2014-10-05nilfs2: fix data loss with mmap()Andreas Rohner
commit 56d7acc792c0d98f38f22058671ee715ff197023 upstream. This bug leads to reproducible silent data loss, despite the use of msync(), sync() and a clean unmount of the file system. It is easily reproducible with the following script: ----------------[BEGIN SCRIPT]-------------------- mkfs.nilfs2 -f /dev/sdb mount /dev/sdb /mnt dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=30 of=/mnt/testfile umount /mnt mount /dev/sdb /mnt CHECKSUM_BEFORE="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)" /root/mmaptest/mmaptest /mnt/testfile 30 10 5 sync CHECKSUM_AFTER="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)" umount /mnt mount /dev/sdb /mnt CHECKSUM_AFTER_REMOUNT="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)" umount /mnt echo "BEFORE MMAP:\t$CHECKSUM_BEFORE" echo "AFTER MMAP:\t$CHECKSUM_AFTER" echo "AFTER REMOUNT:\t$CHECKSUM_AFTER_REMOUNT" ----------------[END SCRIPT]-------------------- The mmaptest tool looks something like this (very simplified, with error checking removed): ----------------[BEGIN mmaptest]-------------------- data = mmap(NULL, file_size - file_offset, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, file_offset); for (i = 0; i < write_count; ++i) { memcpy(data + i * 4096, buf, sizeof(buf)); msync(data, file_size - file_offset, MS_SYNC)) } ----------------[END mmaptest]-------------------- The output of the script looks something like this: BEFORE MMAP: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile AFTER MMAP: 6604a1c31f10780331a6850371b3a313 /mnt/testfile AFTER REMOUNT: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile So it is clear, that the changes done using mmap() do not survive a remount. This can be reproduced a 100% of the time. The problem was introduced in commit 136e8770cd5d ("nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty() for page at EOF boundary"). If the page was read with mpage_readpage() or mpage_readpages() for example, then it has no buffers attached to it. In that case page_has_buffers(page) in nilfs_set_page_dirty() will be false. Therefore nilfs_set_file_dirty() is never called and the pages are never collected and never written to disk. This patch fixes the problem by also calling nilfs_set_file_dirty() if the page has no buffers attached to it.

2014-01-25nilfs2: fix segctor bug that causes file system corruptionAndreas Rohner
commit 70f2fe3a26248724d8a5019681a869abdaf3e89a upstream. There is a bug in the function nilfs_segctor_collect, which results in active data being written to a segment, that is marked as clean. It is possible, that this segment is selected for a later segment construction, whereby the old data is overwritten. The problem shows itself with the following kernel log message: nilfs_sufile_do_cancel_free: segment 6533 must be clean Usually a few hours later the file system gets corrupted: NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=8748107): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 0 NILFS error (device sdc1): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=114660) The issue can be reproduced with a file system that is nearly full and with the cleaner running, while some IO intensive task is running. Although it is quite hard to reproduce. This is what happens: 1. The cleaner starts the segment construction 2. nilfs_segctor_collect is called 3. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed 4. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_DAT current segment is full 5. nilfs_segctor_extend_segments is called, which allocates a new segment 6. The new segment is one of the segments freed in step 3 7. nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called and produces an error message 8. Loop around and the collection starts again 9. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed including the newly allocated segment, which will contain active data and can be allocated at a later time 10. A few hours later another segment construction allocates the segment and causes file system corruption This can be prevented by simply reordering the statements. If nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called before nilfs_segctor_extend_segments the freed segments are marked as dirty and cannot be allocated any more.

