[ Upstream commit d2a4e4e626b2f4670b69b430c357f03f53eb6632 ]

Local fuzzing of 6.12.94 has found the following memory leak:

[ Upstream commit 6a8269b6459ed870a8156c106a0f597383907872 ]

__add_reloc_root() allocates a mapping_node before inserting it into
rc-&gt;reloc_root_tree.  If rb_simple_insert() finds an existing entry, it
returns the existing rb_node and leaves the newly allocated node unlinked.

The error path then returns -EEXIST without freeing the new node.  Since
the node was never inserted into reloc_root_tree, the later cleanup in
put_reloc_control() cannot find it either.

Free the newly allocated node before returning -EEXIST.

The callers currently assert that -EEXIST should not happen, so this is a
defensive cleanup for an unexpected duplicate insert path.  If the path is
ever reached, the local allocation should still be released.

<title>btrfs: reject free space cache with more entries than pages</title>

[ Upstream commit a2d8d5647ed854e38f941741aea45b9eb15a6350 ]

When loading a v1 free space cache, __load_free_space_cache() takes
num_entries and num_bitmaps straight from the on-disk
btrfs_free_space_header. That header is stored in the tree_root under a key
with type 0, which the tree-checker has no case for, so neither count is
validated before the load trusts it.

The load loops num_entries times and maps the next page whenever the current
one runs out, going through io_ctl_check_crc() -&gt; io_ctl_map_page(), which
does io_ctl-&gt;pages[io_ctl-&gt;index++]. But pages[] is allocated in
io_ctl_init() from the cache inode's i_size, not from num_entries:

	num_pages = DIV_ROUND_UP(i_size_read(inode), PAGE_SIZE);
	io_ctl-&gt;pages = kcalloc(num_pages, sizeof(struct page *), GFP_NOFS);

So if num_entries claims more records than the pages can hold, io_ctl-&gt;index
runs off the end of pages[]. The write side never hits this because
io_ctl_add_entry() and io_ctl_add_bitmap() both stop once
io_ctl-&gt;index &gt;= io_ctl-&gt;num_pages; the read side just never had the same
check.

To trigger it, take a clean cache (num_entries = &lt;N&gt; here), set num_entries
in the header to 0x10000, and fix up the leaf checksum so it still passes
the tree-checker. The cache inode has i_size = 65536, so num_pages is 16 and
pages[] is a 16-pointer (kmalloc-128) array. The load now tries to read
65536 entries, io_ctl-&gt;index walks up to 16, and pages[16] is read past the
array:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in io_ctl_check_crc (fs/btrfs/free-space-cache.c:420 fs/btrfs/free-space-cache.c:565)
  Read of size 8 at addr ffff88800c833a80 by task kworker/u8:3/58

   btrfs_work_helper (fs/btrfs/async-thread.c:312)
   process_one_work
   worker_thread
   kthread
   ret_from_fork

free-space-cache.c:420 is io_ctl_map_page(), inlined into io_ctl_check_crc()
at line 565, which is why that is the frame KASAN names. The out-of-bounds
slot is then treated as a struct page and handed to crc32c(), so the bad
read turns into a GP fault.

Add the missing check to io_ctl_check_crc(), which is where both the entry
loop and the bitmap loop end up. When num_entries is too large the load now
fails like any corrupt cache: __load_free_space_cache() drops it and rebuilds
the free space from the extent tree, so a valid cache is never rejected.

[ Upstream commit ff66fe6662330226b3f486014c375538d91c44aa ]

[BUG]
With the previous bug of short direct writes fixed, test case
generic/362 (*) still fails with the following error with nodatasum
mount option:

# generic/362  0s ... - output mismatch (see /home/adam/xfstests/results//generic/362.out.bad)

#     QA output created by 362
#    +Wrong file size after first write, got 8192 expected 4096
#     Silence is golden
#    ...

*: If the test case has been executed before with default data checksum,
the failure will not reproduce. Need the following fix to make it
reliably reproducible:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20260528111659.87113-1-wqu@suse.com/

[CAUSE]
Inside btrfs_dio_iomap_begin() for a direct write, we increase the isize
if it's beyond the current isize.

