nilfs2: fix use-after-free bug of ns_writer on remount

2022-11-25T16:35:42+00:00

commit 8cccf05fe857a18ee26e20d11a8455a73ffd4efd upstream.

If a nilfs2 filesystem is downgraded to read-only due to metadata
corruption on disk and is remounted read/write, or if emergency read-only
remount is performed, detaching a log writer and synchronizing the
filesystem can be done at the same time.

In these cases, use-after-free of the log writer (hereinafter
nilfs->ns_writer) can happen as shown in the scenario below:

 Task1                               Task2
 --------------------------------    ------------------------------
 nilfs_construct_segment
   nilfs_segctor_sync
     init_wait
     init_waitqueue_entry
     add_wait_queue
     schedule
                                     nilfs_remount (R/W remount case)
				       nilfs_attach_log_writer
                                         nilfs_detach_log_writer
                                           nilfs_segctor_destroy
                                             kfree
     finish_wait
       _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
         __raw_spin_lock_irqsave
           do_raw_spin_lock
             debug_spin_lock_before  <-- use-after-free

While Task1 is sleeping, nilfs->ns_writer is freed by Task2.  After Task1
waked up, Task1 accesses nilfs->ns_writer which is already freed.  This
scenario diagram is based on the Shigeru Yoshida's post [1].

This patch fixes the issue by not detaching nilfs->ns_writer on remount so
that this UAF race doesn't happen.  Along with this change, this patch
also inserts a few necessary read-only checks with superblock instance
where only the ns_writer pointer was used to check if the filesystem is
read-only.

nilfs2: replace WARN_ONs by nilfs_error for checkpoint acquisition failure

2022-10-26T11:15:35+00:00

commit 723ac751208f6d6540191689cfbf6c77135a7a1b upstream.

If creation or finalization of a checkpoint fails due to anomalies in the
checkpoint metadata on disk, a kernel warning is generated.

This patch replaces the WARN_ONs by nilfs_error, so that a kernel, booted
with panic_on_warn, does not panic.  A nilfs_error is appropriate here to
handle the abnormal filesystem condition.

This also replaces the detected error codes with an I/O error so that
neither of the internal error codes is returned to callers.

nilfs2: fix leak of nilfs_root in case of writer thread creation failure

2022-10-26T11:15:35+00:00

commit d0d51a97063db4704a5ef6bc978dddab1636a306 upstream.

If nilfs_attach_log_writer() failed to create a log writer thread, it
frees a data structure of the log writer without any cleanup.  After
commit e912a5b66837 ("nilfs2: use root object to get ifile"), this causes
a leak of struct nilfs_root, which started to leak an ifile metadata inode
and a kobject on that struct.

In addition, if the kernel is booted with panic_on_warn, the above
ifile metadata inode leak will cause the following panic when the
nilfs2 kernel module is removed:

nilfs2: fix null pointer dereference at nilfs_segctor_do_construct()

2020-06-20T08:24:09+00:00

commit 8301c719a2bd131436438e49130ee381d30933f5 upstream.

After commit c3aab9a0bd91 ("mm/filemap.c: don't initiate writeback if
mapping has no dirty pages"), the following null pointer dereference has
been reported on nilfs2:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000a8
  #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
  PGD 0 P4D 0
  Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
  ...
  RIP: 0010:percpu_counter_add_batch+0xa/0x60

    nilfs_segctor_thread+0x127/0x3b0 [nilfs2]
    kthread+0xf8/0x130
    ...

This crash turned out to be caused by set_page_writeback() call for
segment summary buffers at nilfs_segctor_prepare_write().

set_page_writeback() can call inc_wb_stat(inode_to_wb(inode),
WB_WRITEBACK) where inode_to_wb(inode) is NULL if the inode of
underlying block device does not have an associated wb.

This fixes the issue by calling inode_attach_wb() in advance to ensure
to associate the bdev inode with its wb.

nilfs2: fix race condition that causes file system corruption

2017-11-30T08:39:03+00:00

commit 31ccb1f7ba3cfe29631587d451cf5bb8ab593550 upstream.

There is a race condition between nilfs_dirty_inode() and
nilfs_set_file_dirty().

When a file is opened, nilfs_dirty_inode() is called to update the
access timestamp in the inode. It calls __nilfs_mark_inode_dirty() in a
separate transaction. __nilfs_mark_inode_dirty() caches the ifile
buffer_head in the i_bh field of the inode info structure and marks it
as dirty.

After some data was written to the file in another transaction, the
function nilfs_set_file_dirty() is called, which adds the inode to the
ns_dirty_files list.

Then the segment construction calls nilfs_segctor_collect_dirty_files(),
which goes through the ns_dirty_files list and checks the i_bh field.
If there is a cached buffer_head in i_bh it is not marked as dirty
again.

Since nilfs_dirty_inode() and nilfs_set_file_dirty() use separate
transactions, it is possible that a segment construction that writes out
the ifile occurs in-between the two. If this happens the inode is not
on the ns_dirty_files list, but its ifile block is still marked as dirty
and written out.

In the next segment construction, the data for the file is written out
and nilfs_bmap_propagate() updates the b-tree. Eventually the bmap root
is written into the i_bh block, which is not dirty, because it was
written out in another segment construction.

As a result the bmap update can be lost, which leads to file system
corruption. Either the virtual block address points to an unallocated
DAT block, or the DAT entry will be reused for something different.

The error can remain undetected for a long time. A typical error
message would be one of the "bad btree" errors or a warning that a DAT
entry could not be found.

This bug can be reproduced reliably by a simple benchmark that creates
and overwrites millions of 4k files.

fs: add i_blocksize()

2017-06-14T13:06:00+00:00

commit 93407472a21b82f39c955ea7787e5bc7da100642 upstream.

Replace all 1 << inode->i_blkbits and (1 << inode->i_blkbits) in fs
branch.

This patch also fixes multiple checkpatch warnings: WARNING: Prefer
'unsigned int' to bare use of 'unsigned'

Thanks to Andrew Morton for suggesting more appropriate function instead
of macro.

Use cond_resched() instead of yield() in the loop of
nilfs_transaction_lock() since the usage corresponds to the "be nice for
others" case that the comment of yield() says.

This removes the following checkpatch.pl warning:

 "WARNING: Using yield() is generally wrong. See yield() kernel-doc
  (sched/core.c)"

Use nilfs_msg() to output warning messages and get rid of
nilfs_warning() function.  This also removes function names from the
messages unless we embed them explicitly in format strings.  Instead,
some messages are revised to clarify the context.
