2011-11-21freezer: unexport refrigerator() and update try_to_freeze() slightlyTejun Heo
There is no reason to export two functions for entering the refrigerator. Calling refrigerator() instead of try_to_freeze() doesn't save anything noticeable or removes any race condition. * Rename refrigerator() to __refrigerator() and make it return bool indicating whether it scheduled out for freezing. * Update try_to_freeze() to return bool and relay the return value of __refrigerator() if freezing(). * Convert all refrigerator() users to try_to_freeze(). * Update documentation accordingly. * While at it, add might_sleep() to try_to_freeze().

2011-11-01jbd/jbd2: validate sb->s_first in journal_get_superblock()Eryu Guan
I hit a J_ASSERT(blocknr != 0) failure in cleanup_journal_tail() when mounting a fsfuzzed ext3 image. It turns out that the corrupted ext3 image has s_first = 0 in journal superblock, and the 0 is passed to journal->j_head in journal_reset(), then to blocknr in cleanup_journal_tail(), in the end the J_ASSERT failed. So validate s_first after reading journal superblock from disk in journal_get_superblock() to ensure s_first is valid. The following script could reproduce it: fstype=ext3 blocksize=1024 img=$fstype.img offset=0 found=0 magic="c0 3b 39 98" dd if=/dev/zero of=$img bs=1M count=8 mkfs -t $fstype -b $blocksize -F $img filesize=`stat -c %s $img` while [ $offset -lt $filesize ] do if od -j $offset -N 4 -t x1 $img | grep -i "$magic";then echo "Found journal: $offset" found=1 break fi offset=`echo "$offset+$blocksize" | bc` done if [ $found -ne 1 ];then echo "Magic \"$magic\" not found" exit 1 fi dd if=/dev/zero of=$img seek=$(($offset+23)) conv=notrunc bs=1 count=1 mkdir -p ./mnt mount -o loop $img ./mnt Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2011-06-13jbd2: Fix oops in jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head()Jan Kara
jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() can oops when trying to access journal_head returned by bh2jh(). This is caused for example by the following race: TASK1 TASK2 jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() ... processing t_forget list __jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(jh); if (!jh->b_transaction) { jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh); jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head(bh) jbd_lock_bh_state(bh) __journal_try_to_free_buffer() jbd2_journal_put_journal_head(jh) jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head(bh); jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() in TASK2 sees that b_jcount == 0 and buffer is not part of any transaction and thus frees journal_head before TASK1 gets to doing so. Note that even buffer_head can be released by try_to_free_buffers() after jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() which adds even larger opportunity for oops (but I didn't see this happen in reality). Fix the problem by making transactions hold their own journal_head reference (in b_jcount). That way we don't have to remove journal_head explicitely via jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() and instead just remove journal_head when b_jcount drops to zero. The result of this is that [__]jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(), [__]jbd2_journal_unfile_buffer(), and __jdb2_journal_remove_checkpoint() can free journal_head which needs modification of a few callers. Also we have to be careful because once journal_head is removed, buffer_head might be freed as well. So we have to get our own buffer_head reference where it matters.

2011-05-01jbd2: fix fsync() tid wraparound bugTheodore Ts'o
If an application program does not make any changes to the indirect blocks or extent tree, i_datasync_tid will not get updated. If there are enough commits (i.e., 2**31) such that tid_geq()'s calculations wrap, and there isn't a currently active transaction at the time of the fdatasync() call, this can end up triggering a BUG_ON in fs/jbd2/commit.c: J_ASSERT(journal->j_running_transaction != NULL); It's pretty rare that this can happen, since it requires the use of fdatasync() plus *very* frequent and excessive use of fsync(). But with the right workload, it can. We fix this by replacing the use of tid_geq() with an equality test, since there's only one valid transaction id that we is valid for us to wait until it is commited: namely, the currently running transaction (if it exists).

2011-02-12jbd2: call __jbd2_log_start_commit with j_state_lock write lockedTheodore Ts'o
On an SMP ARM system running ext4, I've received a report that the first J_ASSERT in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction has been triggering: J_ASSERT(journal->j_running_transaction != NULL); While investigating possible causes for this problem, I noticed that __jbd2_log_start_commit() is getting called with j_state_lock only read-locked, in spite of the fact that it's possible for it might j_commit_request. Fix this by grabbing the necessary information so we can test to see if we need to start a new transaction before dropping the read lock, and then calling jbd2_log_start_commit() which will grab the write lock.

