commit 953aa9d136f53e226448dbd801a905c28f8071bf upstream.

Don't allow passing arbitrary flags as they change behavior including
memory allocation that the call stack is not prepared for.

<title>ubifs: Fix ino_t format warnings in orphan_delete()</title>

commit 155fc6ba488a8bdfd1d3be3d7ba98c9cec2b2429 upstream.

On alpha and s390x:

    fs/ubifs/debug.h:158:11: warning: format ‘%lu’ expects argument of type ‘long unsigned int’, but argument 4 has type ‘ino_t {aka unsigned int}’ [-Wformat=]
    ...
    fs/ubifs/orphan.c:132:3: note: in expansion of macro ‘dbg_gen’
       dbg_gen("deleted twice ino %lu", orph-&gt;inum);
    ...
    fs/ubifs/orphan.c:140:3: note: in expansion of macro ‘dbg_gen’
       dbg_gen("delete later ino %lu", orph-&gt;inum);

__kernel_ino_t is "unsigned long" on most architectures, but not on
alpha and s390x, where it is "unsigned int".  Hence when printing an
ino_t, it should always be cast to "unsigned long" first.

Fix this by re-adding the recently removed casts.

<title>f2fs: fix to add swap extent correctly</title>

commit 3e5e479a39ce9ed60cd63f7565cc1d9da77c2a4e upstream.

As Youling reported in mailing list:

https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/the-file-system-f2fs-is-broken-4175666043/

https://www.linux.org/threads/the-file-system-f2fs-is-broken.26490/

There is a test case can corrupt f2fs image:
- dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=4096
- chmod 600 /swapfile
- mkswap /swapfile
- swapon --discard /swapfile

The root cause is f2fs_swap_activate() intends to return zero value
to setup_swap_extents() to enable SWP_FS mode (swap file goes through
fs), in this flow, setup_swap_extents() setups swap extent with wrong
block address range, result in discard_swap() erasing incorrect address.

Because f2fs_swap_activate() has pinned swapfile, its data block
address will not change, it's safe to let swap to handle IO through
raw device, so we can get rid of SWAP_FS mode and initial swap extents
inside f2fs_swap_activate(), by this way, later discard_swap() can trim
in right address range.

commit 2b98149c2377bff12be5dd3ce02ae0506e2dd613 upstream.

It's over-zealous to return hard errors under RCU-walk here, given that
a REF-walk will be triggered for all other cases handling ".." under
RCU.

The original purpose of this check was to ensure that if a rename occurs
such that a directory is moved outside of the bind-mount which the
resolution started in, it would be detected and blocked to avoid being
able to mess with paths outside of the bind-mount. However, triggering a
new REF-walk is just as effective a solution.

commit d876836204897b6d7d911f942084f69a1e9d5c4d upstream.

We must set MSG_CMSG_COMPAT if we're in compatability mode, otherwise
the iovec import for these commands will not do the right thing and fail
the command with -EINVAL.

Found by running the test suite compiled as 32-bit.

<title>ext4: potential crash on allocation error in ext4_alloc_flex_bg_array()</title>

commit 37b0b6b8b99c0e1c1f11abbe7cf49b6d03795b3f upstream.

If sbi-&gt;s_flex_groups_allocated is zero and the first allocation fails
then this code will crash.  The problem is that "i--" will set "i" to
-1 but when we compare "i &gt;= sbi-&gt;s_flex_groups_allocated" then the -1
is type promoted to unsigned and becomes UINT_MAX.  Since UINT_MAX
is more than zero, the condition is true so we call kvfree(new_groups[-1]).
The loop will carry on freeing invalid memory until it crashes.

which is due to the 'wqe' and 'worker' allocation being node affine.
But it isn't valid to call the node affine allocation if the node isn't
online.

Setup structures for even offline nodes, as usual, but skip them in
terms of thread setup to not waste resources. If the node isn't online,
just alloc memory with NUMA_NO_NODE.

which is due to the 'wqe' and 'worker' allocation being node affine.
But it isn't valid to call the node affine allocation if the node isn't
online.

Setup structures for even offline nodes, as usual, but skip them in
terms of thread setup to not waste resources. If the node isn't online,
just alloc memory with NUMA_NO_NODE.

[ Upstream commit 8e4473bb50a1796c9c32b244e5dbc5ee24ead937 ]

In O_APPEND &amp; O_DIRECT mode, the data from different writers will
be possibly overlapping each other since they take the shared lock.

For example, both Writer1 and Writer2 are in O_APPEND and O_DIRECT
mode:

          Writer1                         Writer2

     shared_lock()                   shared_lock()
     getattr(CAP_SIZE)               getattr(CAP_SIZE)
     iocb-&gt;ki_pos = EOF              iocb-&gt;ki_pos = EOF
     write(data1)
                                     write(data2)
     shared_unlock()                 shared_unlock()

The data2 will overlap the data1 from the same file offset, the
old EOF.

Switch to exclusive lock instead when O_APPEND is specified.

[ Upstream commit cf5b4059ba7197d6cef9c0e024979d178ed8c8ec ]

We want to make sure that we revalidate the dentry if and only if
we've done an OPEN by filename.
In order to avoid races with remote changes to the directory on the
server, we want to save the verifier before calling OPEN. The exception
is if the server returned a delegation with our OPEN, as we then
know that the filename can't have changed on the server.
