2009-09-17ext4: Fix the alloc on close after a truncate hueristicTheodore Ts'o
In an attempt to avoid doing an unneeded flush after opening a (previously non-existent) file with O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, the code only triggered the hueristic if ei->disksize was non-zero. Turns out that the VFS doesn't call ->truncate() if the file doesn't exist, and ei->disksize is always zero even if the file previously existed. So remove the test, since it isn't necessary and in fact disabled the hueristic. Thanks to Clemens Eisserer that he was seeing problems with files written using kwrite and eclipse after sudden crashes caused by a buggy Intel video driver.

EXT4_EXT_MIGRATE is only intended to be used for an in-memory flag, and the hex value assigned to it collides with FS_DIRECTIO_FL (which is also stored in i_flags).

2009-09-16ext4: limit block allocations for indirect-block files to < 2^32Eric Sandeen
Today, the ext4 allocator will happily allocate blocks past 2^32 for indirect-block files, which results in the block numbers getting truncated, and corruption ensues. This patch limits such allocations to < 2^32, and adds BUG_ONs if we do get blocks larger than that. This should address RH Bug 519471, ext4 bitmap allocator must limit blocks to < 2^32 * ext4_find_goal() is modified to choose a goal < UINT_MAX, so that our starting point is in an acceptable range. * ext4_xattr_block_set() is modified such that the goal block is < UINT_MAX, as above. * ext4_mb_regular_allocator() is modified so that the group search does not continue into groups which are too high * ext4_mb_use_preallocated() has a check that we don't use preallocated space which is too far out * ext4_alloc_blocks() and ext4_xattr_block_set() add some BUG_ONs No attempt has been made to limit inode locations to < 2^32, so we may wind up with blocks far from their inodes. Doing this much already will lead to some odd ENOSPC issues when the "lower 32" gets full, and further restricting inodes could make that even weirder. For high inodes, choosing a goal of the original, % UINT_MAX, may be a bit odd, but then we're in an odd situation anyway, and I don't know of a better heuristic.

2009-09-16ext4: Fix different block exchange issue in EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXTAkira Fujita
If logical block offset of original file which is passed to EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT is different from donor file's, a calculation error occurs in ext4_calc_swap_extents(), therefore wrong block is exchanged between original file and donor file. As a result, we hit ext4_error() in check_block_validity(). To detect the logical offset difference in EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, add checks to mext_calc_swap_extents() and handle it as error, since data exchange must be done between the same blocks in EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT.

There is the possibility that path structure which is taken by ext4_ext_find_extent() indicates null extents.

2009-09-16HWPOISON: Enable .remove_error_page for migration aware file systemsAndi Kleen
Enable removing of corrupted pages through truncation for a bunch of file systems: ext*, xfs, gfs2, ocfs2, ntfs These should cover most server needs. I chose the set of migration aware file systems for this for now, assuming they have been especially audited. But in general it should be safe for all file systems on the data area that support read/write and truncate. Caveat: the hardware error handler does not take i_mutex for now before calling the truncate function. Is that ok?

2009-09-14ext4: Fix include/trace/events/ext4.h to work with SystemtapTheodore Ts'o
Using relative pathnames in #include statements interacts badly with SystemTap, since the fs/ext4/*.h header files are not packaged up as part of a distribution kernel's header files. Since systemtap doesn't use TP_fast_assign(), we can use a blind structure definition and then make sure the needed header files are defined before the ext4 source files #include the trace/events/ext4.h header file. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512478 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

By using atomic_set, the value of the s_flex_groups array was set to the values of the last block group in the flex_bg. The impact of this bug is that the block and inode allocation algorithms might not pick the best flex_bg for new allocation. Thanks to Damien Guibouret for pointing out this problem!

2009-09-09ext4: Make non-journal fsync work properlyFrank Mayhar
Teach ext4_write_inode() and ext4_do_update_inode() about non-journal mode: If we're not using a journal, ext4_write_inode() now calls ext4_do_update_inode() (after getting the iloc via ext4_get_inode_loc()) with a new "do_sync" parameter. If that parameter is nonzero _and_ we're not using a journal, ext4_do_update_inode() calls sync_dirty_buffer() instead of ext4_handle_dirty_metadata(). This problem was found in power-fail testing, checking the amount of loss of files and blocks after a power failure when using fsync() and when not using fsync(). It turned out that using fsync() was actually worse than not doing so, possibly because it increased the likelihood that the inodes would remain unflushed and would therefore be lost at the power failure.

