* UBIFS: fix mounting problems after power cutsArtem Bityutskiy2012-11-261-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit a28ad42a4a0c6f302f488f26488b8b37c9b30024 upstream. This is a bugfix for a problem with the following symptoms: 1. A power cut happens 2. After reboot, we try to mount UBIFS 3. Mount fails with "No space left on device" error message UBIFS complains like this: UBIFS error (pid 28225): grab_empty_leb: could not find an empty LEB The root cause of this problem is that when we mount, not all LEBs are categorized. Only those which were read are. However, the 'ubifs_find_free_leb_for_idx()' function assumes that all LEBs were categorized and 'c->freeable_cnt' is valid, which is a false assumption. This patch fixes the problem by teaching 'ubifs_find_free_leb_for_idx()' to always fall back to LPT scanning if no freeable LEBs were found. This problem was reported by few people in the past, but Brent Taylor was able to reproduce it and send me a flash image which cannot be mounted, which made it easy to hunt the bug. Kudos to Brent.

* xfs: fix reading of wrapped log dataDave Chinner2012-11-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 6ce377afd1755eae5c93410ca9a1121dfead7b87 upstream. Commit 4439647 ("xfs: reset buffer pointers before freeing them") in 3.0-rc1 introduced a regression when recovering log buffers that wrapped around the end of log. The second part of the log buffer at the start of the physical log was being read into the header buffer rather than the data buffer, and hence recovery was seeing garbage in the data buffer when it got to the region of the log buffer that was incorrectly read.

* NFS: fix bug in legacy DNS resolver.NeilBrown2012-11-171-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 8d96b10639fb402357b75b055b1e82a65ff95050 upstream. The DNS resolver's use of the sunrpc cache involves a 'ttl' number (relative) rather that a timeout (absolute). This confused me when I wrote commit c5b29f885afe890f953f7f23424045cdad31d3e4 "sunrpc: use seconds since boot in expiry cache" and I managed to break it. The effect is that any TTL is interpreted as 0, and nothing useful gets into the cache. This patch removes the use of get_expiry() - which really expects an expiry time - and uses get_uint() instead, treating the int correctly as a ttl. This fixes a regression that has been present since 2.6.37, causing certain NFS accesses in certain environments to incorrectly fail.

* nfs: Show original device name verbatim in /proc/*/mount{s,info}Ben Hutchings2012-11-174-9/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 97a54868262da1629a3e65121e65b8e8c4419d9f upstream. Since commit c7f404b ('vfs: new superblock methods to override /proc/*/mount{s,info}'), nfs_path() is used to generate the mounted device name reported back to userland. nfs_path() always generates a trailing slash when the given dentry is the root of an NFS mount, but userland may expect the original device name to be returned verbatim (as it used to be). Make this canonicalisation optional and change the callers accordingly.

* nfsv3: Make v3 mounts fail with ETIMEDOUTs instead EIO on mountd timeoutsScott Mayhew2012-11-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit acce94e68a0f346115fd41cdc298197d2d5a59ad upstream. In very busy v3 environment, rpc.mountd can respond to the NULL procedure but not the MNT procedure in a timely manner causing the MNT procedure to time out. The problem is the mount system call returns EIO which causes the mount to fail, instead of ETIMEDOUT, which would cause the mount to be retried. This patch sets the RPC_TASK_SOFT|RPC_TASK_TIMEOUT flags to the rpc_call_sync() call in nfs_mount() which causes ETIMEDOUT to be returned on timed out connections.

* sysfs: sysfs_pathname/sysfs_add_one: Use strlcat() instead of strcat()Geert Uytterhoeven2012-10-311-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 66081a72517a131430dcf986775f3268aafcb546 upstream. The warning check for duplicate sysfs entries can cause a buffer overflow when printing the warning, as strcat() doesn't check buffer sizes. Use strlcat() instead. Since strlcat() doesn't return a pointer to the passed buffer, unlike strcat(), I had to convert the nested concatenation in sysfs_add_one() to an admittedly more obscure comma operator construct, to avoid emitting code for the concatenation if CONFIG_BUG is disabled.

* jbd: Fix assertion failure in commit code due to lacking transaction creditsJan Kara2012-10-212-31/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 09e05d4805e6c524c1af74e524e5d0528bb3fef3 upstream. ext3 users of data=journal mode with blocksize < pagesize were occasionally hitting assertion failure in journal_commit_transaction() checking whether the transaction has at least as many credits reserved as buffers attached. The core of the problem is that when a file gets truncated, buffers that still need checkpointing or that are attached to the committing transaction are left with buffer_mapped set. When this happens to buffers beyond i_size attached to a page stradding i_size, subsequent write extending the file will see these buffers and as they are mapped (but underlying blocks were freed) things go awry from here. The assertion failure just coincidentally (and in this case luckily as we would start corrupting filesystem) triggers due to journal_head not being properly cleaned up as well. Under some rare circumstances this bug could even hit data=ordered mode users. There the assertion won't trigger and we would end up corrupting the filesystem. We fix the problem by unmapping buffers if possible (in lots of cases we just need a buffer attached to a transaction as a place holder but it must not be written out anyway). And in one case, we just have to bite the bullet and wait for transaction commit to finish.

