commit 28a65b49eb53e172d23567005465019658bfdb4d upstream.

According to syzbot's report, mark_buffer_dirty() called from
nilfs_segctor_do_construct() outputs a warning with some patterns after
nilfs2 detects metadata corruption and degrades to read-only mode.

After such read-only degeneration, page cache data may be cleared through
nilfs_clear_dirty_page() which may also clear the uptodate flag for their
buffer heads.  However, even after the degeneration, log writes are still
performed by unmount processing etc., which causes mark_buffer_dirty() to
be called for buffer heads without the "uptodate" flag and causes the
warning.

Since any writes should not be done to a read-only file system in the
first place, this fixes the warning in mark_buffer_dirty() by letting
nilfs_segctor_do_construct() abort early if in read-only mode.

This also changes the retry check of nilfs_segctor_write_out() to avoid
unnecessary log write retries if it detects -EROFS that
nilfs_segctor_do_construct() returned.

commit ef832747a82dfbc22a3702219cc716f449b24e4a upstream.

Syzbot still reports uninit-value in nilfs_add_checksums_on_logs() for
KMSAN enabled kernels after applying commit 7397031622e0 ("nilfs2:
initialize "struct nilfs_binfo_dat"-&gt;bi_pad field").

This is because the unused bytes at the end of each block in segment
summaries are not initialized.  So this fixes the issue by padding the
unused bytes with null bytes.

<title>nilfs2: fix potential UAF of struct nilfs_sc_info in nilfs_segctor_thread()</title>

commit 6be49d100c22ffea3287a4b19d7639d259888e33 upstream.

The finalization of nilfs_segctor_thread() can race with
nilfs_segctor_kill_thread() which terminates that thread, potentially
causing a use-after-free BUG as KASAN detected.

At the end of nilfs_segctor_thread(), it assigns NULL to "sc_task" member
of "struct nilfs_sc_info" to indicate the thread has finished, and then
notifies nilfs_segctor_kill_thread() of this using waitqueue
"sc_wait_task" on the struct nilfs_sc_info.

However, here, immediately after the NULL assignment to "sc_task", it is
possible that nilfs_segctor_kill_thread() will detect it and return to
continue the deallocation, freeing the nilfs_sc_info structure before the
thread does the notification.

This fixes the issue by protecting the NULL assignment to "sc_task" and
its notification, with spinlock "sc_state_lock" of the struct
nilfs_sc_info.  Since nilfs_segctor_kill_thread() does a final check to
see if "sc_task" is NULL with "sc_state_lock" locked, this can eliminate
the race.

<title>treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()</title>

<id>292a089d78d3e2f7944e60bb897c977785a321e3</id>
<content type='text'>
Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.

The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
the timer-&gt;function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.

This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
commands:

    $ cat timer.cocci
    @@
    expression ptr, slab;
    identifier timer, rfield;
    @@
    (
    -       del_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    +       timer_shutdown(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    |
    -       del_timer_sync(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    +       timer_shutdown_sync(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    )

<title>nilfs2: fix use-after-free bug of ns_writer on remount</title>

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-&gt;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  &lt;-- use-after-free

While Task1 is sleeping, nilfs-&gt;ns_writer is freed by Task2.  After Task1
waked up, Task1 accesses nilfs-&gt;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-&gt;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.

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:

<title>nilfs2: replace WARN_ONs by nilfs_error for checkpoint acquisition failure</title>

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.

Patch series "nilfs2 lockdep warning fixes".

The first two are to resolve the lockdep warning issue, and the last one
is the accompanying cleanup and low priority.

Based on your comment, this series solves the issue by separating inode
object as needed.  Since I was worried about the impact of the object
composition changes, I tested the series carefully not to cause
regressions especially for delicate functions such like disk space
reclamation and snapshots.

This patch (of 3):

If CONFIG_LOCKDEP is enabled, nilfs2 hits lockdep warnings at
inode_to_wb() during page/folio operations for btree nodes:

    ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:295

This is because nilfs2 uses two page caches for each inode and
inode-&gt;i_mapping never points to one of them, the btree node cache.

This causes inode_to_wb(inode) to refer to a different page cache than
the caller page/folio operations such like __folio_start_writeback(),
__folio_end_writeback(), or __folio_mark_dirty() acquired the lock.

This patch resolves the issue by allocating and using an additional
inode to hold the page cache of btree nodes.  The inode is attached
one-to-one to the traditional nilfs2 inode if it requires a block
mapping with b-tree.  This setup change is in memory only and does not
affect the disk format.
