bug describle as above.

<title>ext4: fix a memory leak of ext4_free_data</title>

commit cca415537244f6102cbb09b5b90db6ae2c953bdd upstream.

When freeing metadata, we will create an ext4_free_data and
insert it into the pending free list.  After the current
transaction is committed, the object will be freed.

ext4_mb_free_metadata() will check whether the area to be freed
overlaps with the pending free list. If true, return directly. At this
time, ext4_free_data is leaked.  Fortunately, the probability of this
problem is small, since it only occurs if the file system is corrupted
such that a block is claimed by more one inode and those inodes are
deleted within a single jbd2 transaction.

commit f902b216501094495ff75834035656e8119c537f upstream.

The idea of the warning in ext4_update_dx_flag() is that we should warn
when we are clearing EXT4_INODE_INDEX on a filesystem with metadata
checksums enabled since after clearing the flag, checksums for internal
htree nodes will become invalid. So there's no need to warn (or actually
do anything) when EXT4_INODE_INDEX is not set.

commit cb8d53d2c97369029cc638c9274ac7be0a316c75 upstream.

ext4_unregister_sysfs() only deletes the kobject.  The reference to it
needs to be put separately, like ext4_put_super() does.

This addresses the syzbot report
"memory leak in kobject_set_name_vargs (3)"
(https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=9f864abad79fae7c17e1).

commit 174fe5ba2d1ea0d6c5ab2a7d4aa058d6d497ae4d upstream.

The macro MOPT_Q is used to indicates the mount option is related to
quota stuff and is defined to be MOPT_NOSUPPORT when CONFIG_QUOTA is
disabled.  Normally the quota options are handled explicitly, so it
didn't matter that the MOPT_STRING flag was missing, even though the
usrjquota and grpjquota mount options take a string argument.  It's
important that's present in the !CONFIG_QUOTA case, since without
MOPT_STRING, the mount option matcher will match usrjquota= followed
by an integer, and will otherwise skip the table entry, and so "mount
option not supported" error message is never reported.

[ Fixed up the commit description to better explain why the fix
  works. --TYT ]

[ Upstream commit e0770e91424f694b461141cbc99adf6b23006b60 ]

When we try to use file already used as a quota file again (for the same
or different quota type), strange things can happen. At the very least
lockdep annotations may be wrong but also inode flags may be wrongly set
/ reset. When the file is used for two quota types at once we can even
corrupt the file and likely crash the kernel. Catch all these cases by
checking whether passed file is already used as quota file and bail
early in that case.

This fixes occasional generic/219 failure due to lockdep complaint.

[ Upstream commit e0770e91424f694b461141cbc99adf6b23006b60 ]

When we try to use file already used as a quota file again (for the same
or different quota type), strange things can happen. At the very least
lockdep annotations may be wrong but also inode flags may be wrongly set
/ reset. When the file is used for two quota types at once we can even
corrupt the file and likely crash the kernel. Catch all these cases by
checking whether passed file is already used as quota file and bail
early in that case.

This fixes occasional generic/219 failure due to lockdep complaint.

commit f5e55e777cc93eae1416f0fa4908e8846b6d7825 upstream.

Currently, trying to rename or link a regular file, directory, or
symlink into an encrypted directory fails with EPERM when the source
file is unencrypted or is encrypted with a different encryption policy,
and is on the same mountpoint.  It is correct for the operation to fail,
but the choice of EPERM breaks tools like 'mv' that know to copy rather
than rename if they see EXDEV, but don't know what to do with EPERM.

Our original motivation for EPERM was to encourage users to securely
handle their data.  Encrypting files by "moving" them into an encrypted
directory can be insecure because the unencrypted data may remain in
free space on disk, where it can later be recovered by an attacker.
It's much better to encrypt the data from the start, or at least try to
securely delete the source data e.g. using the 'shred' program.

However, the current behavior hasn't been effective at achieving its
goal because users tend to be confused, hack around it, and complain;
see e.g. https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/76.  And in some cases
it's actually inconsistent or unnecessary.  For example, 'mv'-ing files
between differently encrypted directories doesn't work even in cases
where it can be secure, such as when in userspace the same passphrase
protects both directories.  Yet, you *can* already 'mv' unencrypted
files into an encrypted directory if the source files are on a different
mountpoint, even though doing so is often insecure.

There are probably better ways to teach users to securely handle their
files.  For example, the 'fscrypt' userspace tool could provide a
command that migrates unencrypted files into an encrypted directory,
acting like 'shred' on the source files and providing appropriate
warnings depending on the type of the source filesystem and disk.

Receiving errors on unimportant files might also force some users to
disable encryption, thus making the behavior counterproductive.  It's
desirable to make encryption as unobtrusive as possible.

Therefore, change the error code from EPERM to EXDEV so that tools
looking for EXDEV will fall back to a copy.

This, of course, doesn't prevent users from still doing the right things
to securely manage their files.  Note that this also matches the
behavior when a file is renamed between two project quota hierarchies;
so there's precedent for using EXDEV for things other than mountpoints.

xfstests generic/398 will require an update with this change.

<title>ext4: fix potential negative array index in do_split()</title>

[ Upstream commit 5872331b3d91820e14716632ebb56b1399b34fe1 ]

If for any reason a directory passed to do_split() does not have enough
active entries to exceed half the size of the block, we can end up
iterating over all "count" entries without finding a split point.

In this case, count == move, and split will be zero, and we will
attempt a negative index into map[].

Guard against this by detecting this case, and falling back to
split-to-half-of-count instead; in this case we will still have
plenty of space (&gt; half blocksize) in each split block.