2009-09-12ext4: Assure that metadata blocks are written during fsync in no journal modeTheodore Ts'o
When there is no journal present, we must attach buffer heads associated with extent tree and indirect blocks to the inode's mapping->private_list via mark_buffer_dirty_inode() so that ext4_sync_file() --- which is called to service fsync() and fdatasync() system calls --- can write out the inode's metadata blocks by calling sync_mapping_buffers().

2009-09-09ext4: Use bforget() in no journal mode for ext4_journal_{forget,revoke}()Theodore Ts'o
When ext4 is using a journal, a metadata block which is deallocated must be passed into the journal layer so it can be dropped from the current transaction and/or revoked. This is done by calling the functions ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke(), which call jbd2_journal_forget(), and jbd2_journal_revoke(), respectively. Since the jbd2_journal_forget() and jbd2_journal_revoke() call bforget(), if ext4 is not using a journal, ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke() must call bforget() to avoid a dirty metadata block overwriting a block after it has been reallocated and reused for another inode's data block.

2009-09-05ext4: Remove unneeded BUG_ON() in ext4_move_extents()Akira Fujita
The ext4_move_extents() functions checks with BUG_ON() whether the exchanged blocks count accords with request blocks count. But, if the target range (orig_start + len) includes sparse block(s), 'moved_len' (exchanged blocks count) does not agree with 'len' (request blocks count), since sparse block is not counted in 'moved_len'.

2009-09-16ext4: Fix wrong comparisons in mext_check_arguments()Akira Fujita
The mext_check_arguments() function in move_extents.c has wrong comparisons. orig_start which is passed from user-space is block unit, but i_size of inode is byte unit, therefore the checks do not work fine. This mis-check leads to the overflow of 'len' and then hits BUG_ON() in ext4_move_extents(). The patch fixes this issue.

To solve a lock inversion problem, we implement part of the range_cyclic algorithm in ext4_da_writepages(). (See commit 2acf2c26 for more details.) As part of that change wbc->range_start was modified by ext4's writepages function, which causes its callers to get confused since they aren't expecting the filesystem to modify it.

A user reported that although his root ext4 filesystem was mounting fine, other filesystems would not mount, with the: "Filesystem with huge files cannot be mounted RDWR without CONFIG_LBDAF" error on his 32-bit box built without CONFIG_LBDAF. This is because the test at mount time for this situation was not being re-checked on remount, and the normal boot process makes an ro->rw transition, so this was being missed.

2009-08-17ext4: reject too-large filesystems on 32-bit kernelsEric Sandeen
ext4 will happily mount a > 16T filesystem on a 32-bit box, but this is not safe; writes to the block device will wrap past 16T and the page cache can't index past 16T (232 index * 4k pages). Adding another test to the existing "too many sectors" test should do the trick. Add a comment, a relevant return value, and fix the reference to the CONFIG_LBD(AF) option as well.

2009-08-17ext4: Fix possible deadlock between ext4_truncate() and ext4_get_blocks()Jan Kara
During truncate we are sometimes forced to start a new transaction as the amount of blocks to be journaled is both quite large and hard to predict. So far we restarted a transaction while holding i_data_sem and that violates lock ordering because i_data_sem ranks below a transaction start (and it can lead to a real deadlock with ext4_get_blocks() mapping blocks in some page while having a transaction open). We fix the problem by dropping the i_data_sem before restarting the transaction and acquire it afterwards. It's slightly subtle that this works: 1) By the time ext4_truncate() is called, all the page cache for the truncated part of the file is dropped so get_block() should not be called on it (we only have to invalidate extent cache after we reacquire i_data_sem because some extent from not-truncated part could extend also into the part we are going to truncate). 2) Writes, migrate or defrag hold i_mutex so they are stopped for all the time of the truncate. This bug has been found and analyzed by Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
2009-09-18ext4: Show unwritten extent flag in ext4_ext_show_leaf()Mingming
ext4_ext_show_leaf() will display the leaf extents when extent debugging is enabled. Printing out the unwritten bit is useful for debugging unwritten extent, allow us to see the unwritten extents vs written extents, after the unwritten extents are splitted or converted.
