fs: fix lazytime expiration handling in __writeback_single_inode()

2021-01-30T12:31:17+00:00

commit 1e249cb5b7fc09ff216aa5a12f6c302e434e88f9 upstream. When lazytime is enabled and an inode is being written due to its in-memory updated timestamps having expired, either due to a sync() or syncfs() system call or due to dirtytime_expire_interval having elapsed, the VFS needs to inform the filesystem so that the filesystem can copy the inode's timestamps out to the on-disk data structures. This is done by __writeback_single_inode() calling mark_inode_dirty_sync(), which then calls ->dirty_inode(I_DIRTY_SYNC). However, this occurs after __writeback_single_inode() has already cleared the dirty flags from ->i_state. This causes two bugs: - mark_inode_dirty_sync() redirties the inode, causing it to remain dirty. This wastefully causes the inode to be written twice. But more importantly, it breaks cases where sync_filesystem() is expected to clean dirty inodes. This includes the FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY ioctl (as reported at https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200306004555.GB225345@gmail.com), as well as possibly filesystem freezing (freeze_super()). - Since ->i_state doesn't contain I_DIRTY_TIME when ->dirty_inode() is called from __writeback_single_inode() for lazytime expiration, xfs_fs_dirty_inode() ignores the notification. (XFS only cares about lazytime expirations, and it assumes that i_state will contain I_DIRTY_TIME during those.) Therefore, lazy timestamps aren't persisted by sync(), syncfs(), or dirtytime_expire_interval on XFS. Fix this by moving the call to mark_inode_dirty_sync() to earlier in __writeback_single_inode(), before the dirty flags are cleared from i_state. This makes filesystems be properly notified of the timestamp expiration, and it avoids incorrectly redirtying the inode. This fixes xfstest generic/580 (which tests FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY) when run on ext4 or f2fs with lazytime enabled. It also fixes the new lazytime xfstest I've proposed, which reproduces the above-mentioned XFS bug (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210105005818.92978-1-ebiggers@kernel.org). Alternatively, we could call ->dirty_inode(I_DIRTY_SYNC) directly. But due to the introduction of I_SYNC_QUEUED, mark_inode_dirty_sync() is the right thing to do because mark_inode_dirty_sync() now knows not to move the inode to a writeback list if it is currently queued for sync.

writeback: Drop I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE

2021-01-30T12:31:17+00:00

commit 5fcd57505c002efc5823a7355e21f48dd02d5a51 upstream. The only use of I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE is to detect in __writeback_single_inode() that inode got there because flush worker decided it's time to writeback the dirty inode time stamps (either because we are syncing or because of age). However we can detect this directly in __writeback_single_inode() and there's no need for the strange propagation with I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE flag.

x86/boot/compressed: Disable relocation relaxation

2021-01-30T12:31:16+00:00

commit 09e43968db40c33a73e9ddbfd937f46d5c334924 upstream. The x86-64 psABI [0] specifies special relocation types (R_X86_64_[REX_]GOTPCRELX) for indirection through the Global Offset Table, semantically equivalent to R_X86_64_GOTPCREL, which the linker can take advantage of for optimization (relaxation) at link time. This is supported by LLD and binutils versions 2.26 onwards. The compressed kernel is position-independent code, however, when using LLD or binutils versions before 2.27, it must be linked without the -pie option. In this case, the linker may optimize certain instructions into a non-position-independent form, by converting foo@GOTPCREL(%rip) to $foo. This potential issue has been present with LLD and binutils-2.26 for a long time, but it has never manifested itself before now: - LLD and binutils-2.26 only relax movq foo@GOTPCREL(%rip), %reg to leaq foo(%rip), %reg which is still position-independent, rather than mov $foo, %reg which is permitted by the psABI when -pie is not enabled. - GCC happens to only generate GOTPCREL relocations on mov instructions. - CLang does generate GOTPCREL relocations on non-mov instructions, but when building the compressed kernel, it uses its integrated assembler (due to the redefinition of KBUILD_CFLAGS dropping -no-integrated-as), which has so far defaulted to not generating the GOTPCRELX relocations. Nick Desaulniers reports [1,2]: "A recent change [3] to a default value of configuration variable (ENABLE_X86_RELAX_RELOCATIONS OFF -> ON) in LLVM now causes Clang's integrated assembler to emit R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX/R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX relocations. LLD will relax instructions with these relocations based on whether the image is being linked as position independent or not. When not, then LLD will relax these instructions to use absolute addressing mode (R_RELAX_GOT_PC_NOPIC). This causes kernels built with Clang and linked with LLD to fail to boot." Patch series [4] is a solution to allow the compressed kernel to be linked with -pie unconditionally, but even if merged is unlikely to be backported. As a simple solution that can be applied to stable as well, prevent the assembler from generating the relaxed relocation types using the -mrelax-relocations=no option. For ease of backporting, do this unconditionally.

futex: Handle faults correctly for PI futexes

2021-01-30T12:31:16+00:00

commit 34b1a1ce1458f50ef27c54e28eb9b1947012907a upstream fixup_pi_state_owner() tries to ensure that the state of the rtmutex, pi_state and the user space value related to the PI futex are consistent before returning to user space. In case that the user space value update faults and the fault cannot be resolved by faulting the page in via fault_in_user_writeable() the function returns with -EFAULT and leaves the rtmutex and pi_state owner state inconsistent. A subsequent futex_unlock_pi() operates on the inconsistent pi_state and releases the rtmutex despite not owning it which can corrupt the RB tree of the rtmutex and cause a subsequent kernel stack use after free. It was suggested to loop forever in fixup_pi_state_owner() if the fault cannot be resolved, but that results in runaway tasks which is especially undesired when the problem happens due to a programming error and not due to malice. As the user space value cannot be fixed up, the proper solution is to make the rtmutex and the pi_state consistent so both have the same owner. This leaves the user space value out of sync. Any subsequent operation on the futex will fail because the 10th rule of PI futexes (pi_state owner and user space value are consistent) has been violated. As a consequence this removes the inept attempts of 'fixing' the situation in case that the current task owns the rtmutex when returning with an unresolvable fault by unlocking the rtmutex which left pi_state::owner and rtmutex::owner out of sync in a different and only slightly less dangerous way.