2013-10-13nilfs2: fix issue with race condition of competition between segments for ↵Vyacheslav Dubeyko
dirty blocks commit 7f42ec3941560f0902fe3671e36f2c20ffd3af0a upstream. Many NILFS2 users were reported about strange file system corruption (for example): NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=185027): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 768 NILFS error (device sda4): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=11540) But such error messages are consequence of file system's issue that takes place more earlier. Fortunately, Jerome Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com> and Anton Eliasson <devel@antoneliasson.se> were reported about another issue not so recently. These reports describe the issue with segctor thread's crash: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000004c83 IP: nilfs_end_page_io+0x12/0xd0 [nilfs2] Call Trace: nilfs_segctor_do_construct+0xf25/0x1b20 [nilfs2] nilfs_segctor_construct+0x17b/0x290 [nilfs2] nilfs_segctor_thread+0x122/0x3b0 [nilfs2] kthread+0xc0/0xd0 ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 These two issues have one reason. This reason can raise third issue too. Third issue results in hanging of segctor thread with eating of 100% CPU. REPRODUCING PATH: One of the possible way or the issue reproducing was described by Jermoe me Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>: 1. init S to get to single user mode. 2. sysrq+E to make sure only my shell is running 3. start network-manager to get my wifi connection up 4. login as root and launch "screen" 5. cd /boot/log/nilfs which is a ext3 mount point and can log when NILFS dies. 6. lscp | xz -9e > lscp.txt.xz 7. mount my snapshot using mount -o cp=3360839,ro /dev/vgUbuntu/root /mnt/nilfs 8. start a screen to dump /proc/kmsg to text file since rsyslog is killed 9. start a screen and launch strace -f -o find-cat.log -t find /mnt/nilfs -type f -exec cat {} > /dev/null \; 10. start a screen and launch strace -f -o apt-get.log -t apt-get update 11. launch the last command again as it did not crash the first time 12. apt-get crashes 13. ps aux > ps-aux-crashed.log 13. sysrq+W 14. sysrq+E wait for everything to terminate 15. sysrq+SUSB Simplified way of the issue reproducing is starting kernel compilation task and "apt-get update" in parallel. REPRODUCIBILITY: The issue is reproduced not stable [60% - 80%]. It is very important to have proper environment for the issue reproducing. The critical conditions for successful reproducing: (1) It should have big modified file by mmap() way. (2) This file should have the count of dirty blocks are greater that several segments in size (for example, two or three) from time to time during processing. (3) It should be intensive background activity of files modification in another thread. INVESTIGATION: First of all, it is possible to see that the reason of crash is not valid page address: NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2100 bh->b_count 0, bh->b_blocknr 13895680, bh->b_size 13897727, bh->b_page 0000000000001a82 NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2101 segbuf->sb_segnum 6783 Moreover, value of b_page (0x1a82) is 6786. This value looks like segment number. And b_blocknr with b_size values look like block numbers. So, buffer_head's pointer points on not proper address value. Detailed investigation of the issue is discovered such picture: [-----------------------------SEGMENT 6783-------------------------------] NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2310 nilfs_segctor_begin_construction NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2321 nilfs_segctor_collect NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2336 nilfs_segctor_assign NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2367 nilfs_segctor_update_segusage NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2371 nilfs_segctor_prepare_write NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2376 nilfs_add_checksums_on_logs NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2381 nilfs_segctor_write NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bio]:464 bio->bi_sector 111149024, segbuf->sb_segnum 6783 [-----------------------------SEGMENT 6784-------------------------------] NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2310 nilfs_segctor_begin_construction NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2321 nilfs_segctor_collect NILFS [nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers]:782 bh->b_count 1, bh->b_page ffffea000709b000, page->index 0, i_ino 1033103, i_size 25165824 NILFS [nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers]:783 bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff8802174a6798, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880221cffee8 NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2336 nilfs_segctor_assign NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2367 nilfs_segctor_update_segusage NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2371 nilfs_segctor_prepare_write NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2376 nilfs_add_checksums_on_logs NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2381 nilfs_segctor_write NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh]:575 bh->b_count 1, bh->b_page ffffea000709b000, page->index 0, i_ino 1033103, i_size 25165824 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh]:576 segbuf->sb_segnum 6784 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh]:577 bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880218bcdf50 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bio]:464 bio->bi_sector 111150080, segbuf->sb_segnum 6784, segbuf->sb_nbio 0 [----------] ditto NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bio]:464 bio->bi_sector 111164416, segbuf->sb_segnum 6784, segbuf->sb_nbio 15 [-----------------------------SEGMENT 6785-------------------------------] NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2310 nilfs_segctor_begin_construction NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2321 nilfs_segctor_collect NILFS [nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers]:782 bh->b_count 2, bh->b_page ffffea000709b000, page->index 0, i_ino 1033103, i_size 25165824 NILFS [nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers]:783 bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880219277e80, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880221cffc88 NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2367 nilfs_segctor_update_segusage NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2371 nilfs_segctor_prepare_write NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2376 nilfs_add_checksums_on_logs NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2381 nilfs_segctor_write NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh]:575 bh->b_count 2, bh->b_page ffffea000709b000, page->index 0, i_ino 1033103, i_size 25165824 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh]:576 segbuf->sb_segnum 6785 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh]:577 bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880222cc7ee8 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bio]:464 bio->bi_sector 111165440, segbuf->sb_segnum 6785, segbuf->sb_nbio 0 [----------] ditto NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_submit_bio]:464 bio->bi_sector 111177728, segbuf->sb_segnum 6785, segbuf->sb_nbio 12 NILFS [nilfs_segctor_do_construct]:2399 nilfs_segctor_wait NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_wait]:676 segbuf->sb_segnum 6783 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_wait]:676 segbuf->sb_segnum 6784 NILFS [nilfs_segbuf_wait]:676 segbuf->sb_segnum 6785 NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2100 bh->b_count 0, bh->b_blocknr 13895680, bh->b_size 13897727, bh->b_page 0000000000001a82 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000001a82 IP: [<ffffffffa024d0f2>] nilfs_end_page_io+0x12/0xd0 [nilfs2] Usually, for every segment we collect dirty files in list. Then, dirty blocks are gathered for every dirty file, prepared for write and submitted by means of nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh() call. Finally, it takes place complete write phase after calling nilfs_end_bio_write() on the block layer. Buffers/pages are marked as not dirty on final phase and processed files removed from the list of dirty files. It is possible to see that we had three prepare_write and submit_bio phases before segbuf_wait and complete_write phase. Moreover, segments compete between each other for dirty blocks because on every iteration of segments processing dirty buffer_heads are added in several lists of payload_buffers: [SEGMENT 6784]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880218bcdf50 [SEGMENT 6785]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880222cc7ee8 The next pointer is the same but prev pointer has changed. It means that buffer_head has next pointer from one list but prev pointer from another. Such modification can be made several times. And, finally, it can be resulted in various issues: (1) segctor hanging, (2) segctor crashing, (3) file system metadata corruption. FIX: This patch adds: (1) setting of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_prepare_write() for every proccessed dirty block; (2) checking of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() and nilfs_lookup_dirty_node_buffers(); (3) clearing of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_complete_write(), nilfs_abort_logs(), nilfs_forget_buffer(), nilfs_clear_dirty_page().

