commit 2026559a6c4ce34db117d2db8f710fe2a9420d5a upstream.

When using the "block:block_dirty_buffer" tracepoint, mark_buffer_dirty()
may cause a NULL pointer dereference, or a general protection fault when
KASAN is enabled.

This happens because, since the tracepoint was added in
mark_buffer_dirty(), it references the dev_t member bh-&gt;b_bdev-&gt;bd_dev
regardless of whether the buffer head has a pointer to a block_device
structure.

In the current implementation, nilfs_grab_buffer(), which grabs a buffer
to read (or create) a block of metadata, including b-tree node blocks,
does not set the block device, but instead does so only if the buffer is
not in the "uptodate" state for each of its caller block reading
functions.  However, if the uptodate flag is set on a folio/page, and the
buffer heads are detached from it by try_to_free_buffers(), and new buffer
heads are then attached by create_empty_buffers(), the uptodate flag may
be restored to each buffer without the block device being set to
bh-&gt;b_bdev, and mark_buffer_dirty() may be called later in that state,
resulting in the bug mentioned above.

Fix this issue by making nilfs_grab_buffer() always set the block device
of the super block structure to the buffer head, regardless of the state
of the buffer's uptodate flag.

commit cd45e963e44b0f10d90b9e6c0e8b4f47f3c92471 upstream.

Patch series "nilfs2: fix null-ptr-deref bugs on block tracepoints".

This series fixes null pointer dereference bugs that occur when using
nilfs2 and two block-related tracepoints.


This patch (of 2):

It has been reported that when using "block:block_touch_buffer"
tracepoint, touch_buffer() called from __nilfs_get_folio_block() causes a
NULL pointer dereference, or a general protection fault when KASAN is
enabled.

This happens because since the tracepoint was added in touch_buffer(), it
references the dev_t member bh-&gt;b_bdev-&gt;bd_dev regardless of whether the
buffer head has a pointer to a block_device structure.  In the current
implementation, the block_device structure is set after the function
returns to the caller.

Here, touch_buffer() is used to mark the folio/page that owns the buffer
head as accessed, but the common search helper for folio/page used by the
caller function was optimized to mark the folio/page as accessed when it
was reimplemented a long time ago, eliminating the need to call
touch_buffer() here in the first place.

So this solves the issue by eliminating the touch_buffer() call itself.

<title>nilfs2: fix potential deadlock with newly created symlinks</title>

commit b3a033e3ecd3471248d474ef263aadc0059e516a upstream.

Syzbot reported that page_symlink(), called by nilfs_symlink(), triggers
memory reclamation involving the filesystem layer, which can result in
circular lock dependencies among the reader/writer semaphore
nilfs-&gt;ns_segctor_sem, s_writers percpu_rwsem (intwrite) and the
fs_reclaim pseudo lock.

This is because after commit 21fc61c73c39 ("don't put symlink bodies in
pagecache into highmem"), the gfp flags of the page cache for symbolic
links are overwritten to GFP_KERNEL via inode_nohighmem().

This is not a problem for symlinks read from the backing device, because
the __GFP_FS flag is dropped after inode_nohighmem() is called.  However,
when a new symlink is created with nilfs_symlink(), the gfp flags remain
overwritten to GFP_KERNEL.  Then, memory allocation called from
page_symlink() etc.  triggers memory reclamation including the FS layer,
which may call nilfs_evict_inode() or nilfs_dirty_inode().  And these can
cause a deadlock if they are called while nilfs-&gt;ns_segctor_sem is held:

Fix this issue by dropping the __GFP_FS flag from the page cache GFP flags
of newly created symlinks in the same way that nilfs_new_inode() and
__nilfs_read_inode() do, as a workaround until we adopt nofs allocation
scope consistently or improve the locking constraints.

commit 41e192ad2779cae0102879612dfe46726e4396aa upstream.

Syzbot reported that in directory operations after nilfs2 detects
filesystem corruption and degrades to read-only,
__block_write_begin_int(), which is called to prepare block writes, may
fail the BUG_ON check for accesses exceeding the folio/page size,
triggering a kernel bug.

This was found to be because the "checked" flag of a page/folio was not
cleared when it was discarded by nilfs2's own routine, which causes the
sanity check of directory entries to be skipped when the directory
page/folio is reloaded.  So, fix that.

This was necessary when the use of nilfs2's own page discard routine was
applied to more than just metadata files.

<title>nilfs2: propagate directory read errors from nilfs_find_entry()</title>

commit 08cfa12adf888db98879dbd735bc741360a34168 upstream.

Syzbot reported that a task hang occurs in vcs_open() during a fuzzing
test for nilfs2.

The root cause of this problem is that in nilfs_find_entry(), which
searches for directory entries, ignores errors when loading a directory
page/folio via nilfs_get_folio() fails.

If the filesystem images is corrupted, and the i_size of the directory
inode is large, and the directory page/folio is successfully read but
fails the sanity check, for example when it is zero-filled,
nilfs_check_folio() may continue to spit out error messages in bursts.

