2015-05-06ext4: make fsync to sync parent dir in no-journal for real this timeLukas Czerner
commit e12fb97222fc41e8442896934f76d39ef99b590a upstream. Previously commit 14ece1028b3ed53ffec1b1213ffc6acaf79ad77c added a support for for syncing parent directory of newly created inodes to make sure that the inode is not lost after a power failure in no-journal mode. However this does not work in majority of cases, namely: - if the directory has inline data - if the directory is already indexed - if the directory already has at least one block and: - the new entry fits into it - or we've successfully converted it to indexed So in those cases we might lose the inode entirely even after fsync in the no-journal mode. This also includes ext2 default mode obviously. I've noticed this while running xfstest generic/321 and even though the test should fail (we need to run fsck after a crash in no-journal mode) I could not find a newly created entries even when if it was fsynced before. Fix this by adjusting the ext4_add_entry() successful exit paths to set the inode EXT4_STATE_NEWENTRY so that fsync has the chance to fsync the parent directory as well.

2015-04-17fs: call rename2 if existsMiklos Szeredi
Christoph Hellwig suggests: 1) make vfs_rename call ->rename2 if it exists instead of ->rename 2) switch all filesystems that you're adding NOREPLACE support for to use ->rename2 3) see how many ->rename instances we'll have left after a few iterations of 2.

2015-04-17vfs: add RENAME_NOREPLACE flagMiklos Szeredi
If this flag is specified and the target of the rename exists then the rename syscall fails with EEXIST. The VFS does the existence checking, so it is trivial to enable for most local filesystems. This patch only enables it in ext4. For network filesystems the VFS check is not enough as there may be a race between a remote create and the rename, so these filesystems need to handle this flag in their ->rename() implementations to ensure atomicity. Andy writes about why this is useful: "The trivial answer: to eliminate the race condition from 'mv -i'. Another answer: there's a common pattern to atomically create a file with contents: open a temporary file, write to it, optionally fsync it, close it, then link(2) it to the final name, then unlink the temporary file. The reason to use link(2) is because it won't silently clobber the destination. This is annoying: - It requires an extra system call that shouldn't be necessary. - It doesn't work on (IMO sensible) filesystems that don't support hard links (e.g. vfat). - It's not atomic -- there's an intermediate state where both files exist. - It's ugly. The new rename flag will make this totally sensible. To be fair, on new enough kernels, you can also use O_TMPFILE and linkat to achieve the same thing even more cleanly."

commit f4bb2981024fc91b23b4d09a8817c415396dbabb upstream. If there is a corrupted file system which has directory entries that point at reserved, metadata inodes, prohibit them from being used by treating them the same way we treat Boot Loader inodes --- that is, mark them to be bad inodes. This prohibits them from being opened, deleted, or modified via chmod, chown, utimes, etc. In particular, this prevents a corrupted file system which has a directory entry which points at the journal inode from being deleted and its blocks released, after which point Much Hilarity Ensues.

2013-08-16ext4: allocate delayed allocation blocks before renameTheodore Ts'o
When ext4_rename() overwrites an already existing file, call ext4_alloc_da_blocks() before starting the journal handle which actually does the rename, instead of doing this afterwards. This improves the likelihood that the contents will survive a crash if an application replaces a file using the sequence: 1) write replacement contents to foo.new 2) <omit fsync of foo.new> 3) rename foo.new to foo It is still not a guarantee, since ext4_alloc_da_blocks() is *not* doing a file integrity sync; this means if foo.new is a very large file, it may not be completely flushed out to disk. However, for files smaller than a megabyte or so, any dirty pages should be flushed out before we do the rename operation, and so at the next journal commit, the CACHE FLUSH command will make sure al of these pages are safely on the disk platter.

2013-07-20ext4: fix a BUG when opening a file with O_TMPFILE flagZheng Liu
When we try to open a file with O_TMPFILE flag, we will trigger a bug. The root cause is that in ext4_orphan_add() we check ->i_nlink == 0 and this check always fails because we set ->i_nlink = 1 in inode_init_always(). We can use the following program to trigger it: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int fd; fd = open(argv[1], O_TMPFILE, 0666); if (fd < 0) { perror("open "); return -1; } close(fd); return 0; } The oops message looks like this: kernel BUG at fs/ext4/namei.c:2572! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: dlci bridge stp hidp cmtp kernelcapi l2tp_ppp l2tp_netlink l2tp_core sctp libcrc32c rfcomm tun fuse nfnetli nk can_raw ipt_ULOG can_bcm x25 scsi_transport_iscsi ipx p8023 p8022 appletalk phonet psnap vmw_vsock_vmci_transport af_key vmw_vmci rose vsock atm can netrom ax25 af_rxrpc ir da pppoe pppox ppp_generic slhc bluetooth nfc rfkill rds caif_socket caif crc_ccitt af_802154 llc2 llc snd_hda_codec_realtek snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec serio_raw snd_pcm pcsp kr edac_core snd_page_alloc snd_timer snd soundcore r8169 mii sr_mod cdrom pata_atiixp radeon backlight drm_kms_helper ttm CPU: 1 PID: 1812571 Comm: trinity-child2 Not tainted 3.11.0-rc1+ #12 Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

