2007-03-07[GFS2] Fix bz 230143, incorrect flushing of rgrpsSteven Whitehouse
The below patch fixes a problem where we were not flushing rgrps correctly. It only occurred in the specific case that a callback was received for an rgrp which was dirty and when a journal log flush had not already resulted in the rgrp being flushed anyway.

2007-03-07[GFS2] fix hangup when multiple processes are trying to write to the same fileJosef Whiter
This fixes a problem I encountered while running bonnie++. When you have one thread that opens a file and starts to write to it, and then another thread that tries to open and write to the same file, the second thread will loop forever trying to grab the inode lock for that inode. Basically we come in through generic_buffered_file_write, which calls gfs2_prepare_write, which then attempts to grab the glock. Because we don't own the lock, gfs2_prepare_write gets GLR_TRYFAILED, which returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE to generic_buffered_file_write. At this point generic_buffered_file_write loops around again and immediately retries the prepare_write. This means that the second process never gets off of the processor in order to allow the process that holds the lock to finish its work and let go of the lock. This patch makes gfs2_glock_nq schedule() if it gets back a GLR_TRYFAILED, which resolves this problem.

2007-03-01[PATCH] ext[34]: EA block reference count racing fixMingming Cao
There are race issues around ext[34] xattr block release code. ext[34]_xattr_release_block() checks the reference count of xattr block (h_refcount) and frees that xattr block if it is the last one reference it. Unlike ext2, the check of this counter is unprotected by any lock. ext[34]_xattr_release_block() will free the mb_cache entry before freeing that xattr block. There is a small window between the check for the re h_refcount ==1 and the call to mb_cache_entry_free(). During this small window another inode might find this xattr block from the mbcache and reuse it, racing a refcount updates. The xattr block will later be freed by the first inode without notice other inode is still use it. Later if that block is reallocated as a datablock for other file, then more serious problem might happen. We need put a lock around places checking the refount as well to avoid racing issue. Another place need this kind of protection is in ext3_xattr_block_set(), where it will modify the xattr block content in- the-fly if the refcount is 1 (means it's the only inode reference it). This will also fix another issue: the xattr block may not get freed at all if no lock is to protect the refcount check at the release time. It is possible that the last two inodes could release the shared xattr block at the same time. But both of them think they are not the last one so only decreased the h_refcount without freeing xattr block at all. We need to call lock_buffer() after ext3_journal_get_write_access() to avoid deadlock (because the later will call lock_buffer()/unlock_buffer () as well).

This problem was identified and fixed some time ago by Jeff Moyer but it fell through the cracks somehow. It is possible that a user space application could remove and re-create a directory during a request. To avoid returning a failure from lookup incorrectly when our current dentry is unhashed we need to check if another positive, hashed dentry matching this one exists and if so return it instead of a fail.

2007-02-20[PATCH] autofs4: fix another race between mount and expireIan Kent
Jeff Moyer has identified a race between mount and expire. What happens is that during an expire the situation can arise that a directory is removed and another lookup is done before the expire issues a completion status to the kernel module. In this case, since the the lookup gets a new dentry, it doesn't know that there is an expire in progress and when it posts its mount request, matches the existing expire request and waits for its completion. ENOENT is then returned to user space from lookup (as the dentry passed in is now unhashed) without having performed the mount request. The solution used here is to keep track of dentrys in this unhashed state and reuse them, if possible, in order to preserve the flags. Additionally, this infrastructure will provide the framework for the reintroduction of caching of mount fails removed earlier in development.

Again, this could break weird use-cases, but none appear to exist in the tree. We can safely remove the set_page_dirty, because as the comment says, nobh_commit_write does set_page_dirty.

2007-02-20[PATCH] fs: fix libfs data leakNick Piggin
simple_prepare_write leaks uninitialised kernel data. This happens because the it leaves an uninitialised "hole" over the part of the page that the write is expected to go to. This is fine, but it then marks the page uptodate, which means a concurrent read can come in and copy the uninitialised memory into userspace before it written to. Fix it by simply marking it uptodate in simple_commit_write instead, after the hole has been filled in. This could theoretically break an fs that uses simple_prepare_write and not simple_commit_write, and that relies on the incorrect simple_prepare_write behaviour. Luckily, none of those exists in the tree.
