The function ecryptfs_uid_hash wrongly assumes that the
second parameter to hash_long() is the number of hash
buckets instead of the number of hash bits.
This patch fixes that and renames the variable
ecryptfs_hash_buckets to ecryptfs_hash_bits to make it
clearer.
Typo in down_spin() meant it only read the low 32 bits of the
"serve" value, instead of the full 64 bits. This results in the
system hanging when the values in ticket/serve get larger than
32-bits. A big enough system running the right test can hit this
in a just a few hours.
Before we mark the wireless device as unplugged, check PCI config space
to see whether the wireless device is really disabled (and vice versa).
This works around newer models which don't want the hotplug code, where
we end up disabling the wired network device.
My old 701 still works correctly with this. I can also simulate an
afflicted model by changing the hardcoded PCI bus/slot number in the
driver, and it seems to work nicely (although it is a bit noisy).
In future this type of hotplug support will be implemented by the PCI
core. The existing blacklist and the new warning message will be
removed at that point.

The flow id (scd_flow) in a compressed BA packet should match the txq_id
of the queue from which the aggregated packets were sent. However, in
some hardware like the 1000 series, sometimes the flow id is 0 for the
txq_id (10 to 19). This can cause the annoying message:
[ 2213.306191] iwlagn 0000:01:00.0: Received BA when not expected

index 5, is out of range [0-256] 7 7.
And even worse, if agg->wait_for_ba is true when the bad BA is arriving,
this can cause system hang due to NULL pointer dereference because the
code is operating in a wrong tx queue!

In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register
are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases,
this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero
exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to
restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In
this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would
cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution
is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of
the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware
that the code is emulating.
This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes
to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words:
I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The
Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the
CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that
actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would
work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of
the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic
(which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't
necessarily writable.

IR support on FusionHDTV cards is broken since kernel 2.6.31. One side
effect of the switch to the standard binding model for IR I2C devices
was to let i2c-core do the probing instead of the ir-kbd-i2c driver.
There is a slight difference between the two probe methods: i2c-core
uses 0-byte writes, while the ir-kbd-i2c was using 0-byte reads. As
some IR I2C devices only support reads, the new probe method fails to
detect them.
For now, revert to letting the driver do the probe, using 0-byte
reads. In the future, i2c-core will be extended to let callers of
i2c_new_probed_device() provide a custom probing function.

futex_find_get_task is currently used (through lookup_pi_state) from two
contexts, futex_requeue and futex_lock_pi_atomic. None of the paths
looks it needs the credentials check, though. Different (e)uids
shouldn't matter at all because the only thing that is important for
shared futex is the accessibility of the shared memory.
The credentail check results in glibc assert failure or process hang (if
glibc is compiled without assert support) for shared robust pthread
mutex with priority inheritance if a process tries to lock already held
lock owned by a process with a different euid:
The problem is that futex_lock_pi_atomic which is called when we try to
lock already held lock checks the current holder (tid is stored in the
futex value) to get the PI state. It uses lookup_pi_state which in turn
gets task struct from futex_find_get_task. ESRCH is returned either
when the task is not found or if credentials check fails.
futex_lock_pi_atomic simply returns if it gets ESRCH. glibc code,
however, doesn't expect that robust lock returns with ESRCH because it
should get either success or owner died.

Dimitry Monakhov discovered an edge case where it was possible for the
EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag could get cleared unnecessarily. This is true;
I have a test case that can be exercised via downloading and
decompressing the file:
However, triggering it in real life is highly unlikely since it
requires an extremely fragmented sparse file with a hole in exactly
the right place in the extent tree. (It actually took quite a bit of
work to generate this test case.) Still, it's nice to get even
extreme corner cases to be correct, so this patch makes sure that we
don't clear the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL incorrectly even in this corner
case.
If the EOFBLOCK_FL flag is set when it should not be and the inode is
zero length, then eh_entries is zero, and ex is NULL, so dereferencing
ex to print ex->ee_block causes a kernel OOPS in
ext4_ext_map_blocks().
On top of that, the error message which is printed isn't very helpful.
So we fix this by printing something more explanatory which doesn't
involve trying to print ex->ee_block.
At several places we modify EXT4_I(inode)->i_flags without holding
i_mutex (ext4_do_update_inode, ...). These modifications are racy and
we can lose updates to i_flags. So convert handling of i_flags to use
bitops which are atomic.
This adds a new field in ext4_group_info to cache the largest available
block range in a block group; and don't load the buddy pages until *after*
we've done a sanity check on the block group.
With large allocation requests (e.g., fallocate(), 8MiB) and relatively full
partitions, it's easy to have no block groups with a block extent large
enough to satisfy the input request length. This currently causes the loop
during cr == 0 in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() to load the buddy bitmap pages
for EVERY block group. That can be a lot of pages. The patch below allows
us to call ext4_mb_good_group() BEFORE we load the buddy pages (although we
have check again after we lock the block group).
Currently block/inode/dir counters initialized before journal was
recovered. In fact after journal recovery this info will probably
change. And freeblocks it critical for correct delalloc mode
accounting.

