[ Upstream commit 68a0178981a0f493295afa29f8880246e561494c ]

When `fileinfo-&gt;fi_flags` does not have the `FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC` bit set
and inline data has not been persisted yet, the physical address of the
extent is calculated incorrectly for unwritten inline inodes.

root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# dd if=/dev/zero of=data.3k bs=3k count=1
root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# f2fs_io fiemap 0 100 data.3k
Fiemap: offset = 0 len = 100
	logical addr.    physical addr.   length           flags
0	0000000000000000 00000ffffffff16c 0000000000000c00 00000301

This patch fixes the issue by checking if the inode's address is valid.
If the inline inode is unwritten, set the physical address to 0 and
mark the extent with `FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNKNOWN | FIEMAP_EXTENT_DELALLOC`
flags.

<title>f2fs: Introduce linear search for dentries</title>

commit 91b587ba79e1b68bb718d12b0758dbcdab4e9cb7 upstream.

This patch addresses an issue where some files in case-insensitive
directories become inaccessible due to changes in how the kernel function,
utf8_casefold(), generates case-folded strings from the commit 5c26d2f1d3f5
("unicode: Don't special case ignorable code points").

F2FS uses these case-folded names to calculate hash values for locating
dentries and stores them on disk. Since utf8_casefold() can produce
different output across kernel versions, stored hash values and newly
calculated hash values may differ. This results in affected files no
longer being found via the hash-based lookup.

To resolve this, the patch introduces a linear search fallback.
If the initial hash-based search fails, F2FS will sequentially scan the
directory entries.

[ Upstream commit a9419b63bf414775e8aeee95d8c4a5e0df690748 ]

This patch tries to mitigate lock contention between f2fs_write_checkpoint and
f2fs_get_node_info along with nat_tree_lock.

The idea is, if checkpoint is currently running, other threads that try to grab
nat_tree_lock would be better to wait for checkpoint.

commit 9a5571cff4ffcfc24847df9fd545cc5799ac0ee5 upstream.

When converting an inline directory to a regular one, f2fs is leaking
uninitialized memory to disk because it doesn't initialize the entire
directory block.  Fix this by zero-initializing the block.

This bug was introduced by commit 4ec17d688d74 ("f2fs: avoid unneeded
initializing when converting inline dentry"), which didn't consider the
security implications of leaking uninitialized memory to disk.

This was found by running xfstest generic/435 on a KMSAN-enabled kernel.

commit 677a82b44ebf263d4f9a0cfbd576a6ade797a07b upstream.

Yanming reported a kernel bug in Bugzilla kernel [1], which can be
reproduced. The bug message is:

The kernel message is shown below:

kernel BUG at fs/inode.c:611!
Call Trace:
 evict+0x282/0x4e0
 __dentry_kill+0x2b2/0x4d0

 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90

[1] https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215895

The bug is due to fuzzed inode has both inline_data and encrypted flags.
During f2fs_evict_inode(), as the inode was deleted by rename(), it
will cause inline data conversion due to conflicting flags. The page
cache will be polluted and the panic will be triggered in clear_inode().

Try fixing the bug by doing more sanity checks for inline data inode in
sanity_check_inode().

This patch adds a new function f2fs_dquot_initialize() to wrap
dquot_initialize(), and it supports to inject fault into
f2fs_dquot_initialize() to simulate inner failure occurs in
dquot_initialize().

Usage:
a) echo 65536 &gt; /sys/fs/f2fs/&lt;dev&gt;/inject_type or
b) mount -o fault_type=65536 &lt;dev&gt; &lt;mountpoint&gt;

<title>f2fs: restructure f2fs page.private layout</title>
<updated>2021-05-14T18:22:08+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=b763f3bedc2da2edf81bba550430847f561eae0e'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b763f3bedc2da2edf81bba550430847f561eae0e</id>
<content type='text'>
Restruct f2fs page private layout for below reasons:

There are some cases that f2fs wants to set a flag in a page to
indicate a specified status of page:
a) page is in transaction list for atomic write
b) page contains dummy data for aligned write
c) page is migrating for GC
d) page contains inline data for inline inode flush
e) page belongs to merkle tree, and is verified for fsverity
f) page is dirty and has filesystem/inode reference count for writeback
g) page is temporary and has decompress io context reference for compression

There are existed places in page structure we can use to store
f2fs private status/data:
- page.flags: PG_checked, PG_private
- page.private

However it was a mess when we using them, which may cause potential
confliction:
		page.private	PG_private	PG_checked	page._refcount (+1 at most)
a)		-1		set				+1
b)		-2		set
c), d), e)					set
f)		0		set				+1
g)		pointer		set

The other problem is page.flags has no free slot, if we can avoid set
zero to page.private and set PG_private flag, then we use non-zero value
to indicate PG_private status, so that we may have chance to reclaim
PG_private slot for other usage. [1]

The other concern is f2fs has bad scalability in aspect of indicating
more page status.

So in this patch, let's restructure f2fs' page.private as below to
solve above issues:

Layout A: lowest bit should be 1
| bit0 = 1 | bit1 | bit2 | ... | bit MAX | private data .... |
 bit 0	PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER
 bit 1	PAGE_PRIVATE_ATOMIC_WRITE
 bit 2	PAGE_PRIVATE_DUMMY_WRITE
 bit 3	PAGE_PRIVATE_ONGOING_MIGRATION
 bit 4	PAGE_PRIVATE_INLINE_INODE
 bit 5	PAGE_PRIVATE_REF_RESOURCE
 bit 6-	f2fs private data

Layout B: lowest bit should be 0
 page.private is a wrapped pointer.

After the change:
		page.private	PG_private	PG_checked	page._refcount (+1 at most)
a)		11		set				+1
b)		101		set				+1
c)		1001		set				+1
d)		10001		set				+1
e)						set
f)		100001		set				+1
g)		pointer		set				+1

The  uninitialized variable dn.node_changed does not get set when a
call to f2fs_get_node_page fails.  This uninitialized value gets used
in the call to f2fs_balance_fs() that may or not may not balances
dirty node and dentry pages depending on the uninitialized state of
the variable. Fix this by only calling f2fs_balance_fs if err is
not set.

Thanks to Jaegeuk Kim for suggesting an appropriate fix.
