ext4: fix reference counting bug on block allocation error

2016-08-16T07:29:04+00:00

commit 554a5ccc4e4a20c5f3ec859de0842db4b4b9c77e upstream. If we hit this error when mounted with errors=continue or errors=remount-ro: EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used:2940: comm ext4.exe: Allocating blocks 5090-6081 which overlap fs metadata then ext4_mb_new_blocks() will call ext4_mb_release_context() and try to continue. However, ext4_mb_release_context() is the wrong thing to call here since we are still actually using the allocation context. Instead, just error out. We could retry the allocation, but there is a possibility of getting stuck in an infinite loop instead, so this seems safer.

tcp: make challenge acks less predictable

2016-08-16T07:29:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit 75ff39ccc1bd5d3c455b6822ab09e533c551f758 ] Yue Cao claims that current host rate limiting of challenge ACKS (RFC 5961) could leak enough information to allow a patient attacker to hijack TCP sessions. He will soon provide details in an academic paper. This patch increases the default limit from 100 to 1000, and adds some randomization so that the attacker can no longer hijack sessions without spending a considerable amount of probes. Based on initial analysis and patch from Linus. Note that we also have per socket rate limiting, so it is tempting to remove the host limit in the future. v2: randomize the count of challenge acks per second, not the period.

tcp: consider recv buf for the initial window scale

2016-08-16T07:29:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit f626300a3e776ccc9671b0dd94698fb3aa315966 ] tcp_select_initial_window() intends to advertise a window scaling for the maximum possible window size. To do so, it considers the maximum of net.ipv4.tcp_rmem[2] and net.core.rmem_max as the only possible upper-bounds. However, users with CAP_NET_ADMIN can use SO_RCVBUFFORCE to set the socket's receive buffer size to values larger than net.ipv4.tcp_rmem[2] and net.core.rmem_max. Thus, SO_RCVBUFFORCE is effectively ignored by tcp_select_initial_window(). To fix this, consider the maximum of net.ipv4.tcp_rmem[2], net.core.rmem_max and socket's initial buffer space.

ext4: don't call ext4_should_journal_data() on the journal inode

2016-08-16T07:29:03+00:00

commit 6a7fd522a7c94cdef0a3b08acf8e6702056e635c upstream. If ext4_fill_super() fails early, it's possible for ext4_evict_inode() to call ext4_should_journal_data() before superblock options and flags are fully set up. In that case, the iput() on the journal inode can end up causing a BUG(). Work around this problem by reordering the tests so we only call ext4_should_journal_data() after we know it's not the journal inode.

ext4: fix deadlock during page writeback

2016-08-16T07:29:03+00:00

commit 646caa9c8e196880b41cd3e3d33a2ebc752bdb85 upstream. Commit 06bd3c36a733 (ext4: fix data exposure after a crash) uncovered a deadlock in ext4_writepages() which was previously much harder to hit. After this commit xfstest generic/130 reproduces the deadlock on small filesystems. The problem happens when ext4_do_update_inode() sets LARGE_FILE feature and marks current inode handle as synchronous. That subsequently results in ext4_journal_stop() called from ext4_writepages() to block waiting for transaction commit while still holding page locks, reference to io_end, and some prepared bio in mpd structure each of which can possibly block transaction commit from completing and thus results in deadlock. Fix the problem by releasing page locks, io_end reference, and submitting prepared bio before calling ext4_journal_stop(). [ Changed to defer the call to ext4_journal_stop() only if the handle is synchronous. --tytso ] Reported-and-tested-by: Eryu Guan Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ext4: check for extents that wrap around

2016-08-16T07:29:03+00:00

commit f70749ca42943faa4d4dcce46dfdcaadb1d0c4b6 upstream. An extent with lblock = 4294967295 and len = 1 will pass the ext4_valid_extent() test: ext4_lblk_t last = lblock + len - 1; if (len == 0 || lblock > last) return 0; since last = 4294967295 + 1 - 1 = 4294967295. This would later trigger the BUG_ON(es->es_lblk + es->es_len < es->es_lblk) in ext4_es_end(). We can simplify it by removing the - 1 altogether and changing the test to use lblock + len <= lblock, since now if len = 0, then lblock + 0 == lblock and it fails, and if len > 0 then lblock + len > lblock in order to pass (i.e. it doesn't overflow).
