commit 5012284700775a4e6e3fbe7eac4c543c4874b559 upstream.

Commit 8844618d8aa7: "ext4: only look at the bg_flags field if it is
valid" will complain if block group zero does not have the
EXT4_BG_INODE_ZEROED flag set.  Unfortunately, this is not correct,
since a freshly created file system has this flag cleared.  It gets
almost immediately after the file system is mounted read-write --- but
the following somewhat unlikely sequence will end up triggering a
false positive report of a corrupted file system:

   mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdc
   mount -o ro /dev/vdc /vdc
   mount -o remount,rw /dev/vdc

Instead, when initializing the inode table for block group zero, test
to make sure that itable_unused count is not too large, since that is
the case that will result in some or all of the reserved inodes
getting cleared.

This fixes the failures reported by Eric Whiteney when running
generic/230 and generic/231 in the the nojournal test case.

commit 44de022c4382541cebdd6de4465d1f4f465ff1dd upstream.

Ext4_check_descriptors() was getting called before s_gdb_count was
initialized.  So for file systems w/o the meta_bg feature, allocation
bitmaps could overlap the block group descriptors and ext4 wouldn't
notice.

For file systems with the meta_bg feature enabled, there was a
fencepost error which would cause the ext4_check_descriptors() to
incorrectly believe that the block allocation bitmap overlaps with the
block group descriptor blocks, and it would reject the mount.

Fix both of these problems.

commit 80660f20252d6f76c9f203874ad7c7a4a8508cf8 upstream.

The function return values are confusing with the way the function is
named. We expect a true or false return value but it actually returns
0/-errno.  This makes the code very confusing. Changing the return values
to return a bool where if DAX is supported then return true and no DAX
support returns false.

commit ba23cba9b3bdc967aabdc6ff1e3e9b11ce05bb4f upstream.

Change bdev_dax_supported so it takes a bdev parameter.  This enables
multi-device filesystems like xfs to check that a dax device can work for
the particular filesystem.  Once that's in place, actually fix all the
parts of XFS where we need to be able to distinguish between datadev and
rtdev.

This patch fixes the problem where we screw up the dax support checking
in xfs if the datadev and rtdev have different dax capabilities.

commit a17712c8e4be4fa5404d20e9cd3b2b21eae7bc56 upstream.

This patch attempts to close a hole leading to a BUG seen with hot
removals during writes [1].

A block device (NVME namespace in this test case) is formatted to EXT4
without partitions. It's mounted and write I/O is run to a file, then
the device is hot removed from the slot. The superblock attempts to be
written to the drive which is no longer present.

The typical chain of events leading to the BUG:
ext4_commit_super()
  __sync_dirty_buffer()
    submit_bh()
      submit_bh_wbc()
        BUG_ON(!buffer_mapped(bh));

This fix checks for the superblock's buffer head being mapped prior to
syncing.

<title>ext4: add more mount time checks of the superblock</title>

<content type='text'>
commit bfe0a5f47ada40d7984de67e59a7d3390b9b9ecc upstream.

The kernel's ext4 mount-time checks were more permissive than
e2fsprogs's libext2fs checks when opening a file system.  The
superblock is considered too insane for debugfs or e2fsck to operate
on it, the kernel has no business trying to mount it.

This will make file system fuzzing tools work harder, but the failure
cases that they find will be more useful and be easier to evaluate.

commit c37e9e013469521d9adb932d17a1795c139b36db upstream.

If there is a directory entry pointing to a system inode (such as a
journal inode), complain and declare the file system to be corrupted.

Also, if the superblock's first inode number field is too small,
refuse to mount the file system.

This addresses CVE-2018-10882.

<id>urn:sha1:b94094f668a9bf7837c275cd6e49bf29def3c77f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 8844618d8aa7a9973e7b527d038a2a589665002c upstream.

The bg_flags field in the block group descripts is only valid if the
uninit_bg or metadata_csum feature is enabled.  We were not
consistently looking at this field; fix this.

Also block group #0 must never have uninitialized allocation bitmaps,
or need to be zeroed, since that's where the root inode, and other
special inodes are set up.  Check for these conditions and mark the
file system as corrupted if they are detected.

This addresses CVE-2018-10876.

commit 77260807d1170a8cf35dbb06e07461a655f67eee upstream.

It's really bad when the allocation bitmaps and the inode table
overlap with the block group descriptors, since it causes random
corruption of the bg descriptors.  So we really want to head those off
at the pass.