But if the direct io finished short, we do not revert the isize to the
previous value nor to the short write end.

Then if we need to fall back to buffered writes, and the write has
IOCB_APPEND flag, then the buffered write will be positioned at the
incorrect isize.

The call chain looks like this:

 btrfs_direct_write(pos=0, length=4K)
 |- __iomap_dio_rw()
 |  |- iomap_iter()
 |  |  |- btrfs_dio_iomap_begin()
 |  |     |- btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write()
 |  |        |- i_size_write()
 |  |           Which updates the isize to the write end (4K).
 |  |
 |  |- iomap_dio_iter()
 |  |  Failed with -EFAULT on the first page.
 |  |
 |  |- iomap_iter()
 |  |  |- btrfs_dio_iomap_end()
 |  |     Detects a short write, return -ENOTBLK
 |  |- if (ret == -ENOTBLK) { ret = 0;}
 |     Which resets the return value.
 |
 |- ret = iomap_dio_complet()
 |  Which returns 0.
 |
 |- btrfs_buffered_write(iocb, from);
    |- generic_write_checks()
       |- iocb-&gt;ki_pos = i_size_read()
          Which is still the new size (4K), other than the original
	  isize 0.

[FIX]
Introduce the following btrfs_dio_data members:

- old_isize

- updated_isize
  If the direct write has enlarged the isize.

Then if we got a short write, and btrfs_dio_data::updated_isize is set,
revert to the correct isize based on old_isize and current file
position.

And here we call i_size_write() without holding an extent lock, which is
a very special case that we're safe to do:

 - Only a single writer can be enlarging isize
   Enlarging isize will take the exclusive inode lock.

 - Buffered readers need to wait for the OE we're holding
   Buffered readers will lock extent and wait for OE of the folio range.
   Sometimes we can skip the OE wait, but since all page cache is
   invalidated, the OE wait can not be skipped.

But I do not think this is the most elegant solution, nor covers all
cases. E.g. if the bio is submitted but IO failed, we are unable to do
the revert.

I believe the more elegant one would be extend the EXTENT_DIO_LOCKED
lifespan for direct writes, so that we can update the isize when a
write beyond EOF finished successfully.

However that change is too huge for a small bug fix.
So only implement the minimal partial fix for now.

[REASON FOR NO FIXES TAG]
The bug is again very old, before commit f85781fb505e ("btrfs: switch to
iomap for direct IO") we are already increasing isize without a
proper rollback for short writes.

Thus only a CC to stable.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20260528111659.87113-1-wqu@suse.com/

[CAUSE]
Inside __iomap_dio_rw(), the -EFAULT/-ENOTBLK error is not directly returned.
Thus we never got an error pointer from __iomap_dio_rw().

The call chain looks like this:

 btrfs_direct_write()
 |- btrfs_dio_write()
 |-  __iomap_dio_rw()
 |  |- iomap_iter()
 |  |  |- btrfs_dio_iomap_begin()
 |  |     Now an ordered extent is allocated for the 4K write.
 |  |
 |  |- iomi.status = iomap_dio_iter()
 |  |  Where iomap_dio_iter() returned -EFAULT.
 |  |
 |  |- ret = iomap_iter()
 |  |  |- btrfs_dio_iomap_end()
 |  |  |  |- btrfs_finish_ordered_extent(uptodate = false)
 |  |  |  |  |- can_finish_ordered_extent()
 |  |  |  |     |- btrfs_mark_ordered_extent_error()
 |  |  |  |        |- mapping_set_error()
 |  |  |  |           Now the address space is marked error.
 |  |  |  | return -ENOTBLK
 |  |  |- return -ENOTBLK
 |  |- if (ret == -ENOTBLK) { ret = 0; }
 |     Now the return value is reset to 0.
 |     Thus no error pointer will be returned.
 |
 |- ret = iomap_dio_complete()
 |  Since no byte is submitted, @ret is 0.
 |
 |- Fallback to buffered IO
 |  And the buffered write finished without error
 |
 |- filemap_fdatawait_range()
    |- filemap_check_errors()
       The previous error is recorded, thus an error is returned

However the buffered write is properly submitted and finished, the error
is from the btrfs_finish_ordered_extent() call with @uptodate = false.

