2011-12-06fix apparmor dereferencing potentially freed dentry, sanitize __d_path() APIAl Viro
__d_path() API is asking for trouble and in case of apparmor d_namespace_path() getting just that. The root cause is that when __d_path() misses the root it had been told to look for, it stores the location of the most remote ancestor in *root. Without grabbing references. Sure, at the moment of call it had been pinned down by what we have in *path. And if we raced with umount -l, we could have very well stopped at vfsmount/dentry that got freed as soon as prepend_path() dropped vfsmount_lock. It is safe to compare these pointers with pre-existing (and known to be still alive) vfsmount and dentry, as long as all we are asking is "is it the same address?". Dereferencing is not safe and apparmor ended up stepping into that. d_namespace_path() really wants to examine the place where we stopped, even if it's not connected to our namespace. As the result, it looked at ->d_sb->s_magic of a dentry that might've been already freed by that point. All other callers had been careful enough to avoid that, but it's really a bad interface - it invites that kind of trouble. The fix is fairly straightforward, even though it's bigger than I'd like: * prepend_path() root argument becomes const. * __d_path() is never called with NULL/NULL root. It was a kludge to start with. Instead, we have an explicit function - d_absolute_root(). Same as __d_path(), except that it doesn't get root passed and stops where it stops. apparmor and tomoyo are using it. * __d_path() returns NULL on path outside of root. The main caller is show_mountinfo() and that's precisely what we pass root for - to skip those outside chroot jail. Those who don't want that can (and do) use d_path(). * __d_path() root argument becomes const. Everyone agrees, I hope. * apparmor does *NOT* try to use __d_path() or any of its variants when it sees that path->mnt is an internal vfsmount. In that case it's definitely not mounted anywhere and dentry_path() is exactly what we want there. Handling of sysctl()-triggered weirdness is moved to that place. * if apparmor is asked to do pathname relative to chroot jail and __d_path() tells it we it's not in that jail, the sucker just calls d_absolute_path() instead. That's the other remaining caller of __d_path(), BTW. * seq_path_root() does _NOT_ return -ENAMETOOLONG (it's stupid anyway - the normal seq_file logics will take care of growing the buffer and redoing the call of ->show() just fine). However, if it gets path not reachable from root, it returns SEQ_SKIP. The only caller adjusted (i.e. stopped ignoring the return value as it used to do).

2011-12-06xfs: fix the logspace waiting algorithmChristoph Hellwig
Apply the scheme used in log_regrant_write_log_space to wake up any other threads waiting for log space before the newly added one to log_regrant_write_log_space as well, and factor the code into readable helpers. For each of the queues we have add two helpers: - one to try to wake up all waiting threads. This helper will also be usable by xfs_log_move_tail once we remove the current opportunistic wakeups in it. - one to sleep on t_wait until enough log space is available, loosely modelled after Linux waitqueues. And use them to reimplement the guts of log_regrant_write_log_space and log_regrant_write_log_space. These two function now use one and the same algorithm for waiting on log space instead of subtly different ones before, with an option to completely unify them in the near future. Also move the filesystem shutdown handling to the common caller given that we had to touch it anyway. Based on hard debugging and an earlier patch from Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com>.

2011-12-02xfs: fix allocation length overflow in xfs_bmapi_write()Dave Chinner
When testing the new xfstests --large-fs option that does very large file preallocations, this assert was tripped deep in xfs_alloc_vextent(): XFS: Assertion failed: args->minlen <= args->maxlen, file: fs/xfs/xfs_alloc.c, line: 2239 The allocation was trying to allocate a zero length extent because the lower 32 bits of the allocation length was zero. The remaining length of the allocation to be done was an exact multiple of 2^32 - the first case I saw was at 496TB remaining to be allocated. This turns out to be an overflow when converting the allocation length (a 64 bit quantity) into the extent length to allocate (a 32 bit quantity), and it requires the length to be allocated an exact multiple of 2^32 blocks to trip the assert. Fix it by limiting the extent lenth to allocate to MAXEXTLEN. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Myers <bpm@sgi.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

2011-12-01ocfs2: avoid unaligned access to dqc_bitmapAkinobu Mita
The dqc_bitmap field of struct ocfs2_local_disk_chunk is 32-bit aligned, but not 64-bit aligned. The dqc_bitmap is accessed by ocfs2_set_bit(), ocfs2_clear_bit(), ocfs2_test_bit(), or ocfs2_find_next_zero_bit(). These are wrapper macros for ext2_*_bit() which need to take an unsigned long aligned address (though some architectures are able to handle unaligned address correctly) So some 64bit architectures may not be able to access the dqc_bitmap correctly. This avoids such unaligned access by using another wrapper functions for ext2_*_bit(). The code is taken from fs/ext4/mballoc.c which also need to handle unaligned bitmap access.

