quota: Fix race of dquot_scan_active() with quota deactivation

2026-06-01T15:29:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit e93ab401da4b2e2c1b8ef2424de2f238d51c8b2d ] dquot_scan_active() can race with quota deactivation in quota_release_workfn() like: CPU0 (quota_release_workfn) CPU1 (dquot_scan_active) ============================== ============================== spin_lock(&dq_list_lock); list_replace_init( &releasing_dquots, &rls_head); /* dquot X on rls_head, dq_count == 0, DQ_ACTIVE_B still set */ spin_unlock(&dq_list_lock); synchronize_srcu(&dquot_srcu); spin_lock(&dq_list_lock); list_for_each_entry(dquot, &inuse_list, dq_inuse) { /* finds dquot X */ dquot_active(X) -> true atomic_inc(&X->dq_count); } spin_unlock(&dq_list_lock); spin_lock(&dq_list_lock); dquot = list_first_entry(&rls_head); WARN_ON_ONCE(atomic_read(&dquot->dq_count)); The problem is not only a cosmetic one as under memory pressure the caller of dquot_scan_active() can end up working on freed dquot. Fix the problem by making sure the dquot is removed from releasing list when we acquire a reference to it.

quota: Fix slow quotaoff

2023-10-25T09:54:13+00:00

commit 869b6ea1609f655a43251bf41757aa44e5350a8f upstream. Eric has reported that commit dabc8b207566 ("quota: fix dqput() to follow the guarantees dquot_srcu should provide") heavily increases runtime of generic/270 xfstest for ext4 in nojournal mode. The reason for this is that ext4 in nojournal mode leaves dquots dirty until the last dqput() and thus the cleanup done in quota_release_workfn() has to write them all. Due to the way quota_release_workfn() is written this results in synchronize_srcu() call for each dirty dquot which makes the dquot cleanup when turning quotas off extremely slow. To be able to avoid synchronize_srcu() for each dirty dquot we need to rework how we track dquots to be cleaned up. Instead of keeping the last dquot reference while it is on releasing_dquots list, we drop it right away and mark the dquot with new DQ_RELEASING_B bit instead. This way we can we can remove dquot from releasing_dquots list when new reference to it is acquired and thus there's no need to call synchronize_srcu() each time we drop dq_list_lock.

quota: simplify the quotactl compat handling

Pull series refactoring quota enabling and disabling code.

2019-11-06T09:52:10+00:00

quota: Drop dquot_enable()

2019-11-04T08:58:06+00:00

Now dquot_enable() has only two internal callers and both of them just need to update quota flags and don't need most of checks. Just drop dquot_enable() and fold necessary functionality into the two calling places. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

quota: Rename vfs_load_quota_inode() to dquot_load_quota_inode()

2019-11-04T08:58:05+00:00

Rename vfs_load_quota_inode() to dquot_load_quota_inode() to be consistent with naming of other functions used for enabling quota accounting from filesystems. Also export the function and add some sanity checks to assure filesystems are calling the function properly. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

quota: Factor out setup of quota inode

2019-11-04T08:58:01+00:00

Factor out setting up of quota inode and eventual error cleanup from vfs_load_quota_inode(). This will simplify situation for filesystems that don't have any quota inodes. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

quota: Check that quota is not dirty before release

2019-10-31T18:07:42+00:00

There is a race window where quota was redirted once we drop dq_list_lock inside dqput(), but before we grab dquot->dq_lock inside dquot_release() TASK1 TASK2 (chowner) ->dqput() we_slept: spin_lock(&dq_list_lock) if (dquot_dirty(dquot)) { spin_unlock(&dq_list_lock); dquot->dq_sb->dq_op->write_dquot(dquot); goto we_slept if (test_bit(DQ_ACTIVE_B, &dquot->dq_flags)) { spin_unlock(&dq_list_lock); dquot->dq_sb->dq_op->release_dquot(dquot); dqget() mark_dquot_dirty() dqput() goto we_slept; } So dquot dirty quota will be released by TASK1, but on next we_sleept loop we detect this and call ->write_dquot() for it.

quota: fix wrong condition in is_quota_modification()

2019-09-12T10:09:16+00:00

Quoted from commit 3da40c7b0898 ("ext4: only call ext4_truncate when size <= isize") " At LSF we decided that if we truncate up from isize we shouldn't trim fallocated blocks that were fallocated with KEEP_SIZE and are past the new i_size. This patch fixes ext4 to do this. " And generic/092 of fstest have covered this case for long time, however is_quota_modification() didn't adjust based on that rule, so that in below condition, we will lose to quota block change: - fallocate blocks beyond EOF - remount - truncate(file_path, file_size) Fix it.

fs/quota: add kernel_quotactl() helper; remove in-kernel call to syscall

2018-04-02T18:15:46+00:00

Using the fs-internal kernel_quotactl() helper allows us to get rid of the fs-internal call to the sys_quotactl() syscall. This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
