[ Upstream commit 5dccdc5a1916d4266edd251f20bbbb113a5c495f ]

In ext4_rename(), when RENAME_WHITEOUT failed to add new entry into
directory, it ends up dropping new created whiteout inode under the
running transaction. After commit &lt;9b88f9fb0d2&gt; ("ext4: Do not iput inode
under running transaction"), we follow the assumptions that evict() does
not get called from a transaction context but in ext4_rename() it breaks
this suggestion. Although it's not a real problem, better to obey it, so
this patch add inode to orphan list and stop transaction before final
iput().

<title>ext4: shrink race window in ext4_should_retry_alloc()</title>

[ Upstream commit efc61345274d6c7a46a0570efbc916fcbe3e927b ]

When generic/371 is run on kvm-xfstests using 5.10 and 5.11 kernels, it
fails at significant rates on the two test scenarios that disable
delayed allocation (ext3conv and data_journal) and force actual block
allocation for the fallocate and pwrite functions in the test.  The
failure rate on 5.10 for both ext3conv and data_journal on one test
system typically runs about 85%.  On 5.11, the failure rate on ext3conv
sometimes drops to as low as 1% while the rate on data_journal
increases to nearly 100%.

The observed failures are largely due to ext4_should_retry_alloc()
cutting off block allocation retries when s_mb_free_pending (used to
indicate that a transaction in progress will free blocks) is 0.
However, free space is usually available when this occurs during runs
of generic/371.  It appears that a thread attempting to allocate
blocks is just missing transaction commits in other threads that
increase the free cluster count and reset s_mb_free_pending while
the allocating thread isn't running.  Explicitly testing for free space
availability avoids this race.

The current code uses a post-increment operator in the conditional
expression that determines whether the retry limit has been exceeded.
This means that the conditional expression uses the value of the
retry counter before it's increased, resulting in an extra retry cycle.
The current code actually retries twice before hitting its retry limit
rather than once.

Increasing the retry limit to 3 from the current actual maximum retry
count of 2 in combination with the change described above reduces the
observed failure rate to less that 0.1% on both ext3conv and
data_journal with what should be limited impact on users sensitive to
the overhead caused by retries.

A per filesystem percpu counter exported via sysfs is added to allow
users or developers to track the number of times the retry limit is
exceeded without resorting to debugging methods.  This should provide
some insight into worst case retry behavior.

commit 163f0ec1df33cf468509ff38cbcbb5eb0d7fac60 upstream.

Syzbot is reporting that ext4 can enter fs reclaim from kvmalloc() while
the transaction is started like:

  fs_reclaim_acquire+0x117/0x150 mm/page_alloc.c:4340
  might_alloc include/linux/sched/mm.h:193 [inline]
  slab_pre_alloc_hook mm/slab.h:493 [inline]

  kmalloc_node include/linux/slab.h:575 [inline]
  kvmalloc_node+0x61/0xf0 mm/util.c:587
  kvmalloc include/linux/mm.h:781 [inline]
  ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find fs/ext4/xattr.c:1465 [inline]
  ext4_xattr_inode_lookup_create fs/ext4/xattr.c:1508 [inline]
  ext4_xattr_set_entry+0x1ce6/0x3780 fs/ext4/xattr.c:1649

  ext4_xattr_set+0x13a/0x340 fs/ext4/xattr.c:2493

This should be impossible since transaction start sets PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS.
Add some assertions to the code to catch if something isn't working as
expected early.

commit 6b22489911b726eebbf169caee52fea52013fbdd upstream.

Syzbot report a warning that ext4 may create an empty ea_inode if set
an empty extent attribute to a file on the file system which is no free
blocks left.

  WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 10667 at fs/ext4/xattr.c:1640 ext4_xattr_set_entry+0x10f8/0x1114 fs/ext4/xattr.c:1640

Now, ext4 try to store extent attribute into an external inode if
ext4_xattr_block_set() return -ENOSPC, but for the case of store an
empty extent attribute, store the extent entry into the extent
attribute block is enough. A simple reproduce below.

  fallocate test.img -l 1M

  mount test.img /mnt
  dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/foo bs=2048 count=500

commit b7ff91fd030dc9d72ed91b1aab36e445a003af4f upstream.

If we failed to add new entry on rename whiteout, we cannot reset the
old-&gt;de entry directly, because the old-&gt;de could have moved from under
us during make indexed dir. So find the old entry again before reset is
needed, otherwise it may corrupt the filesystem as below.

  /dev/sda: Entry '00000001' in ??? (12) has deleted/unused inode 15. CLEARED.
  /dev/sda: Unattached inode 75
  /dev/sda: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.

commit b7ff91fd030dc9d72ed91b1aab36e445a003af4f upstream.

If we failed to add new entry on rename whiteout, we cannot reset the
old-&gt;de entry directly, because the old-&gt;de could have moved from under
us during make indexed dir. So find the old entry again before reset is
needed, otherwise it may corrupt the filesystem as below.

  /dev/sda: Entry '00000001' in ??? (12) has deleted/unused inode 15. CLEARED.
  /dev/sda: Unattached inode 75
  /dev/sda: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.

Fixes: 6b4b8e6b4ad ("ext4: fix bug for rename with RENAME_WHITEOUT")

[ Upstream commit b5776e7524afbd4569978ff790864755c438bba7 ]

In the case where we need to do an interior node split, and
immediately afterwards, we are unable to allocate a new directory leaf
block due to ENOSPC, the directory index checksum's will not be filled
in correctly (and indeed, will not be correctly journalled).

This looks like a bug that was introduced when we added largedir
support.  The original code doesn't make any sense (and should have
been caught in code review), but it was hidden because most of the
time, the index node checksum will be set by do_split().  But if
do_split bails out due to ENOSPC, then ext4_handle_dirty_dx_node()
won't get called, and so the directory index checksum field will not
get set, leading to:

EXT4-fs error (device sdb): dx_probe:858: inode #6635543: block 4022: comm nfsd: Directory index failed checksum

<title>writeback: Drop I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE</title>

commit 5fcd57505c002efc5823a7355e21f48dd02d5a51 upstream.

The only use of I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE is to detect in
__writeback_single_inode() that inode got there because flush worker
decided it's time to writeback the dirty inode time stamps (either
because we are syncing or because of age). However we can detect this
directly in __writeback_single_inode() and there's no need for the
strange propagation with I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE flag.

<title>ext4: fix superblock checksum failure when setting password salt</title>

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.