2013-08-29nilfs2: fix issue with counting number of bio requests for BIO_EOPNOTSUPP ↵Vyacheslav Dubeyko
error detection commit 4bf93b50fd04118ac7f33a3c2b8a0a1f9fa80bc9 upstream. Fix the issue with improper counting number of flying bio requests for BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection case. The sb_nbio must be incremented exactly the same number of times as complete() function was called (or will be called) because nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of times set to sb_nbio: do { wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event); } while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0); Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the same number of times for the same sb_bio_event. Otherwise, wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

2013-05-24nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty() for page at EOF boundaryRyusuke Konishi
nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty for page at EOF boundary DESCRIPTION: There are use-cases when NILFS2 file system (formatted with block size lesser than 4 KB) can be remounted in RO mode because of encountering of "broken bmap" issue. The issue was reported by Anthony Doggett <Anthony2486@interfaces.org.uk>: "The machine I've been trialling nilfs on is running Debian Testing, Linux version 3.2.0-4-686-pae (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14) ) #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2), but I've also reproduced it (identically) with Debian Unstable amd64 and Debian Experimental (using the 3.8-trunk kernel). The problematic partitions were formatted with "mkfs.nilfs2 -b 1024 -B 8192"." SYMPTOMS: (1) System log contains error messages likewise: [63102.496756] nilfs_direct_assign: invalid pointer: 0 [63102.496786] NILFS error (device dm-17): nilfs_bmap_assign: broken bmap (inode number=28) [63102.496798] [63102.524403] Remounting filesystem read-only (2) The NILFS2 file system is remounted in RO mode. REPRODUSING PATH: (1) Create volume group with name "unencrypted" by means of vgcreate utility. (2) Run script (prepared by Anthony Doggett <Anthony2486@interfaces.org.uk>): ----------------[BEGIN SCRIPT]-------------------- VG=unencrypted lvcreate --size 2G --name ntest $VG mkfs.nilfs2 -b 1024 -B 8192 /dev/mapper/$VG-ntest mkdir /var/tmp/n mkdir /var/tmp/n/ntest mount /dev/mapper/$VG-ntest /var/tmp/n/ntest mkdir /var/tmp/n/ntest/thedir cd /var/tmp/n/ntest/thedir sleep 2 date darcs init sleep 2 dmesg|tail -n 5 date darcs whatsnew || true date sleep 2 dmesg|tail -n 5 ----------------[END SCRIPT]-------------------- REPRODUCIBILITY: 100% INVESTIGATION: As it was discovered, the issue takes place during segment construction after executing such sequence of user-space operations: open("_darcs/index", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY, 0666) = 7 fstat(7, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 ftruncate(7, 60) The error message "NILFS error (device dm-17): nilfs_bmap_assign: broken bmap (inode number=28)" takes place because of trying to get block number for third block of the file with logical offset #3072 bytes. As it is possible to see from above output, the file has 60 bytes of the whole size. So, it is enough one block (1 KB in size) allocation for the whole file. Trying to operate with several blocks instead of one takes place because of discovering several dirty buffers for this file in nilfs_segctor_scan_file() method. The root cause of this issue is in nilfs_set_page_dirty function which is called just before writing to an mmapped page. When nilfs_page_mkwrite function handles a page at EOF boundary, it fills hole blocks only inside EOF through __block_page_mkwrite(). The __block_page_mkwrite() function calls set_page_dirty() after filling hole blocks, thus nilfs_set_page_dirty function (= a_ops->set_page_dirty) is called. However, the current implementation of nilfs_set_page_dirty() wrongly marks all buffers dirty even for page at EOF boundary. As a result, buffers outside EOF are inconsistently marked dirty and queued for write even though they are not mapped with nilfs_get_block function. FIX: This modifies nilfs_set_page_dirty() not to mark hole blocks dirty. Thanks to Vyacheslav Dubeyko for his effort on analysis and proposals for this issue.