Fix this issue by propagating the error to the callers when loading a
page/folio fails in nilfs_find_entry().

The current interface of nilfs_find_entry() and its callers is outdated
and cannot propagate error codes such as -EIO and -ENOMEM returned via
nilfs_find_entry(), so fix it together.

commit 08cfa12adf888db98879dbd735bc741360a34168 upstream.

Syzbot reported that a task hang occurs in vcs_open() during a fuzzing
test for nilfs2.

The root cause of this problem is that in nilfs_find_entry(), which
searches for directory entries, ignores errors when loading a directory
page/folio via nilfs_get_folio() fails.

If the filesystem images is corrupted, and the i_size of the directory
inode is large, and the directory page/folio is successfully read but
fails the sanity check, for example when it is zero-filled,
nilfs_check_folio() may continue to spit out error messages in bursts.

Fix this issue by propagating the error to the callers when loading a
page/folio fails in nilfs_find_entry().

The current interface of nilfs_find_entry() and its callers is outdated
and cannot propagate error codes such as -EIO and -ENOMEM returned via
nilfs_find_entry(), so fix it together.

[ Upstream commit f9c96351aa6718b42a9f42eaf7adce0356bdb5e8 ]

The function nilfs_btree_check_delete(), which checks whether degeneration
to direct mapping occurs before deleting a b-tree entry, causes memory
access outside the block buffer when retrieving the maximum key if the
root node has no entries.

This does not usually happen because b-tree mappings with 0 child nodes
are never created by mkfs.nilfs2 or nilfs2 itself.  However, it can happen
if the b-tree root node read from a device is configured that way, so fix
this potential issue by adding a check for that case.

[ Upstream commit 111b812d3662f3a1b831d19208f83aa711583fe6 ]

Due to the nature of b-trees, nilfs2 itself and admin tools such as
mkfs.nilfs2 will never create an intermediate b-tree node block with 0
child nodes, nor will they delete (key, pointer)-entries that would result
in such a state.  However, it is possible that a b-tree node block is
corrupted on the backing device and is read with 0 child nodes.

Because operation is not guaranteed if the number of child nodes is 0 for
intermediate node blocks other than the root node, modify
nilfs_btree_node_broken(), which performs sanity checks when reading a
b-tree node block, so that such cases will be judged as metadata
corruption.

[ Upstream commit 9403001ad65ae4f4c5de368bdda3a0636b51d51a ]

Patch series "nilfs2: fix potential issues with empty b-tree nodes".

This series addresses three potential issues with empty b-tree nodes that
can occur with corrupted filesystem images, including one recently
discovered by syzbot.

This patch (of 3):

If a b-tree is broken on the device, and the b-tree height is greater than
2 (the level of the root node is greater than 1) even if the number of
child nodes of the b-tree root is 0, a NULL pointer dereference occurs in
nilfs_btree_prepare_insert(), which is called from nilfs_btree_insert().

This is because, when the number of child nodes of the b-tree root is 0,
nilfs_btree_do_lookup() does not set the block buffer head in any of
path[x].bp_bh, leaving it as the initial value of NULL, but if the level
of the b-tree root node is greater than 1, nilfs_btree_get_nonroot_node(),
which accesses the buffer memory of path[x].bp_bh, is called.

Fix this issue by adding a check to nilfs_btree_root_broken(), which
performs sanity checks when reading the root node from the device, to
detect this inconsistency.

Thanks to Lizhi Xu for trying to solve the bug and clarifying the cause
early on.

<title>nilfs2: fix state management in error path of log writing function</title>

<id>6576dd6695f2afca3f4954029ac4a64f82ba60ab</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit a694291a6211 ("nilfs2: separate wait function from
nilfs_segctor_write") was applied, the log writing function
nilfs_segctor_do_construct() was able to issue I/O requests continuously
even if user data blocks were split into multiple logs across segments,
but two potential flaws were introduced in its error handling.

First, if nilfs_segctor_begin_construction() fails while creating the
second or subsequent logs, the log writing function returns without
calling nilfs_segctor_abort_construction(), so the writeback flag set on
pages/folios will remain uncleared.  This causes page cache operations to
hang waiting for the writeback flag.  For example,
truncate_inode_pages_final(), which is called via nilfs_evict_inode() when
an inode is evicted from memory, will hang.

Second, the NILFS_I_COLLECTED flag set on normal inodes remain uncleared. 
As a result, if the next log write involves checkpoint creation, that's
fine, but if a partial log write is performed that does not, inodes with
NILFS_I_COLLECTED set are erroneously removed from the "sc_dirty_files"
list, and their data and b-tree blocks may not be written to the device,
corrupting the block mapping.

Fix these issues by uniformly calling nilfs_segctor_abort_construction()
on failure of each step in the loop in nilfs_segctor_do_construct(),
having it clean up logs and segment usages according to progress, and
correcting the conditions for calling nilfs_redirty_inodes() to ensure
that the NILFS_I_COLLECTED flag is cleared.