[FIX]
When a short dio write happened, any range that is submitted will have
btrfs_extract_ordered_extent() to be called, thus the submitted range
will always have an OE just covering the submitted range.

The remaining OE range is never submitted, thus they should be treated
as truncated, not an error. So that we can properly reclaim and not
insert an unnecessary file extent item, without marking the mapping as
error.

Extract a helper, btrfs_mark_ordered_extent_truncated(), and utilize
that helper to mark the direct IO ordered extent as truncated, so it
won't cause failure for the later buffered fallback.

[REASON FOR NO FIXES TAG]
The bug itself is pretty old, at commit f85781fb505e ("btrfs: switch to
iomap for direct IO") we're already passing @uptodate=false finishing
the OE.
But at that time OE with IOERR won't call mapping_set_error(), so it's
not exposed.
Later commit d61bec08b904 ("btrfs: mark ordered extent and inode with
error if we fail to finish") finally exposed the bug, but that commit
is doing a correct job, not the root cause.

Anyway the bug is very old, dating back to 5.1x days, thus only CC to
stable.

  BTRFS info (device dm-2 state E): last unmount of filesystem d8a19a28-3232-4809-b0df-38df83e71bff

[CAUSE]
Inside btrfs we have the following pattern in several locations, for
example inside btrfs_dirty_folio():

	btrfs_clear_extent_bit(&amp;inode-&gt;io_tree, start_pos, end_of_last_block,
			       EXTENT_DELALLOC | EXTENT_DO_ACCOUNTING | EXTENT_DEFRAG,
			       cached);

	ret = btrfs_set_extent_delalloc(inode, start_pos, end_of_last_block,
					extra_bits, cached);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

However btrfs_set_extent_delalloc() can return IO errors other than -ENOMEM
through the following callchain:

 btrfs_set_extent_delalloc()
 \- btrfs_find_new_delalloc_bytes()
    \- btrfs_get_extent()
       \- btrfs_lookup_file_extent()
          \- btrfs_search_slot()

When such IO error happened, the previous btrfs_clear_extent_bit() has
cleared the EXTENT_DELALLOC for the range, and we're expecting
btrfs_set_extent_delalloc() to re-set EXTENT_DELALLOC.

But since btrfs_set_extent_delalloc() failed before
btrfs_set_extent_bit(), EXTENT_DELALLOC flag is no longer present.

And if the folio range is dirty before entering
btrfs_set_extent_delalloc(), we got a dirty folio but no EXTENT_DELALLOC
flag now.

Then we hit the folio writeback:

  extent_writepage()
  |- writepage_delalloc()
  |  No ordered extent is created, as there is no EXTENT_DELALLOC set
  |  for the folio range.
  |  This also means the folio has no ordered flag set.
  |
  |- extent_writepage_io()
     \- if (unlikely(!folio_test_ordered(folio))
        Now we hit the warning.

[FIX]
Introduce a new helper, btrfs_reset_extent_delalloc() to replace the
currently open-coded btrfs_clear_extent_bit() +
btrfs_set_extent_delalloc() combination.

Instead of calling btrfs_clear_extent_bit() first, update
EXTENT_DELALLOC_NEW first, as that part can fail due to metadata IO,
meanwhile btrfs_clear_extent_bit() and btrfs_set_extent_bit() won't
return any error but retry memory allocation until succeeded.

This allows us to fail early without clearing EXTENT_DELALLOC bit, so
even if that new btrfs_reset_extent_delalloc() failed before touching
EXTENT_DELALLOC, the existing dirty range will still have their old
EXTENT_DELALLOC flag present, thus avoid the warning.

[ Upstream commit 52416a27aabc43eab3792fd0ca9f5dabeab58f31 ]

Don't account the free space in a data relocation space-info sub-group as
usable free space in statfs.