2010-10-27jbd2: Fix I/O hang in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inodeBrian King
This fixes a hang seen in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode on a lot of Power 6 systems running with ext4. When we get in the hung state, all I/O to the disk in question gets blocked where we stay indefinitely. Looking at the task list, I can see we are stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode waiting on a wake up. I added some debug code to detect this scenario and dump additional data if we were stuck in jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode for longer than 30 minutes. When it hit, I was able to see that i_flags was 0, suggesting we missed the wake up. This patch changes i_flags to be an unsigned long, uses bit operators to access it, and adds barriers around the accesses. Prior to applying this patch, we were regularly hitting this hang on numerous systems in our test environment. After applying the patch, the hangs no longer occur.

2010-09-10JBD2: Allow feature checks before journal recoveryPatrick J. LoPresti
Before we start accessing a huge (> 16 TiB) OCFS2 volume, we need to confirm that its journal supports 64-bit offsets. In particular, we need to check the journal's feature bits before recovering the journal. This is not possible with JBD2 at present, because the journal superblock (where the feature bits reside) is not loaded from disk until the journal is recovered. This patch loads the journal superblock in jbd2_journal_check_used_features() if it has not already been loaded, allowing us to check the feature bits before journal recovery.

2010-07-15jbd2/ocfs2: Fix block checksumming when a buffer is used in several transactionsJan Kara
OCFS2 uses t_commit trigger to compute and store checksum of the just committed blocks. When a buffer has b_frozen_data, checksum is computed for it instead of b_data but this can result in an old checksum being written to the filesystem in the following scenario: 1) transaction1 is opened 2) handle1 is opened 3) journal_access(handle1, bh) - This sets jh->b_transaction to transaction1 4) modify(bh) 5) journal_dirty(handle1, bh) 6) handle1 is closed 7) start committing transaction1, opening transaction2 8) handle2 is opened 9) journal_access(handle2, bh) - This copies off b_frozen_data to make it safe for transaction1 to commit. jh->b_next_transaction is set to transaction2. 10) jbd2_journal_write_metadata() checksums b_frozen_data 11) the journal correctly writes b_frozen_data to the disk journal 12) handle2 is closed - There was no dirty call for the bh on handle2, so it is never queued for any more journal operation 13) Checkpointing finally happens, and it just spools the bh via normal buffer writeback. This will write b_data, which was never triggered on and thus contains a wrong (old) checksum. This patch fixes the problem by calling the trigger at the moment data is frozen for journal commit - i.e., either when b_frozen_data is created by do_get_write_access or just before we write a buffer to the log if b_frozen_data does not exist. We also rename the trigger to t_frozen as that better describes when it is called.

If there is a failed journal checksum, don't reset the journal. This allows for userspace programs to decide how to recover from this situation. It may be that ignoring the journal checksum failure might be a better way of recovering the file system. Once we add per-block checksums, we can definitely do better. Until then, a system administrator can try backing up the file system image (or taking a snapshot) and and trying to determine experimentally whether ignoring the checksum failure or aborting the journal replay results in less data loss.

This resulted in ext4_sync_fs() not functioning correctly (description from Arthur Jones): In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long symlinks which are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing block device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits, seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new or previously freed block data to userspace. This can be reproduced with a script created by Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>: #!/bin/bash umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 rm -f /mnt/test2/* dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test2/bigfile bs=1M count=512 touch /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename ln -s /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename /mnt/test2/link umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 ls /mnt/test2/ This patch fixes jbd2_journal_start_commit() to always return 1 when there's a transaction committing or queued for commit.

2009-01-11ext4: fix wrong use of do_divSimon Holm Thøgersen
the following warning: fs/jbd2/journal.c: In function ‘jbd2_seq_info_show’: fs/jbd2/journal.c:850: warning: format ‘%lu’ expects type ‘long unsigned int’, but argument 3 has type ‘uint32_t’ is caused by wrong usage of do_div that modifies the dividend in-place and returns the quotient. So not only would an incorrect value be displayed, but s->journal->j_average_commit_time would also be changed to a wrong value! Fix it by using div_u64 instead.
