commit 4e19d6b65fb4fc42e352ce9883649e049da14743 upstream.

The largedir feature was intended to allow ext4 directories to have
unmapped directory blocks (e.g., directory holes).  And so the
released e2fsprogs no longer enforces this for largedir file systems;
however, the corresponding change to the kernel-side code was not made.

This commit fixes this oversight.

commit 73131fbb003b3691cfcf9656f234b00da497fcd6 upstream.

Use the newly introduced jbd2_inode dirty range scoping to prevent us
from waiting forever when trying to complete a journal transaction.

<title>ext4: enforce the immutable flag on open files</title>

commit 02b016ca7f99229ae6227e7b2fc950c4e140d74a upstream.

According to the chattr man page, "a file with the 'i' attribute
cannot be modified..."  Historically, this was only enforced when the
file was opened, per the rest of the description, "... and the file
can not be opened in write mode".

There is general agreement that we should standardize all file systems
to prevent modifications even for files that were opened at the time
the immutable flag is set.  Eventually, a change to enforce this at
the VFS layer should be landing in mainline.  Until then, enforce this
at the ext4 level to prevent xfstests generic/553 from failing.

commit 2e53840362771c73eb0a5ff71611507e64e8eecd upstream.

Don't allow any modifications to a file that's marked immutable, which
means that we have to flush all the writable pages to make the readonly
and we have to check the setattr/setflags parameters more closely.

Found by visual inspection, this wasn't caught by my xfstest, since it's
effect is ignoring positive dentries in the cache the fallback just goes
to the disk.  it was introduced in the last iteration of the
case-insensitive patch.

d_compare should return 0 when the entries match, so make sure we are
correctly comparing the entire string if the encoding feature is set and
we are on a case-INsensitive directory.

It is possible that unlinked inode enters ext4_setattr() (e.g. if
somebody calls ftruncate(2) on unlinked but still open file). In such
case we should not delete the inode from the orphan list if truncate
fails. Note that this is mostly a theoretical concern as filesystem is
corrupted if we reach this path anyway but let's be consistent in our
orphan handling.

We didn't wait for outstanding direct IO during truncate in nojournal
mode (as we skip orphan handling in that case). This can lead to fs
corruption or stale data exposure if truncate ends up freeing blocks
and these get reallocated before direct IO finishes. Fix the condition
determining whether the wait is necessary.

Since the journal inode is already checked when we added it to the
block validity's system zone, if we check it again, we'll just trigger
a failure.

This was causing failures like this:

[   53.897001] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_find_extent:909: inode
#8: comm jbd2/sda-8: pblk 121667583 bad header/extent: invalid extent entries - magic f30a, entries 8, max 340(340), depth 0(0)
[   53.931430] jbd2_journal_bmap: journal block not found at offset 49 on sda-8
[   53.938480] Aborting journal on device sda-8.

... but only if the system was under enough memory pressure that
logical-&gt;physical mapping for the journal inode gets pushed out of the
extent cache.  (This is why it wasn't noticed earlier.)
