ext4: do not set posix acls on xattr inodes

2017-06-22T01:21:39+00:00

We don't need acls on xattr inodes because they are not directly
accessible from user mode.

Besides lockdep complains about recursive locking of xattr_sem as seen
below.

ext4: clean up feature test macros with predicate functions

2015-10-17T20:18:43+00:00

Create separate predicate functions to test/set/clear feature flags,
thereby replacing the wordy old macros.  Furthermore, clean out the
places where we open-coded feature tests.

ext4: correctly migrate a file with a hole at the beginning

2015-07-04T04:03:44+00:00

Currently ext4_ind_migrate() doesn't correctly handle a file which
contains a hole at the beginning of the file.  This caused the migration
to be done incorrectly, and then if there is a subsequent following
delayed allocation write to the "hole", this would reclaim the same data
blocks again and results in fs corruption.

  # assmuing 4k block size ext4, with delalloc enabled
  # skip the first block and write to the second block
  xfs_io -fc "pwrite 4k 4k" -c "fsync" /mnt/ext4/testfile

  # converting to indirect-mapped file, which would move the data blocks
  # to the beginning of the file, but extent status cache still marks
  # that region as a hole
  chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile

  # delayed allocation writes to the "hole", reclaim the same data block
  # again, results in i_blocks corruption
  xfs_io -c "pwrite 0 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile
  umount /mnt/ext4
  e2fsck -nf /dev/sda6
  ...
  Inode 53, i_blocks is 16, should be 8.  Fix? no

ext4: be more strict when migrating to non-extent based file

2015-07-04T03:56:50+00:00

Currently the check in ext4_ind_migrate() is not enough before doing the
real conversion:

a) delayed allocated extents could bypass the check on eh->eh_entries
   and eh->eh_depth

This can be demonstrated by this script

  xfs_io -fc "pwrite 0 4k" -c "pwrite 8k 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile
  chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile

where testfile has two extents but still be converted to non-extent
based file format.

b) only extent length is checked but not the offset, which would result
   in data lose (delalloc) or fs corruption (nodelalloc), because
   non-extent based file only supports at most (12 + 2^10 + 2^20 + 2^30)
   blocks

This can be demostrated by

  xfs_io -fc "pwrite 5T 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile
  chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile
  sync

If delalloc is enabled, dmesg prints
  EXT4-fs warning (device dm-4): ext4_block_to_path:105: block 1342177280 > max in inode 53
  EXT4-fs (dm-4): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 53 at logical offset 1342177280 with max blocks 1 with error 5
  EXT4-fs (dm-4): This should not happen!! Data will be lost

If delalloc is disabled, e2fsck -nf shows corruption
  Inode 53, i_size is 5497558142976, should be 4096.  Fix? no

Fix the two issues by

a) forcing all delayed allocation blocks to be allocated before checking
   eh->eh_depth and eh->eh_entries
b) limiting the last logical block of the extent is within direct map

ext4: allow a NULL argument to ext4_ext_drop_refs()

2014-09-01T18:39:09+00:00

Teach ext4_ext_drop_refs() to accept a NULL argument, much like
kfree().  This allows us to drop a lot of checks to make sure path is
non-NULL before calling ext4_ext_drop_refs().

ext4: drop EXT4_EX_NOFREE_ON_ERR from rest of extents handling code

2014-09-01T18:37:09+00:00

Drop EXT4_EX_NOFREE_ON_ERR from ext4_ext_create_new_leaf(),
ext4_split_extent(), ext4_convert_unwritten_extents_endio().

This requires fixing all of their callers to potentially
ext4_ext_find_extent() to free the struct ext4_ext_path object in case
of an error, and there are interlocking dependencies all the way up to
ext4_ext_map_blocks(), ext4_swap_extents(), and
ext4_ext_remove_space().

Once this is done, we can drop the EXT4_EX_NOFREE_ON_ERR flag since it
is no longer necessary.