* ext4: fix fdatasync() for files with only i_size changesJan Kara2012-10-131-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit b71fc079b5d8f42b2a52743c8d2f1d35d655b1c5 upstream. Code tracking when transaction needs to be committed on fdatasync(2) forgets to handle a situation when only inode's i_size is changed. Thus in such situations fdatasync(2) doesn't force transaction with new i_size to disk and that can result in wrong i_size after a crash. Fix the issue by updating inode's i_datasync_tid whenever its size is updated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 8110e16d42d587997bcaee0c864179e6d93603fe upstream. IBM reported a deadlock in select_parent(). This was found to be caused by taking rename_lock when already locked when restarting the tree traversal. There are two cases when the traversal needs to be restarted: 1) concurrent d_move(); this can only happen when not already locked, since taking rename_lock protects against concurrent d_move(). 2) racing with final d_put() on child just at the moment of ascending to parent; rename_lock doesn't protect against this rare race, so it can happen when already locked. Because of case 2, we need to be able to handle restarting the traversal when rename_lock is already held. This patch fixes all three callers of try_to_ascend(). IBM reported that the deadlock is gone with this patch. [ I rewrote the patch to be smaller and just do the "goto again" if the lock was already held, but credit goes to Miklos for the real work. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

* NFS: Fix the initialisation of the readdir 'cookieverf' arrayTrond Myklebust2012-10-023-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit c3f52af3e03013db5237e339c817beaae5ec9e3a upstream. When the NFS_COOKIEVERF helper macro was converted into a static inline function in commit 99fadcd764 (nfs: convert NFS_*(inode) helpers to static inline), we broke the initialisation of the readdir cookies, since that depended on doing a memset with an argument of 'sizeof(NFS_COOKIEVERF(inode))' which therefore changed from sizeof(be32 cookieverf[2]) to sizeof(be32 *). At this point, NFS_COOKIEVERF seems to be more of an obfuscation than a helper, so the best thing would be to just get rid of it.

* eCryptfs: Copy up attributes of the lower target inode after renameTyler Hicks2012-10-021-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 8335eafc2859e1a26282bef7c3d19f3d68868b8a upstream. After calling into the lower filesystem to do a rename, the lower target inode's attributes were not copied up to the eCryptfs target inode. This resulted in the eCryptfs target inode staying around, rather than being evicted, because i_nlink was not updated for the eCryptfs inode. This also meant that eCryptfs didn't do the final iput() on the lower target inode so it stayed around, as well. This would result in a failure to free up space occupied by the target file in the rename() operation. Both target inodes would eventually be evicted when the eCryptfs filesystem was unmounted. This patch calls fsstack_copy_attr_all() after the lower filesystem does its ->rename() so that important inode attributes, such as i_nlink, are updated at the eCryptfs layer. ecryptfs_evict_inode() is now called and eCryptfs can drop its final reference on the lower inode. http://launchpad.net/bugs/561129 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Tested-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
* vfs: dcache: use DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED instead of DCACHE_DISCONNECTED in d_kill()Miklos Szeredi2012-10-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit b161dfa6937ae46d50adce8a7c6b12233e96e7bd upstream. IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock deadlock. Commit c83ce989cb5f ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit. The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the dentry was killed. This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too, which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry tree. This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag. IBM reported successful test results with this patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 55815f70147dcfa3ead5738fd56d3574e2e3c1c2 upstream. We already use them for openat() and friends, but fstat() also wants to be able to use O_PATH file descriptors. This should make it more directly comparable to the O_SEARCH of Solaris. Note that you could already do the same thing with "fstatat()" and an empty path, but just doing "fstat()" directly is simpler and faster, so there is no reason not to just allow it directly.

Code tracking when transaction needs to be committed on fdatasync(2) forgets to handle a situation when only inode's i_size is changed. Thus in such situations fdatasync(2) doesn't force transaction with new i_size to disk and that can result in wrong i_size after a crash.

When a file is stored in ICB (inode), we overwrite part of the file, and the page containing file's data is not in page cache, we end up corrupting file's data by overwriting them with zeros. The problem is we use simple_write_begin() which simply zeroes parts of the page which are not written to. The problem has been introduced by be021ee4 (udf: convert to new aops).

