2008-11-07ext4: Mark the buffer_heads as dirty and uptodate after prepare_writeAneesh Kumar K.V1-0/+2
We need to make sure we mark the buffer_heads as dirty and uptodate so that block_write_full_page write them correctly. This fixes mmap corruptions that can occur in low memory situations.

2008-11-07ext4: calculate journal credits correctlyTheodore Ts'o1-2/+3
This fixes a 2.6.27 regression which was introduced in commit a02908f1. We weren't passing the chunk parameter down to the two subections, ext4_indirect_trans_blocks() and ext4_ext_index_trans_blocks(), with the result that massively overestimate the amount of credits needed by ext4_da_writepages, especially in the non-extents case. This causes failures especially on /boot partitions, which tend to be small and non-extent using since GRUB doesn't handle extents.

2008-11-04ext4: wait on all pending commits in ext4_sync_fs()Theodore Ts'o1-11/+8
In ext4_sync_fs, we only wait for a commit to finish if we started it, but there may be one already in progress which will not be synced. In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long symlinks which are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing block device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits, seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new or previously freed block data to userspace. To ensure all commits are synced, we flush all journal commits now when sync_fs'ing ext4.

2008-11-07jbd2: don't give up looking for space so easily in __jbd2_log_wait_for_spaceTheodore Ts'o1-7/+25
Commit 23f8b79e introducd a regression because it assumed that if there were no transactions ready to be checkpointed, that no progress could be made on making space available in the journal, and so the journal should be aborted. This assumption is false; it could be the case that simply calling jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() will recover the necessary space, or, for small journals, the currently committing transaction could be responsible for chewing up the required space in the log, so we need to wait for the currently committing transaction to finish before trying to force a checkpoint operation.

2008-11-01saner FASYNC handling on file closeAl Viro4-7/+4
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync() need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget. So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set. And lose that crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we don't have to bother anymore.

2008-10-31NLM: Set address family before calling nlm_host_rebooted()Chuck Lever2-0/+2
The nlm_host_rebooted() function uses nlm_cmp_addr() to find an nsm_handle that matches the rebooted peer. In order for this to work, the passed-in address must have a proper address family. This fixes a post-2.6.28 regression introduced by commit 781b61a6, which added AF_INET6 support to nlm_cmp_addr(). Before that commit, nlm_cmp_addr() didn't care about the address family; it compared only the sin_addr.s_addr field for equality. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J.

Before 14f7dd632011bb89c035722edd6ea0d90ca6b078 "[PATCH] Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code", readdir_cd->err was reset to eof before each call to vfs_readdir; afterwards, it is set only once. Similarly, c002a6c7977320f95b5edede5ce4e0eeecf291ff "[PATCH] Optimise NFS readdir hack slightly", can cause us to exit without nfserr_eof set. Fix this. This ensures the "eof" bit is set when needed in readdir replies. (The particular case I saw was an nfsv4 readdir of an empty directory, which returned with no entries (the protocol requires "." and ".." to be filtered out), but with eof unset.)

2008-10-30ecryptfs: fix memory corruption when storing crypto info in xattrsEric Sandeen1-7/+8
When ecryptfs allocates space to write crypto headers into, before copying it out to file headers or to xattrs, it looks at the value of crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front to determine how much space it needs. This is also used as the file offset to the actual encrypted data, so for xattr-stored crypto info, the value was zero. So, we kzalloc'd 0 bytes, and then ran off to write to that memory. (Which returned as ZERO_SIZE_PTR, so we explode quickly). The right answer is to always allocate a page to write into; the current code won't ever write more than that (this is enforced by the (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset) length in the call to ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set). To be explicit about this, we now send in a "max" parameter, rather than magically using PAGE_CACHE_SIZE there. Also, since the pointer we pass down the callchain eventually gets the virt_to_page() treatment, we should be using a alloc_page variant, not kzalloc (see also 7fcba054373d5dfc43d26e243a5c9b92069972ee) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael Halcrow <mhalcrow@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-10-26epoll: avoid double-inserts in case of EFAULTDavide Libenzi1-2/+9
In commit f337b9c58332bdecde965b436e47ea4c94d30da0 ("epoll: drop unnecessary test") Thomas found that there is an unnecessary (always true) test in ep_send_events(). The callback never inserts into ->rdllink while the send loop is performed, and also does the ~EP_PRIVATE_BITS test. Given we're holding the mutex during this time, the conditions tested inside the loop are always true. HOWEVER. The test "!ep_is_linked(&epi->rdllink)" wasn't there because we insert into ->rdllink, but because the send-events loop might terminate before the whole list is scanned (-EFAULT). In such cases, when the loop terminates early, and when a (leftover) file received an event while we're performing the lockless loop, we need such test to avoid to double insert the epoll items. The list_splice() done a few steps below, will correctly re-insert the ones that were left on "txlist". This should fix the kenrel.org bugzilla entry 11831.

2008-10-26select: deal with math overflow from borderline valid userland dataArjan van de Ven2-4/+6
Some userland apps seem to pass in a "0" for the seconds, and several seconds worth of usecs to select(). The old kernels accepted this just fine, so the new kernels must too. However, due to the upscaling of the microseconds to nanoseconds we had some cases where we got math overflow, and depending on the GCC version (due to inlining decisions) that actually resulted in an -EINVAL return. This patch fixes this by adding the excess microseconds to the seconds field. Also with thanks to Marcin Slusarz for spotting some implementation bugs in the diagnostics patches.

The __log_wait_for_space function sits in a loop checkpointing transactions until there is sufficient space free in the journal. However, if there are no transactions to be processed (e.g. because the free space calculation is wrong due to a corrupted filesystem) it will never progress.

But by commit 95450f5a7e53d5752ce1a0d0b8282e10fe745ae0 "ext3: don't read inode block if the buffer has a write error"(*), BH_Uptodate flag can be set to inode buffers with BH_Write_EIO in order to avoid reading old inode data. So now, we have to test BH_Write_EIO flag of checkpointing inode buffers instead of BH_Uptodate. This patch does it.

2008-10-23ext3: add checks for errors from jbdHidehiro Kawai2-8/+27
If the journal has aborted due to a checkpointing failure, we have to keep the contents of the journal space. Otherwise, the filesystem will lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and become inconsistent. To avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery flag if checkpoint has failed. With this patch, ext3_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure from the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes ext3_abort() to make the filesystem read only and keep needs_recovery flag. Errors from journal_flush() are also handled by this patch in some places.

2008-10-23jbd: fix error handling for checkpoint ioHidehiro Kawai3-20/+64
When a checkpointing IO fails, current JBD code doesn't check the error and continue journaling. This means latest metadata can be lost from both the journal and filesystem. This patch leaves the failed metadata blocks in the journal space and aborts journaling in the case of log_do_checkpoint(). To achieve this, we need to do: 1. don't remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list where in the case of __try_to_free_cp_buf() because it may be released or overwritten by a later transaction 2. log_do_checkpoint() is the last chance, remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list and abort the journal 3. when checkpointing fails, don't update the journal super block to prevent the journaled contents from being cleaned. For safety, don't update j_tail and j_tail_sequence either 4. when checkpointing fails, notify this error to the ext3 layer so that ext3 don't clear the needs_recovery flag, otherwise the journaled contents are ignored and cleaned in the recovery phase 5. if the recovery fails, keep the needs_recovery flag 6. prevent cleanup_journal_tail() from being called between __journal_drop_transaction() and journal_abort() (a race issue between journal_flush() and __log_wait_for_space() Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: <linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