Note: this commit has been observed to fix fs corruption problems
under heavy fs load
The extents code will sometimes zero out blocks and mark them as
initialized instead of splitting an extent into several smaller ones.
This optimization however, causes problems if the extent is beyond
i_size because fsck will complain if there are uninitialized blocks
after i_size as this can not be distinguished from an inode that has
an incorrect i_size field.
There was a bug reported on RHEL5 that a 10G dd on a 12G box
had a very, very slow sync after that.
At issue was the loop in write_cache_pages scanning all the way
to the end of the 10G file, even though the subsequent call
to mpage_da_submit_io would only actually write a smallish amt; then
we went back to the write_cache_pages loop ... wasting tons of time
in calling __mpage_da_writepage for thousands of pages we would
just revisit (many times) later.
Upstream it's not such a big issue for sys_sync because we get
to the loop with a much smaller nr_to_write, which limits the loop.
However, talking with Aneesh he realized that fsync upstream still
gets here with a very large nr_to_write and we face the same problem.
This patch makes mpage_add_bh_to_extent stop the loop after we've
accumulated 2048 pages, by setting mpd->io_done = 1; which ultimately
causes the write_cache_pages loop to break.
Repeating the test with a dirty_ratio of 80 (to leave something for
fsync to do), I don't see huge IO performance gains, but the reduction
in cpu usage is striking: 80% usage with stock, and 2% with the
below patch. Instrumenting the loop in write_cache_pages clearly
shows that we are wasting time here.
Eventually we need to change mpage_da_map_pages() also submit its I/O
to the block layer, subsuming mpage_da_submit_io(), and then change it
call ext4_get_blocks() multiple times.
Turn off issuance of discard requests if the device does
not support it - similar to the action we take for barriers.
This will save a little computation time if a non-discardable
device is mounted with -o discard, and also makes it obvious
that it's not doing what was asked at mount time ...