* block: replace __getblk_slow misfix by grow_dev_page fixHugh Dickins2012-09-141-36/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 676ce6d5ca3098339c028d44fe0427d1566a4d2d upstream. Commit 91f68c89d8f3 ("block: fix infinite loop in __getblk_slow") is not good: a successful call to grow_buffers() cannot guarantee that the page won't be reclaimed before the immediate next call to __find_get_block(), which is why there was always a loop there. Yesterday I got "EXT4-fs error (device loop0): __ext4_get_inode_loc:3595: inode #19278: block 664: comm cc1: unable to read itable block" on console, which pointed to this commit. I've been trying to bisect for weeks, why kbuild-on-ext4-on-loop-on-tmpfs sometimes fails from a missing header file, under memory pressure on ppc G5. I've never seen this on x86, and I've never seen it on 3.5-rc7 itself, despite that commit being in there: bisection pointed to an irrelevant pinctrl merge, but hard to tell when failure takes between 18 minutes and 38 hours (but so far it's happened quicker on 3.6-rc2). (I've since found such __ext4_get_inode_loc errors in /var/log/messages from previous weeks: why the message never appeared on console until yesterday morning is a mystery for another day.) Revert 91f68c89d8f3, restoring __getblk_slow() to how it was (plus a checkpatch nitfix). Simplify the interface between grow_buffers() and grow_dev_page(), and avoid the infinite loop beyond end of device by instead checking init_page_buffers()'s end_block there (I presume that's more efficient than a repeated call to blkdev_max_block()), returning -ENXIO to __getblk_slow() in that case. And remove akpm's ten-year-old "__getblk() cannot fail ... weird" comment, but that is worrying: are all users of __getblk() really now prepared for a NULL bh beyond end of device, or will some oops??

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 47fbf7976e0b7d9dcdd799e2a1baba19064d9631 upstream. Ever since commit 0a57cdac3f (NFSv4.1 send layoutreturn to fence disconnected data server) we've been sending layoutreturn calls while there is potentially still outstanding I/O to the data servers. The reason we do this is to avoid races between replayed writes to the MDS and the original writes to the DS. When this happens, the BUG_ON() in nfs4_layoutreturn_done can be triggered because it assumes that we would never call layoutreturn without knowing that all I/O to the DS is finished. The fix is to remove the BUG_ON() now that the assumptions behind the test are obsolete.

The iovec could still overflow by starting with a small element. The obvious fix is to check all the elements. The overflow case doesn't look dangerous to the kernel as the copy is limited by the length after the overflow. This fix restores the intention of returning an error instead of successfully copying less than the iovec represented. I found this by code inspection. I built it but don't have a test case.

This is because nilfs_ioctl_change_cpmode() first locks sb->s_umount in read mode and then waits for unfreezing in nilfs_transaction_begin(), whereas thaw_super() locks sb->s_umount in write mode. The locking of sb->s_umount here was intended to make snapshot mounts and the downgrade of snapshots to checkpoints exclusive. This fixes the deadlock issue by replacing the sb->s_umount usage in nilfs_ioctl_change_cpmode() with a dedicated mutex which protects snapshot mounts.

The VM ends up calling ->releasepage to get more memory, and it tries to do a blocking commit. That commit can't succeed however without a connected socket, so we deadlock. Fix this by setting PF_FSTRANS on the workqueue task prior to doing the socket allocation, and having nfs_release_page check for that flag when deciding whether to do a commit call. Also, set PF_FSTRANS unconditionally in rpc_async_schedule since that function can also do allocations sometimes.

* nfsd4: our filesystems are normally case sensitiveJ. Bruce Fields2012-08-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | commit 2930d381d22b9c56f40dd4c63a8fa59719ca2c3c upstream. Actually, xfs and jfs can optionally be case insensitive; we'll handle that case in later patches. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
* Btrfs: call the ordered free operation without any locks heldChris Mason2012-08-091-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit e9fbcb42201c862fd6ab45c48ead4f47bb2dea9d upstream. Each ordered operation has a free callback, and this was called with the worker spinlock held. Josef made the free callback also call iput, which we can't do with the spinlock. This drops the spinlock for the free operation and grabs it again before moving through the rest of the list. We'll circle back around to this and find a cleaner way that doesn't bounce the lock around so much.

* locks: fix checking of fcntl_setlease argumentJ. Bruce Fields2012-08-091-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 0ec4f431eb56d633da3a55da67d5c4b88886ccc7 upstream. The only checks of the long argument passed to fcntl(fd,F_SETLEASE,.) are done after converting the long to an int. Thus some illegal values may be let through and cause problems in later code. [ They actually *don't* cause problems in mainline, as of Dave Jones's commit 8d657eb3b438 "Remove easily user-triggerable BUG from generic_setlease", but we should fix this anyway. And this patch will be necessary to fix real bugs on earlier kernels. ] Signed-off-by: J.

* mm: compaction: introduce sync-light migration for use by compactionMel Gorman2012-08-014-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit a6bc32b899223a877f595ef9ddc1e89ead5072b8 upstream. Stable note: Not tracked in Buzilla. This was part of a series that reduced interactivity stalls experienced when THP was enabled. These stalls were particularly noticable when copying data to a USB stick but the experiences for users varied a lot. This patch adds a lightweight sync migrate operation MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT mode that avoids writing back pages to backing storage. Async compaction maps to MIGRATE_ASYNC while sync compaction maps to MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT. For other migrate_pages users such as memory hotplug, MIGRATE_SYNC is used. This avoids sync compaction stalling for an excessive length of time, particularly when copying files to a USB stick where there might be a large number of dirty pages backed by a filesystem that does not support ->writepages.
