commit 7cb74be6fd827e314f81df3c5889b87e4c87c569 upstream.

Pages looked up by __hfs_bnode_create() (called by hfs_bnode_create() and
hfs_bnode_find() for finding or creating pages corresponding to an inode)
are immediately kmap()'ed and used (both read and write) and kunmap()'ed,
and should not be page_cache_release()'ed until hfs_bnode_free().

This patch fixes a problem I first saw in July 2012: merely running "du"
on a large hfsplus-mounted directory a few times on a reasonably loaded
system would get the hfsplus driver all confused and complaining about
B-tree inconsistencies, and generates a "BUG: Bad page state".  Most
recently, I can generate this problem on up-to-date Fedora 22 with shipped
kernel 4.0.5, by running "du /" (="/" + "/home" + "/mnt" + other smaller
mounts) and "du /mnt" simultaneously on two windows, where /mnt is a
lightly-used QEMU VM image of the full Mac OS X 10.9:

$ df -i / /home /mnt
Filesystem                  Inodes   IUsed      IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/fedora-root    3276800  551665    2725135   17% /
/dev/mapper/fedora-home   52879360  716221   52163139    2% /home
/dev/nbd0p2             4294967295 1387818 4293579477    1% /mnt

After applying the patch, I was able to run "du /" (60+ times) and "du
/mnt" (150+ times) continuously and simultaneously for 6+ hours.

There are many reports of the hfsplus driver getting confused under load
and generating "BUG: Bad page state" or other similar issues over the
years.  [1]

The unpatched code [2] has always been wrong since it entered the kernel
tree.  The only reason why it gets away with it is that the
kmap/memcpy/kunmap follow very quickly after the page_cache_release() so
the kernel has not had a chance to reuse the memory for something else,
most of the time.

The current RW driver appears to have followed the design and development
of the earlier read-only hfsplus driver [3], where-by version 0.1 (Dec
2001) had a B-tree node-centric approach to
read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put(),
migrating towards version 0.2 (June 2002) of caching and releasing pages
per inode extents.  When the current RW code first entered the kernel [2]
in 2005, there was an REF_PAGES conditional (and "//" commented out code)
to switch between B-node centric paging to inode-centric paging.  There
was a mistake with the direction of one of the REF_PAGES conditionals in
__hfs_bnode_create().  In a subsequent "remove debug code" commit [4], the
read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put() were
removed, but a page_cache_release() was mistakenly left in (propagating
the "REF_PAGES &lt;-&gt; !REF_PAGE" mistake), and the commented-out
page_cache_release() in bnode_release() (which should be spanned by
!REF_PAGES) was never enabled.

<title>hfsplus: fix B-tree corruption after insertion at position 0</title>

commit 98cf21c61a7f5419d82f847c4d77bf6e96a76f5f upstream.

Fix B-tree corruption when a new record is inserted at position 0 in the
node in hfs_brec_insert().  In this case a hfs_brec_update_parent() is
called to update the parent index node (if exists) and it is passed
hfs_find_data with a search_key containing a newly inserted key instead
of the key to be updated.  This results in an inconsistent index node.
The bug reproduces on my machine after an extents overflow record for
the catalog file (CNID=4) is inserted into the extents overflow B-tree.
Because of a low (reserved) value of CNID=4, it has to become the first
record in the first leaf node.

The resulting first leaf node is correct:

  ----------------------------------------------------
  | key0.CNID=4 | key1.CNID=123 | key2.CNID=456, ... |
  ----------------------------------------------------

But the parent index key0 still contains the previous key CNID=123:

  -----------------------
  | key0.CNID=123 | ... |
  -----------------------

A change in hfs_brec_insert() makes hfs_brec_update_parent() work
correctly by preventing it from getting fd-&gt;record=-1 value from
__hfs_brec_find().

Along the way, I removed duplicate code with unification of the if
condition.  The resulting code is equivalent to the original code
because node is never 0.

Also hfs_brec_update_parent() will now return an error after getting a
negative fd-&gt;record value.  However, the return value of
hfs_brec_update_parent() is not checked anywhere in the file and I'm
leaving it unchanged by this patch.  brec.c lacks error checking after
some other calls too, but this issue is of less importance than the one
being fixed by this patch.

