commit eb1f822c76beeaa76ab8b6737ab9dc9f9798408c upstream.

In commit a44be64bbecb ("ext4: don't clear SB_RDONLY when remounting
r/w until quota is re-enabled") we defer clearing tyhe SB_RDONLY flag
in struct super.  However, we didn't defer when we checked sb_rdonly()
to determine the lazy itable init thread should be enabled, with the
next result that the lazy inode table initialization would not be
properly started.  This can cause generic/231 to fail in ext4's
nojournal mode.

Fix this by moving when we decide to start or stop the lazy itable
init thread to after we clear the SB_RDONLY flag when we are
remounting the file system read/write.

Fixes a44be64bbecb ("ext4: don't clear SB_RDONLY when remounting r/w until...")

commit aff3bea95388299eec63440389b4545c8041b357 upstream.

Treat i_data_sem for ea_inodes as being in their own lockdep class to
avoid lockdep complaints about ext4_setattr's use of inode_lock() on
normal inodes potentially causing lock ordering with i_data_sem on
ea_inodes in ext4_xattr_inode_write().  However, ea_inodes will be
operated on by ext4_setattr(), so this isn't a problem.

commit 2bc7e7c1a3bc9bd0cbf0f71006f6fe7ef24a00c2 upstream.

An ea_inode stores the value of an extended attribute; it can not have
extended attributes itself, or this will cause recursive nightmares.
Add a check in ext4_iget() to make sure this is the case.

commit b928dfdcb27d8fa59917b794cfba53052a2f050f upstream.

If the ea_inode has been pushed out of the inode cache while there is
still a reference in the mb_cache, the lockdep subclass will not be
set on the inode, which can lead to some lockdep false positives.

commit b3e6bcb94590dea45396b9481e47b809b1be4afa upstream.

Add a new flag, EXT4_IGET_EA_INODE which indicates whether the inode
is expected to have the EA_INODE flag or not.  If the flag is not
set/clear as expected, then fail the iget() operation and mark the
file system as corrupted.

This commit also makes the ext4_iget() always perform the
is_bad_inode() check even when the inode is already inode cache.  This
allows us to remove the is_bad_inode() check from the callers of
ext4_iget() in the ea_inode code.

<title>ext4: Fix best extent lstart adjustment logic in ext4_mb_new_inode_pa()</title>

[ Upstream commit 93cdf49f6eca5e23f6546b8f28457b2e6a6961d9 ]

When the length of best extent found is less than the length of goal extent
we need to make sure that the best extent atleast covers the start of the
original request. This is done by adjusting the ac_b_ex.fe_logical (logical
start) of the extent.

While doing so, the current logic sometimes results in the best extent's
logical range overflowing the goal extent. Since this best extent is later
added to the inode preallocation list, we have a possibility of introducing
overlapping preallocations. This is discussed in detail here [1].

As per Jan's suggestion, to fix this, replace the existing logic with the
below logic for adjusting best extent as it keeps fragmentation in check
while ensuring logical range of best extent doesn't overflow out of goal
extent:

1. Check if best extent can be kept at end of goal range and still cover
   original start.
2. Else, check if best extent can be kept at start of goal range and still
   cover original start.
3. Else, keep the best extent at start of original request.

Also, add a few extra BUG_ONs that might help catch errors faster.

<title>ext4: allow ext4_get_group_info() to fail</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 5354b2af34064a4579be8bc0e2f15a7b70f14b5f ]

Previously, ext4_get_group_info() would treat an invalid group number
as BUG(), since in theory it should never happen.  However, if a
malicious attaker (or fuzzer) modifies the superblock via the block
device while it is the file system is mounted, it is possible for
s_first_data_block to get set to a very large number.  In that case,
when calculating the block group of some block number (such as the
starting block of a preallocation region), could result in an
underflow and very large block group number.  Then the BUG_ON check in
ext4_get_group_info() would fire, resutling in a denial of service
attack that can be triggered by root or someone with write access to
the block device.

For a quality of implementation perspective, it's best that even if
the system administrator does something that they shouldn't, that it
will not trigger a BUG.  So instead of BUG'ing, ext4_get_group_info()
will call ext4_error and return NULL.  We also add fallback code in
all of the callers of ext4_get_group_info() that it might NULL.

Also, since ext4_get_group_info() was already borderline to be an
inline function, un-inline it.  The results in a next reduction of the
compiled text size of ext4 by roughly 2k.

[ Upstream commit 5354b2af34064a4579be8bc0e2f15a7b70f14b5f ]

Previously, ext4_get_group_info() would treat an invalid group number
as BUG(), since in theory it should never happen.  However, if a
malicious attaker (or fuzzer) modifies the superblock via the block
device while it is the file system is mounted, it is possible for
s_first_data_block to get set to a very large number.  In that case,
when calculating the block group of some block number (such as the
starting block of a preallocation region), could result in an
underflow and very large block group number.  Then the BUG_ON check in
ext4_get_group_info() would fire, resutling in a denial of service
attack that can be triggered by root or someone with write access to
the block device.

For a quality of implementation perspective, it's best that even if
the system administrator does something that they shouldn't, that it
will not trigger a BUG.  So instead of BUG'ing, ext4_get_group_info()
will call ext4_error and return NULL.  We also add fallback code in
all of the callers of ext4_get_group_info() that it might NULL.

Also, since ext4_get_group_info() was already borderline to be an
inline function, un-inline it.  The results in a next reduction of the
compiled text size of ext4 by roughly 2k.

[ Upstream commit 01e4ca29451760b9ac10b4cdc231c52150842643 ]

If EXT4_MB_HINT_GOAL_ONLY is set, ext4_mb_regular_allocator will only
allocate blocks from ext4_mb_find_by_goal. Allow to find by goal in
ext4_mb_find_by_goal if EXT4_MB_HINT_GOAL_ONLY is set or allocation
with EXT4_MB_HINT_GOAL_ONLY set will always fail.

EXT4_MB_HINT_GOAL_ONLY is not used at all, so the problem is not
found for now.

<title>ext4: don't clear SB_RDONLY when remounting r/w until quota is re-enabled</title>

[ Upstream commit a44be64bbecb15a452496f60db6eacfee2b59c79 ]

When a file system currently mounted read/only is remounted
read/write, if we clear the SB_RDONLY flag too early, before the quota
is initialized, and there is another process/thread constantly
attempting to create a directory, it's possible to trigger the

	WARN_ON_ONCE(dquot_initialize_needed(inode));

in ext4_xattr_block_set(), with the following stack trace:
