commit 23dfdb56581ad92a9967bcd720c8c23356af74c1 upstream.

The following kernel trace can be triggered with fstest generic/629 when
executed against a filesystem with fast-commit feature enabled:

INFO: trying to register non-static key.
The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe
you didn't initialize this object before use?
turning off the locking correctness validator.

In the replay path there's an attempt to lock sbi-&gt;s_bdev_wb_lock in
function ext4_check_bdev_write_error().  Unfortunately, at this point this
spinlock has not been initialized yet.  Moving it's initialization to an
earlier point in __ext4_fill_super() fixes this splat.

<title>ext4: partial zero eof block on unaligned inode size extension</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit c7fc0366c65628fd69bfc310affec4918199aae2 ]

Using mapped writes, it's technically possible to expose stale
post-eof data on a truncate up operation. Consider the following
example:

$ xfs_io -fc "pwrite 0 2k" -c "mmap 0 4k" -c "mwrite 2k 2k" \
	-c "truncate 8k" -c "pread -v 2k 16" &lt;file&gt;
...
00000800:  58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58 58  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
...

This shows that the post-eof data written via mwrite lands within
EOF after a truncate up. While this is deliberate of the test case,
behavior is somewhat unpredictable because writeback does post-eof
zeroing, and writeback can occur at any time in the background. For
example, an fsync inserted between the mwrite and truncate causes
the subsequent read to instead return zeroes. This basically means
that there is a race window in this situation between any subsequent
extending operation and writeback that dictates whether post-eof
data is exposed to the file or zeroed.

To prevent this problem, perform partial block zeroing as part of
the various inode size extending operations that are susceptible to
it. For truncate extension, zero around the original eof similar to
how truncate down does partial zeroing of the new eof. For extension
via writes and fallocate related operations, zero the newly exposed
range of the file to cover any partial zeroing that must occur at
the original and new eof blocks.

<title>ext4: fix FS_IOC_GETFSMAP handling</title>

commit 4a622e4d477bb12ad5ed4abbc7ad1365de1fa347 upstream.

The original implementation ext4's FS_IOC_GETFSMAP handling only
worked when the range of queried blocks included at least one free
(unallocated) block range.  This is because how the metadata blocks
were emitted was as a side effect of ext4_mballoc_query_range()
calling ext4_getfsmap_datadev_helper(), and that function was only
called when a free block range was identified.  As a result, this
caused generic/365 to fail.

Fix this by creating a new function ext4_getfsmap_meta_helper() which
gets called so that blocks before the first free block range in a
block group can get properly reported.

commit 902cc179c931a033cd7f4242353aa2733bf8524c upstream.

find_group_other() and find_group_orlov() read *_lo, *_hi with
ext4_free_inodes_count without additional locking. This can cause
data-race warning, but since the lock is held for most writes and free
inodes value is generally not a problem even if it is incorrect, it is
more appropriate to use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() than to add locking.

[ Upstream commit 2f3d93e210b9c2866c8b3662adae427d5bf511ec ]

When I enabled ext4 debug for fault injection testing, I encountered the
following warning:

  EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_read_inode_bitmap:201: comm fsstress:
         Cannot read inode bitmap - block_group = 8, inode_bitmap = 1051
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 511 at fs/buffer.c:1181 mark_buffer_dirty+0x1b3/0x1d0

The root cause of the issue lies in the improper implementation of ext4's
buffer_head read fault injection. The actual completion of buffer_head
read and the buffer_head fault injection are not atomic, which can lead
to the uptodate flag being cleared on normally used buffer_heads in race
conditions.

The best approach would be to perform fault injection in the IO completion
callback function, rather than after IO completion. However, the IO
completion callback function cannot get the fault injection code in sb.

Fix it by passing the result of fault injection into the bh read function,
we simulate faults within the bh read function itself. This requires adding
an extra parameter to the bh read functions that need fault injection.

[ Upstream commit a40759fb16ae839f8c769174fde017564ea564ff ]

Iterate the folio's list of buffer_heads twice instead of keeping
an array of pointers.  This solves a too-large-array-for-stack problem
on architectures with a ridiculoously large PAGE_SIZE and prepares
ext4 to support larger folios.

Instead of synchronously reading one buffer at a time, submit reads
as we walk the buffers in the first loop, then wait for them in the
second loop.  This should be significantly more efficient, particularly
on HDDs, but I have not measured.

<title>ext4: avoid remount errors with 'abort' mount option</title>

[ Upstream commit 76486b104168ae59703190566e372badf433314b ]

When we remount filesystem with 'abort' mount option while changing
other mount options as well (as is LTP test doing), we can return error
from the system call after commit d3476f3dad4a ("ext4: don't set
SB_RDONLY after filesystem errors") because the application of mount
option changes detects shutdown filesystem and refuses to do anything.
The behavior of application of other mount options in presence of
'abort' mount option is currently rather arbitary as some mount option
changes are handled before 'abort' and some after it.

Move aborting of the filesystem to the end of remount handling so all
requested changes are properly applied before the filesystem is shutdown
to have a reasonably consistent behavior.