Calls to ext4_get_inode_loc() returns with a reference to a buffer
head in iloc->bh. The callers of this function in ext4_write_inode()
when in no journal mode and in ext4_xattr_fiemap() don't release the
buffer head after using it.
In the no-journal case, ext4_write_inode() will fetch the bh and call
sync_dirty_buffer() on it. However, if the bh has already been
written and the bh reclaimed for some other purpose, AND if the inode
is the only one in the inode table block in use, then
ext4_get_inode_loc() will not read the inode table block from disk,
but as an optimization, fill the block with zero's assuming that its
caller will copy in the on-disk version of the inode. This is not
done by ext4_write_inode(), so the contents of the inode can simply
get lost. The fix is to use __ext4_get_inode_loc() with in_mem set to
0, instead of ext4_get_inode_loc(). Long term the API needs to be
fixed so it's obvious why latter is not safe.
When used_dirs was introduced for the flex_groups struct, it looks
like the accounting was not put into place properly, in some places
manipulating free_inodes rather than used_dirs.
If EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl is called with NULL donor_fd, fget() in
ext4_ioctl() gets inappropriate file structure for donor; so we need
to do this check earlier, before calling double_down_write_data_sem().
If the leaf node has 2 extent space or fewer and EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT
ioctl is called with the file offset where after the 2nd extent
covers, mext_insert_across_blocks() always tries to insert extent into
the first extent. As a result, the file gets corrupted because of
wrong extent order. The patch fixes this problem.
The callers of ext4_check_dir_entry() usually pass in the "file
offset" (ext4_readdir, htree_dirblock_to_tree, search_dirblock,
ext4_dx_find_entry, empty_dir), but a few callers (add_dirent_to_buf,
ext4_delete_entry) only pass in the buffer offset.
To accomodate those last two (which would be hard to fix otherwise),
this patch changes ext4_check_dir_entry() to print the physical block
number and the relative offset as well as the passed-in offset.
In case of truncate errors we explicitly remove inode from in-core
orphan list via orphan_del(NULL, inode) without modifying the on-disk list.
But later on, the same inode may be inserted in the orphan list again
which will result the on-disk linked list getting corrupted. If inode
i_dtime contains valid value, then skip on-disk list modification.
Set i_nlink to zero for temporary inode from very beginning.
otherwise we may fail to start new journal handle and this
inode will be unreferenced but with i_nlink == 1
Since we hold inode reference it can not be pruned.
The ext4 multiblock allocator decides whether to use group or file
preallocation based on the file size. When the file size reaches
s_mb_stream_request (default is 16 blocks), it changes to use a
file-specific preallocation. This is cool, but it has a tiny problem.
See a simple script:
mkfs.ext4 -b 1024 /dev/sda8 1000000
mount -t ext4 -o nodelalloc /dev/sda8 /mnt/ext4
for((i=0;i<5;i++))
do
cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/a #4096 is a file with 4096 characters.
cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/b
done
debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1
And you get
BLOCKS:
(0-14):8705-8719, (15):2356, (16-19):8465-8468
So there are 3 extents, a bit strange for the lonely 15th logical
block. As we write to the 16 blocks, we choose file preallocation in
ext4_mb_group_or_file, but in ext4_mb_normalize_request, we meet with
the 16*1024 range, so no preallocation will be carried. file b then
reserves the space after '2356', so when when write 16, we start from
another part.
This patch just change the check in ext4_mb_group_or_file, so
that for the lonely 15 we will still use group preallocation.
After the patch, we will get:
debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1
BLOCKS:
(0-15):8705-8720, (16-19):8465-8468
Looks more sane. Thanks.

fallocate() may potentially instantiate blocks past EOF, depending
on the flags used when it is called.
e2fsck currently has a test for blocks past i_size, and it
sometimes trips up - noticeably on xfstests 013 which runs fsstress.
This patch from Jiayang does fix it up - it (along with
e2fsprogs updates and other patches recently from Aneesh) has
survived many fsstress runs in a row.
Calls to ext4_handle_dirty_metadata should only pass in an inode
pointer for inode-specific metadata, and not for shared metadata
blocks such as inode table blocks, block group descriptors, the
superblock, etc.
The BUG_ON can get tripped when updating a special device (such as a
block device) that is opened (so that i_mapping is set in
fs/block_dev.c) and the file system is mounted in no journal mode.
At several places we modify EXT4_I(inode)->i_state without holding
i_mutex (ext4_release_file, ext4_bmap, ext4_journalled_writepage,
ext4_do_update_inode, ...). These modifications are racy and we can
lose updates to i_state. So convert handling of i_state to use bitops
which are atomic.