This is misleading as no user allocations can be made in this space-info
sub-group. It is only a target for relocation.

<title>btrfs: fix invalid pointer dereference in __btrfs_run_delayed_refs()</title>

[ Upstream commit 486f8298b6188ff11ef1f4be7f1d5d2e4d1b1fae ]

In the beginning of the loop, we try to obtain a locked delayed ref head,
if 'locked_ref' is currently NULL, by calling btrfs_select_ref_head(),
which can return an error pointer. If the error pointer is -EAGAIN we do
a continue and go back to the beginning of the loop, which will not try
again to call btrfs_select_ref_head() since 'locked_ref' is no longer
NULL but it's ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN), and then we do:

   spin_lock(&amp;locked_ref-&gt;lock);

against a ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) value, generating an invalid pointer
dereference.

Fix this by ensuring that 'locked_ref' is set to NULL when
btrfs_select_ref_head() returns ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) and incrementing 'count'
as well, to prevent infinite looping. We do this by doing a goto to the
bottom of the loop that already sets 'locked_ref' to NULL and does a
cond_resched(), with an increment to 'count' right before the goto.
These measures were in place before the refactoring in commit 0110a4c43451
("btrfs: refactor __btrfs_run_delayed_refs loop") but were unintentionally
lost afterwards.

commit 1b1937eb08f51319bf71575484cde2b8c517aedc upstream.

[BUG]
There is a bug report that btrfs/242 can randomly fail with the
following NULL pointer dereference:

Also the reporter is very kind to test the following ASSERT() added to
btrfs_trim_free_extents_throttle():

	ASSERT(device-&gt;bdev,
	       "devid=%llu path=%s dev_state=0x%lx\n",
	       device-&gt;devid, btrfs_dev_name(device), device-&gt;dev_state);

And it shows the following output:

  assertion failed: device-&gt;bdev, in extent-tree.c:6630 (devid=2 path=/dev/sdd dev_state=0x82)

Which means the device-&gt;bdev is NULL, and the dev_state is
BTRFS_DEV_STATE_IN_FS_METADATA | BTRFS_DEV_STATE_ITEM_FOUND, without
BTRFS_DEV_STATE_WRITEABLE flag set.

[CAUSE]
The pc points to the following call chain:

  btrfs_trim_fs()
  |- btrfs_trim_free_extents()
     |- btrfs_trim_free_extents_throttle()
        |- bdev_max_discard_sectors(device-&gt;bdev)

So the NULL pointer dereference is caused by device-&gt;bdev being NULL.

This looks impossible by a quick glance, as just before calling
btrfs_trim_free_extents_throttle(), we have skipped any device that has
BTRFS_DEV_STATE_MISSING flag set.

However in this particular case, there is a window where the missing
device is later re-scanned, causing btrfs to remove the
BTRFS_DEV_STATE_MISSING flag:

  btrfs_control_ioctl()
  |- btrfs_scan_one_device()
     |- device_list_add()
        |- rcu_assign_pointer(device-&gt;name, name);
        |  This updates the missing device's path to the new good path.
        |
        |- clear_bit(BTRFS_DEV_STATE_MISSING, &amp;device-&gt;dev_state)
           This removes the BTRFS_DEV_STATE_MISSING flag.

This allows the missing device to re-appear and clear the
BTRFS_DEV_STATE_MISSING flag.  However the device still does not have
the BTRFS_DEV_STATE_WRITEABLE flag set, nor is its bdev pointer updated.

The bdev pointer remains NULL, triggering the crash later.

[FIX]
This is a big de-synchronization between BTRFS_DEV_STATE_MISSING and
device-&gt;bdev pointer, and shows a gap in btrfs's re-appearing-device
handling.

The proper handling of re-appearing device will need quite some extra
work, which is out of the context of this small fix.

Thankfully the regular bbio submission path has already handled it well
by checking if the device-&gt;bdev is NULL before submitting.

So here we just fix the crash by checking if the device is writeable and
has a bdev pointer before calling bdev_max_discard_sectors().