2013-04-30nilfs2: fix issue with flush kernel thread after remount in RO mode because ↵Vyacheslav Dubeyko
of driver's internal error or metadata corruption The NILFS2 driver remounts itself in RO mode in the case of discovering metadata corruption (for example, discovering a broken bmap). But usually, this takes place when there have been file system operations before remounting in RO mode. Thereby, NILFS2 driver can be in RO mode with presence of dirty pages in modified inodes' address spaces. It results in flush kernel thread's infinite trying to flush dirty pages in RO mode. As a result, it is possible to see such side effects as: (1) flush kernel thread occupies 50% - 99% of CPU time; (2) system can't be shutdowned without manual power switch off. SYMPTOMS: (1) System log contains error message: "Remounting filesystem read-only". (2) The flush kernel thread occupies 50% - 99% of CPU time.

2013-03-03fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.Eric W. Biederman
Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

2013-02-21mm: only enforce stable page writes if the backing device requires itDarrick J. Wong
Create a helper function to check if a backing device requires stable page writes and, if so, performs the necessary wait. Then, make it so that all points in the memory manager that handle making pages writable use the helper function. This should provide stable page write support to most filesystems, while eliminating unnecessary waiting for devices that don't require the feature. Before this patchset, all filesystems would block, regardless of whether or not it was necessary. ext3 would wait, but still generate occasional checksum errors. The network filesystems were left to do their own thing, so they'd wait too. After this patchset, all the disk filesystems except ext3 and btrfs will wait only if the hardware requires it. ext3 (if necessary) snapshots pages instead of blocking, and btrfs provides its own bdi so the mm will never wait. Network filesystems haven't been touched, so either they provide their own stable page guarantees or they don't block at all. The blocking behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't have a disk requiring stable page writes. Here's the result of using dbench to test latency on ext2: 3.8.0-rc3: Operation Count AvgLat MaxLat ---------------------------------------- WriteX 109347 0.028 59.817 ReadX 347180 0.004 3.391 Flush 15514 29.828 287.283 Throughput 57.429 MB/sec 4 clients 4 procs max_latency=287.290 ms 3.8.0-rc3 + patches: WriteX 105556 0.029 4.273 ReadX 335004 0.005 4.112 Flush 14982 30.540 298.634 Throughput 55.4496 MB/sec 4 clients 4 procs max_latency=298.650 ms As you can see, the maximum write latency drops considerably with this patch enabled.