2013-04-19ext4: fix readdir error in the case of inline_data+dir_indexTao Ma
Zach reported a problem that if inline data is enabled, we don't tell the difference between the offset of '.' and '..'. And a getdents will fail if the user only want to get '.' and what's worse, if there is a conversion happens when the user calls getdents many times, he/she may get the same entry twice. In theory, a dir block would also fail if it is converted to a hashed-index based dir since f_pos will become a hash value, not the real one, but it doesn't happen. And a deep investigation shows that we uses a hash based solution even for a normal dir if the dir_index feature is enabled. So this patch just adds a new htree_inlinedir_to_tree for inline dir, and if we find that the hash index is supported, we will do like what we do for a dir block.

2013-04-19ext4: move quota initialization out of inode allocation transactionJan Kara
Inode allocation transaction is pretty heavy (246 credits with quotas and extents before previous patch, still around 200 after it). This is mostly due to credits required for allocation of quota structures (credits there are heavily overestimated but it's difficult to make better estimates if we don't want to wire non-trivial assumptions about quota format into filesystem). So move quota initialization out of allocation transaction. That way transaction for quota structure allocation will be started only if we need to look up quota structure on disk (rare) and furthermore it will be started for each quota type separately, not for all of them at once. This reduces maximum transaction size to 34 is most cases and to 73 in the worst case. [ Modified by tytso to clean up the cleanup paths for error handling. Also use a separate call to ext4_std_error() for each failure so it is easier for someone who is debugging a problem in this function to determine which function call failed. ] Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2013-02-08ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()Theodore Ts'o
So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass context information for logging purposes. The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is: T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter echo 1 > $EVENT/enable ./run-my-fs-benchmark cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms. Having longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an fsync() or an O_SYNC operation. Here is an example line from the trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over 1.2 seconds: postmark-2917 [000] .... 196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32 tid 570 type 2 line_no 2541 interval 311 sync 0 requested_blocks 1 dirtied_blocks 0 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2012-12-27ext4: avoid hang when mounting non-journal filesystems with orphan listTheodore Ts'o
When trying to mount a file system which does not contain a journal, but which does have a orphan list containing an inode which needs to be truncated, the mount call with hang forever in ext4_orphan_cleanup() because ext4_orphan_del() will return immediately without removing the inode from the orphan list, leading to an uninterruptible loop in kernel code which will busy out one of the CPU's on the system. This can be trivially reproduced by trying to mount the file system found in tests/f_orphan_extents_inode/image.gz from the e2fsprogs source tree. If a malicious user were to put this on a USB stick, and mount it on a Linux desktop which has automatic mounts enabled, this could be considered a potential denial of service attack. (Not a big deal in practice, but professional paranoids worry about such things, and have even been known to allocate CVE numbers for such problems.)

2012-12-10ext4: Remove CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTRTao Ma
Ted has sent out a RFC about removing this feature. Eric and Jan confirmed that both RedHat and SUSE enable this feature in all their product. David also said that "As far as I know, it's enabled in all Android kernels that use ext4." So it seems OK for us. And what's more, as inline data depends its implementation on xattr, and to be frank, I don't run any test again inline data enabled while xattr disabled. So I think we should add inline data and remove this config option in the same release. [ The savings if you disable CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR is only 27k, which isn't much in the grand scheme of things. Since no one seems to be testing this configuration except for some automated compile farms, on balance we are better removing this config option, and so that it is effectively always enabled. -- tytso ] Cc: David Brown <davidb@codeaurora.org> Cc: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2012-12-10ext4: let ext4_rename handle inline dirTao Ma
In case we rename a directory, ext4_rename has to read the dir block and change its dotdot's information. The old ext4_rename encapsulated the dir_block read into itself. So this patch adds a new function ext4_get_first_dir_block() which gets the dir buffer information so the ext4_rename can handle it properly. As it will also change the parent inode number, we return the parent_de so that ext4_rename() can handle it more easily. ext4_find_entry is also changed so that the caller(rename) can tell whether the found entry is an inlined one or not and journaling the corresponding buffer head.

2012-12-10ext4: let add_dir_entry handle inline data properlyTao Ma
This patch let add_dir_entry handle the inline data case. So the dir is initialized as inline dir first and then we can try to add some files to it, when the inline space can't hold all the entries, a dir block will be created and the dir entry will be moved to it. Also for an inlined dir, "." and ".." are removed and we only use 4 bytes to store the parent inode number. These 2 entries will be added when we convert an inline dir to a block-based one.
