ocfs2: goto out_unlock if ocfs2_get_clusters_nocache() failed in ocfs2_fiemap()

2013-05-30T13:35:08+00:00

commit b4ca2b4b577c3530e34dcfaafccb2cc680ce95d1 upstream.

Last time we found there is lock/unlock bug in ocfs2_file_aio_write, and
then we did a thorough search for all lock resources in
ocfs2_inode_info, including rw, inode and open lockres and found this
bug.  My kernel version is 3.0.13, and it is also in the lastest version
3.9.  In ocfs2_fiemap, once ocfs2_get_clusters_nocache failed, it should
goto out_unlock instead of out, because we need release buffer head, up
read alloc sem and unlock inode.

nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty() for page at EOF boundary

2013-05-30T13:35:07+00:00

commit 136e8770cd5d1fe38b3c613100dd6dc4db6d4fa6 upstream.

nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty for page at EOF boundary

DESCRIPTION:
 There are use-cases when NILFS2 file system (formatted with block size
lesser than 4 KB) can be remounted in RO mode because of encountering of
"broken bmap" issue.

The issue was reported by Anthony Doggett :
 "The machine I've been trialling nilfs on is running Debian Testing,
  Linux version 3.2.0-4-686-pae (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc
  version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14) ) #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2), but I've
  also reproduced it (identically) with Debian Unstable amd64 and Debian
  Experimental (using the 3.8-trunk kernel).  The problematic partitions
  were formatted with "mkfs.nilfs2 -b 1024 -B 8192"."

SYMPTOMS:
(1) System log contains error messages likewise:

    [63102.496756] nilfs_direct_assign: invalid pointer: 0
    [63102.496786] NILFS error (device dm-17): nilfs_bmap_assign: broken bmap (inode number=28)
    [63102.496798]
    [63102.524403] Remounting filesystem read-only

(2) The NILFS2 file system is remounted in RO mode.

REPRODUSING PATH:
(1) Create volume group with name "unencrypted" by means of vgcreate utility.
(2) Run script (prepared by Anthony Doggett ):

----------------[BEGIN SCRIPT]--------------------

VG=unencrypted
lvcreate --size 2G --name ntest $VG
mkfs.nilfs2 -b 1024 -B 8192 /dev/mapper/$VG-ntest
mkdir /var/tmp/n
mkdir /var/tmp/n/ntest
mount /dev/mapper/$VG-ntest /var/tmp/n/ntest
mkdir /var/tmp/n/ntest/thedir
cd /var/tmp/n/ntest/thedir
sleep 2
date
darcs init
sleep 2
dmesg|tail -n 5
date
darcs whatsnew || true
date
sleep 2
dmesg|tail -n 5
----------------[END SCRIPT]--------------------

REPRODUCIBILITY: 100%

INVESTIGATION:
As it was discovered, the issue takes place during segment
construction after executing such sequence of user-space operations:

  open("_darcs/index", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY, 0666) = 7
  fstat(7, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
  ftruncate(7, 60)

The error message "NILFS error (device dm-17): nilfs_bmap_assign: broken
bmap (inode number=28)" takes place because of trying to get block
number for third block of the file with logical offset #3072 bytes.  As
it is possible to see from above output, the file has 60 bytes of the
whole size.  So, it is enough one block (1 KB in size) allocation for
the whole file.  Trying to operate with several blocks instead of one
takes place because of discovering several dirty buffers for this file
in nilfs_segctor_scan_file() method.

The root cause of this issue is in nilfs_set_page_dirty function which
is called just before writing to an mmapped page.

When nilfs_page_mkwrite function handles a page at EOF boundary, it
fills hole blocks only inside EOF through __block_page_mkwrite().

The __block_page_mkwrite() function calls set_page_dirty() after filling
hole blocks, thus nilfs_set_page_dirty function (=
a_ops->set_page_dirty) is called.  However, the current implementation
of nilfs_set_page_dirty() wrongly marks all buffers dirty even for page
at EOF boundary.

As a result, buffers outside EOF are inconsistently marked dirty and
queued for write even though they are not mapped with nilfs_get_block
function.

FIX:
This modifies nilfs_set_page_dirty() not to mark hole blocks dirty.

Thanks to Vyacheslav Dubeyko for his effort on analysis and proposals
for this issue.

commit 03b71c6ca6286625d8f1ed44aabab9b5bf5dac10 upstream.

The search ioctl skips items that are too large for a result buffer, but
inline items of a certain size occuring before any search result is
found would trigger an overflow and stop the search entirely.

cifs: only set ops for inodes in I_NEW state

2013-05-30T13:34:55+00:00

commit c2b93e0699723700f886ce17bb65ffd771195a6d upstream.

It's generally not safe to reset the inode ops once they've been set. In
the case where the inode was originally thought to be a directory and
then later found to be a DFS referral, this can lead to an oops when we
try to trigger an inode op on it after changing the ops to the blank
referral operations.

autofs - remove autofs dentry mount check

2013-05-30T13:34:52+00:00

commit ce8a5dbdf9e709bdaf4618d7ef8cceb91e8adc69 upstream.