<id>d7d673a591701f131e53d4fd4e2b9352f1316642</id>
<content type='text'>
Adds support for HFSX 'HasFolderCount' flag and a corresponding
'folderCount' field in folder records.  (For reference see
HFS_FOLDERCOUNT and kHFSHasFolderCountBit/kHFSHasFolderCountMask in
Apple's source code.)

Ignoring subfolder count leads to fs errors found by Mac:

  ...
  Checking catalog hierarchy.
  HasFolderCount flag needs to be set (id = 105)
  (It should be 0x10 instead of 0)
  Incorrect folder count in a directory (id = 2)
  (It should be 7 instead of 6)
  ...

Steps to reproduce:
 Format with "newfs_hfs -s /dev/diskXXX".
 Mount in Linux.
 Create a new directory in root.
 Unmount.
 Run "fsck_hfs /dev/diskXXX".

The patch handles directory creation, deletion, and rename.

Current implementation of HFS+ driver has small issue with remount
option.  Namely, for example, you are unable to remount from RO mode
into RW mode by means of command "mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0
/mnt/hfsplus".  Trying to execute sequence of commands results in an
error message:

  mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus
  mount -o remount,ro /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus
  mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus

  mount: you must specify the filesystem type

  mount -t hfsplus -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus

  mount: /mnt/hfsplus not mounted or bad option

The reason of such issue is failure of mount syscall:

  mount("/dev/loop0", "/mnt/hfsplus", 0x2282a60, MS_MGC_VAL|MS_REMOUNT, NULL) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

Namely, hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method receives empty "input"
argument and return false in such case.  As a result, hfsplus_remount()
returns -EINVAL error code.

This patch fixes the issue by means of return true for the case of empty
"input" argument in hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method.

Current implementation of HFS+ driver has small issue with remount
option.  Namely, for example, you are unable to remount from RO mode
into RW mode by means of command "mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0
/mnt/hfsplus".  Trying to execute sequence of commands results in an
error message:

  mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus
  mount -o remount,ro /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus
  mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus

  mount: you must specify the filesystem type

  mount -t hfsplus -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus

  mount: /mnt/hfsplus not mounted or bad option

The reason of such issue is failure of mount syscall:

  mount("/dev/loop0", "/mnt/hfsplus", 0x2282a60, MS_MGC_VAL|MS_REMOUNT, NULL) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

Namely, hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method receives empty "input"
argument and return false in such case.  As a result, hfsplus_remount()
returns -EINVAL error code.

This patch fixes the issue by means of return true for the case of empty

hfsplus was already using the handlers for get and set operations,
and with the removal of can_set_xattr we've now allow operations that
wouldn't otherwise be allowed.

With this we can also centralize the special-casing of the osx.
attrs that don't have prefixes on disk in the osx xattr handlers.

Pull core block IO changes from Jens Axboe:
 "The major piece in here is the immutable bio_ve series from Kent, the
  rest is fairly minor.  It was supposed to go in last round, but
  various issues pushed it to this release instead.  The pull request
  contains:

   - Various smaller blk-mq fixes from different folks.  Nothing major
     here, just minor fixes and cleanups.

   - Fix for a memory leak in the error path in the block ioctl code
     from Christian Engelmayer.

   - Header export fix from CaiZhiyong.

   - Finally the immutable biovec changes from Kent Overstreet.  This
     enables some nice future work on making arbitrarily sized bios
     possible, and splitting more efficient.  Related fixes to immutable
     bio_vecs:

        - dm-cache immutable fixup from Mike Snitzer.
        - btrfs immutable fixup from Muthu Kumar.

  - bio-integrity fix from Nic Bellinger, which is also going to stable"

* 'for-3.14/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (44 commits)
  xtensa: fixup simdisk driver to work with immutable bio_vecs
  block/blk-mq-cpu.c: use hotcpu_notifier()

  bio-integrity: Fix bio_integrity_verify segment start bug
  block: remove unrelated header files and export symbol
  blk-mq: uses page-&gt;list incorrectly

When using the per-superblock xattr handlers permission checking is
done by the generic code.  hfsplus just needs to check for the magic
osx attribute not to leak into protected namespaces.

Also given that the code was obviously copied from JFS the proper
attribution was missing.