2013-02-05nilfs2: fix fix very long mount time issueVyacheslav Dubeyko
There exists a situation when GC can work in background alone without any other filesystem activity during significant time. The nilfs_clean_segments() method calls nilfs_segctor_construct() that updates superblocks in the case of NILFS_SC_SUPER_ROOT and THE_NILFS_DISCONTINUED flags are set. But when GC is working alone the nilfs_clean_segments() is called with unset THE_NILFS_DISCONTINUED flag. As a result, the update of superblocks doesn't occurred all this time and in the case of SPOR superblocks keep very old values of last super root placement. SYMPTOMS: Trying to mount a NILFS2 volume after SPOR in such environment ends with very long mounting time (it can achieve about several hours in some cases). REPRODUCING PATH: 1. It needs to use external USB HDD, disable automount and doesn't make any additional filesystem activity on the NILFS2 volume. 2. Generate temporary file with size about 100 - 500 GB (for example, dd if=/dev/zero of=<file_name> bs=1073741824 count=200). The size of file defines duration of GC working. 3. Then it needs to delete file. 4. Start GC manually by means of command "nilfs-clean -p 0". When you start GC by means of such way then, at the end, superblocks is updated by once. So, for simulation of SPOR, it needs to wait sometime (15 - 40 minutes) and simply switch off USB HDD manually. 5. Switch on USB HDD again and try to mount NILFS2 volume. As a result, NILFS2 volume will mount during very long time. REPRODUCIBILITY: 100% FIX: This patch adds checking that superblocks need to update and set THE_NILFS_DISCONTINUED flag before nilfs_clean_segments() call.

This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review. The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network. Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues. The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int. Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to handle those places with simple trivial patches. Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before. Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts for most of the code size growth in my git tree. Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications. While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty.

2012-09-30ext4: fix mtime update in nodelalloc modeTheodore Ts'o
Commits 5e8830dc85d0 and 41c4d25f78c0 introduced a regression into v3.6-rc1 for ext4 in nodealloc mode, such that mtime updates would not take place for files modified via mmap if the page was already in the page cache. This would also affect ext3 file systems mounted using the ext4 file system driver. The problem was that ext4_page_mkwrite() had a shortcut which would avoid calling __block_page_mkwrite() under some circumstances, and the above two commit transferred the responsibility of calling file_update_time() to __block_page_mkwrite --- which woudln't get called in some circumstances. Since __block_page_mkwrite() only has three callers, block_page_mkwrite(), ext4_page_mkwrite, and nilfs_page_mkwrite(), the best way to solve this is to move the responsibility for calling file_update_time() to its caller. This problem was found via xfstests #215 with a file system mounted with -o nodelalloc.

This deadlock is 100% reproducible. 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.

2012-07-30nilfs2: fix timing issue between rmcp and chcp ioctlsRyusuke Konishi
The checkpoint deletion ioctl (rmcp ioctl) has potential for breaking snapshot because it is not fully exclusive with checkpoint mode change ioctl (chcp ioctl). The rmcp ioctl first tests if the specified checkpoint is a snapshot or not within nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoint function, and then calls nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints function to actually invalidate the checkpoint only if it's not a snapshot. However, the checkpoint can be changed into a snapshot by the chcp ioctl between these two operations. In that case, calling nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints() wrongly invalidates the snapshot, which leads to snapshot list corruption and snapshot count mismatch. This fixes the issue by changing nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints() so that it reconfirms the target checkpoints are snapshot or not. This second check is exclusive with the chcp operation since it is protected by an existing semaphore.

2012-06-20nilfs2: ensure proper cache clearing for gc-inodesRyusuke Konishi
A gc-inode is a pseudo inode used to buffer the blocks to be moved by garbage collection. Block caches of gc-inodes must be cleared every time a garbage collection function (nilfs_clean_segments) completes. Otherwise, stale blocks buffered in the caches may be wrongly reused in successive calls of the GC function. For user files, this is not a problem because their gc-inodes are distinguished by a checkpoint number as well as an inode number. They never buffer different blocks if either an inode number, a checkpoint number, or a block offset differs. However, gc-inodes of sufile, cpfile and DAT file can store different data for the same block offset. Thus, the nilfs_clean_segments function can move incorrect block for these meta-data files if an old block is cached. I found this is really causing meta-data corruption in nilfs. This fixes the issue by ensuring cache clear of gc-inodes and resolves reported GC problems including checkpoint file corruption, b-tree corruption, and the following warning during GC. nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 307234 already freed. ...

2012-05-10vfs: make it possible to access the dentry hash/len as one 64-bit entryLinus Torvalds
This allows comparing hash and len in one operation on 64-bit architectures. Right now only __d_lookup_rcu() takes advantage of this, since that is the case we care most about. The use of anonymous struct/unions hides the alternate 64-bit approach from most users, the exception being a few cases where we initialize a 'struct qstr' with a static initializer. This makes the problematic cases use a new QSTR_INIT() helper function for that (but initializing just the name pointer with a "{ .name = xyzzy }" initializer remains valid, as does just copying another qstr structure).