When checking if an autofs mount point is busy it isn't sufficient to
only check if it's a mount point.

For example, if the mount of an offset mountpoint in a tree is denied
for this host by its export and the dentry becomes a process working
directory the check incorrectly returns the mount as not in use at
expire.

This can happen since the default when mounting within a tree is
nostrict, which means ingnore mount fails on mounts within the tree and
continue.  The nostrict option is meant to allow mounting in this case.

ext4: limit group search loop for non-extent files

2013-05-30T13:34:51+00:00

commit e6155736ad76b2070652745f9e54cdea3f0d8567 upstream.

In the case where we are allocating for a non-extent file,
we must limit the groups we allocate from to those below
2^32 blocks, and ext4_mb_regular_allocator() attempts to
do this initially by putting a cap on ngroups for the
subsequent search loop.

However, the initial target group comes in from the
allocation context (ac), and it may already be beyond
the artificially limited ngroups.  In this case,
the limit

	if (group == ngroups)
		group = 0;

at the top of the loop is never true, and the loop will
run away.

Catch this case inside the loop and reset the search to
start at group 0.

nfsd4: don't allow owner override on 4.1 CLAIM_FH opens

2013-05-30T13:34:51+00:00

commit 9f415eb25574db4b73a9a712a4438e41dc284922 upstream.

The Linux client is using CLAIM_FH to implement regular opens, not just
recovery cases, so it depends on the server to check permissions
correctly.

Therefore the owner override, which may make sense in the delegation
recovery case, isn't right in the CLAIM_FH case.

Symptoms: on a client with 49f9a0fafd844c32f2abada047c0b9a5ba0d6255
"NFSv4.1: Enable open-by-filehandle", Bryan noticed this:

fs/dcache.c: add cond_resched() to shrink_dcache_parent()

2013-05-13T14:02:30+00:00

commit 421348f1ca0bf17769dee0aed4d991845ae0536d upstream.

Call cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent() to maintain interactivity.

Before this patch:

	void shrink_dcache_parent(struct dentry * parent)
	{
		while ((found = select_parent(parent, &dispose)) != 0)
			shrink_dentry_list(&dispose);
	}

select_parent() populates the dispose list with dentries which
shrink_dentry_list() then deletes.  select_parent() carefully uses
need_resched() to avoid doing too much work at once.  But neither
shrink_dcache_parent() nor its called functions call cond_resched().  So
once need_resched() is set select_parent() will return single dentry
dispose list which is then deleted by shrink_dentry_list().  This is
inefficient when there are a lot of dentry to process.  This can cause
softlockup and hurts interactivity on non preemptable kernels.

This change adds cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent().  The benefit
of this is that need_resched() is quickly cleared so that future calls
to select_parent() are able to efficiently return a big batch of dentry.

These additional cond_resched() do not seem to impact performance, at
least for the workload below.

Here is a program which can cause soft lockup if other system activity
sets need_resched().

	int main()
	{
	        struct rlimit rlim;
	        int i;
	        int f[100000];
	        char buf[20];
	        struct timeval t1, t2;
	        double diff;

	        /* cleanup past run */
	        system("rm -rf x");

	        /* boost nfile rlimit */
	        rlim.rlim_cur = 200000;
	        rlim.rlim_max = 200000;
	        if (setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, &rlim))
	                err(1, "setrlimit");

	        /* make directory for files */
	        if (mkdir("x", 0700))
	                err(1, "mkdir");

	        if (gettimeofday(&t1, NULL))
	                err(1, "gettimeofday");

	        /* populate directory with open files */
	        for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
	                snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "x/%d", i);
	                f[i] = open(buf, O_CREAT);
	                if (f[i] == -1)
	                        err(1, "open");
	        }

	        /* close some of the files */
	        for (i = 0; i < 85000; i++)
	                close(f[i]);

	        /* unlink all files, even open ones */
	        system("rm -rf x");

	        if (gettimeofday(&t2, NULL))
	                err(1, "gettimeofday");

	        diff = (((double)t2.tv_sec * 1000000 + t2.tv_usec) -
	                ((double)t1.tv_sec * 1000000 + t1.tv_usec));

	        printf("done: %g elapsed\n", diff/1e6);

inotify: invalid mask should return a error number but not set it

2013-05-13T14:02:29+00:00

commit 04df32fa10ab9a6f0643db2949d42efc966bc844 upstream.

When we run the crackerjack testsuite, the inotify_add_watch test is
stalled.

This is caused by the invalid mask 0 - the task is waiting for the event
but it never comes.  inotify_add_watch() should return -EINVAL as it did
before commit 676a0675cf92 ("inotify: remove broken mask checks causing
unmount to be EINVAL").  That commit removes the invalid mask check, but
that check is needed.

Check the mask's ALL_INOTIFY_BITS before the inotify_arg_to_mask() call.
If none are set, just return -EINVAL.

Because IN_UNMOUNT is in ALL_INOTIFY_BITS, this change will not trigger
the problem that above commit fixed.