2011-12-01Btrfs: fix meta data raid-repair merge problemJan Schmidt
Commit 4a54c8c16 introduced raid-repair, killing the individual readpage_io_failed_hook entries from inode.c and disk-io.c. Commit 4bb31e92 introduced new readahead code, adding a readpage_io_failed_hook to disk-io.c. The raid-repair commit had logic to disable raid-repair, if readpage_io_failed_hook is set. Thus, the readahead commit effectively disabled raid-repair for meta data. This commit changes the logic to always attempt raid-repair when needed and call the readpage_io_failed_hook in case raid-repair fails. This is much more straight forward and should have been like that from the beginning.

The field that indicates the size of the largest contiguous chunk of free space in the cluster is not initialized when setting up bitmaps, it's only increased when we find a larger contiguous chunk. We end up retaining a larger value than appropriate for highly-fragmented clusters, which may cause pointless searches for large contiguous groups, and even cause clusters that do not meet the density requirements to be set up.

2011-11-30Btrfs: initialize new bitmaps' listAlexandre Oliva
We're failing to create clusters with bitmaps because setup_cluster_no_bitmap checks that the list is empty before inserting the bitmap entry in the list for setup_cluster_bitmap, but the list field is only initialized when it is restored from the on-disk free space cache, or when it is written out to disk. Besides a potential race condition due to the multiple use of the list field, filesystem performance severely degrades over time: as we use up all non-bitmap free extents, the try-to-set-up-cluster dance is done at every metadata block allocation. For every block group, we fail to set up a cluster, and after failing on them all up to twice, we fall back to the much slower unclustered allocation. To make matters worse, before the unclustered allocation, we try to create new block groups until we reach the 1% threshold, which introduces additional bitmaps and thus block groups that we'll iterate over at each metadata block request.

2011-11-29xfs: fix attr2 vs large data fork assertChristoph Hellwig
With Dmitry fsstress updates I've seen very reproducible crashes in xfs_attr_shortform_remove because xfs_attr_shortform_bytesfit claims that the attributes would not fit inline into the inode after removing an attribute. It turns out that we were operating on an inode with lots of delalloc extents, and thus an if_bytes values for the data fork that is larger than biggest possible on-disk storage for it which utterly confuses the code near the end of xfs_attr_shortform_bytesfit. Fix this by always allowing the current attribute fork, like we already do for the attr1 format, given that delalloc conversion will take care for moving either the data or attribute area out of line if it doesn't fit at that point - or making the point moot by merging extents at this point.

If we are doing synchronous inode reclaim we block the VM from making progress in memory reclaim. So if we encouter a flush locked inode promote it in the delwri list and wake up xfsbufd to write it out now. Without this we can get hangs of up to 30 seconds during workloads hitting synchronous inode reclaim. The scheme is copied from what we do for dquot reclaims.

As requested by NamJae Jeon, this patch (as1503) changes the name of the "maxlen" parameters to "maxout" in the various UTF conversion routines. This should make the role of that parameter more clear. The patch also renames the "len" parameters to "inlen", for the same reason.

2011-11-24ext4: fix racy use-after-free in ext4_end_io_dio()Tejun Heo
ext4_end_io_dio() queues io_end->work and then clears iocb->private; however, io_end->work calls aio_complete() which frees the iocb object. If that slab object gets reallocated, then ext4_end_io_dio() can end up clearing someone else's iocb->private, this use-after-free can cause a leak of a struct ext4_io_end_t structure. Detected and tested with slab poisoning.

2011-11-23eCryptfs: Extend array bounds for all filename charsTyler Hicks
From mhalcrow's original commit message: Characters with ASCII values greater than the size of filename_rev_map[] are valid filename characters. ecryptfs_decode_from_filename() will access kernel memory beyond that array, and ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet() will then decrypt those characters. The attacker, using the FNEK of the crafted file, can then re-encrypt the characters to reveal the kernel memory past the end of the filename_rev_map[] array. I expect low security impact since this array is statically allocated in the text area, and the amount of memory past the array that is accessible is limited by the largest possible ASCII filename character. This patch solves the issue reported by mhalcrow but with an implementation suggested by Linus to simply extend the length of filename_rev_map[] to 256. Characters greater than 0x7A are mapped to 0x00, which is how invalid characters less than 0x7A were previously being handled.

2011-11-23eCryptfs: Flush file in vma closeTyler Hicks
Dirty pages weren't being written back when an mmap'ed eCryptfs file was closed before the mapping was unmapped. Since f_ops->flush() is not called by the munmap() path, the lower file was simply being released. This patch flushes the eCryptfs file in the vm_ops->close() path. https://launchpad.net/bugs/870326 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org [2.6.39+]
2011-11-23eCryptfs: Prevent file create race conditionTyler Hicks
The file creation path prematurely called d_instantiate() and unlock_new_inode() before the eCryptfs inode info was fully allocated and initialized and before the eCryptfs metadata was written to the lower file. This could result in race conditions in subsequent file and inode operations leading to unexpected error conditions or a null pointer dereference while attempting to use the unallocated memory. https://launchpad.net/bugs/813146 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org