We should update reserve space if it is delalloc buffer
and that is indicated by EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE flag.
So use EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE in place of
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_UPDATE_RESERVE_SPACE
[ Stable note: This fixes a corruption cuased by the following
reproduction case:
When we fallocate a region of the file which we had recently written,
and which is still in the page cache marked as delayed allocated blocks
we need to make sure we don't do the quota update on writepage path.
This is because the needed quota updated would have already be done
by fallocate.
In the past, ext4_calc_metadata_amount(), and its sub-functions
ext4_ext_calc_metadata_amount() and ext4_indirect_calc_metadata_amount()
badly over-estimated the number of metadata blocks that might be
required for delayed allocation blocks. This didn't matter as much
when functions which managed the reserved metadata blocks were more
aggressive about dropping reserved metadata blocks as delayed
allocation blocks were written, but unfortunately they were too
aggressive. This was fixed in commit 0637c6f, but as a result the
over-estimation by ext4_calc_metadata_amount() would lead to reserving
2-3 times the number of pending delayed allocation blocks as
potentially required metadata blocks. So if there are 1 megabytes of
blocks which have been not yet been allocation, up to 3 megabytes of
space would get reserved out of the user's quota and from the file
system free space pool until all of the inode's data blocks have been
allocated.
This commit addresses this problem by much more accurately estimating
the number of metadata blocks that will be required. It will still
somewhat over-estimate the number of blocks needed, since it must make
a worst case estimate not knowing which physical blocks will be
needed, but it is much more accurate than before.
As reported in Kernel Bugzilla #14936, commit d21cd8f triggered a BUG
in the function ext4_da_update_reserve_space() found in
fs/ext4/inode.c. The root cause of this BUG() was caused by the fact
that ext4_calc_metadata_amount() can severely over-estimate how many
metadata blocks will be needed, especially when using direct
block-mapped files.
In addition, it can also badly *under* estimate how much space is
needed, since ext4_calc_metadata_amount() assumes that the blocks are
contiguous, and this is not always true. If the application is
writing blocks to a sparse file, the number of metadata blocks
necessary can be severly underestimated by the functions
ext4_da_reserve_space(), ext4_da_update_reserve_space() and
ext4_da_release_space(). This was the cause of the dq_claim_space
reports found on kerneloops.org.
Unfortunately, doing this right means that we need to massively
over-estimate the amount of free space needed. So in some cases we
may need to force the inode to be written to disk asynchronously in
to avoid spurious quota failures.
This fixes a bug (found by Curt Wohlgemuth) in which new blocks
returned from an extent created with ext4_ext_zeroout() can have dirty
metadata still associated with them.
When ext4_da_writepages increases the nr_to_write in writeback_control
then it must always re-base the return value. Originally there was a
(misguided) attempt prevent wbc.nr_to_write from going negative. In
fact, it's necessary to allow nr_to_write to be negative so that
wb_writeback() can correctly calculate how many pages were actually
written.
b_entry_name and buffer are initially NULL, are initialized within a loop
to the result of calling kmalloc, and are freed at the bottom of this loop.
The loop contains gotos to cleanup, which also frees b_entry_name and
buffer. Some of these gotos are before the reinitializations of
b_entry_name and buffer. To maintain the invariant that b_entry_name and
buffer are NULL at the top of the loop, and thus acceptable arguments to
kfree, these variables are now set to NULL after the kfrees.
This seems to be the simplest solution. A more complicated solution
would be to introduce more labels in the error handling code at the end of
the function.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we
send barriers to the fs data disk. We could just throw in an extra
barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal
disk, but that's not always strictly necessary.
We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data
blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in
ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks
to disk. Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of
the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that
any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the
rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal.
Thanks to Oleg Drokin for pointing out this flaw in ext3/ext4.
This patch fixes the Kernel BZ #14286. When the address of an extent
corresponding to a valid block is corrupted, a -EIO should be reported
instead of a BUG(). This situation should not normally not occur
except in the case of a corrupted filesystem. If however it does,
then the system should not panic directly but depending on the mount
time options appropriate action should be taken. If the mount options
so permit, the I/O should be gracefully aborted by returning a -EIO.
We have to delay vfs_dq_claim_space() until allocation context destruction.
Currently we have following call-trace:
ext4_mb_new_blocks()
/* task is already holding ac->alloc_semp */
->ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used
->vfs_dq_claim_space() /* acquire dqptr_sem here. Possible deadlock */
->ext4_mb_release_context() /* drop ac->alloc_semp here */
Let's move quota claiming to ext4_da_update_reserve_space()

Since user-space may still be using the old structure definition
for the ETHTOOL_{G,S}RXFH commands, and since they do not need the
additional fields, only copy the originally defined fields to and
from user-space.

This patch (as1403) is a partial reversion of an earlier change
(commit 5f677f1d45b2bf08085bbba7394392dfa586fa8e "USB: fix remote
wakeup settings during system sleep"). After hearing from a user, I
realized that remote wakeup should be enabled during system sleep
whenever userspace allows it, and not only if a driver requests it
too.
Indeed, there could be a device with no driver, that does nothing but
generate a wakeup request when the user presses a button. Such a
device should be allowed to do its job.
The problem fixed by the earlier patch -- device generating a wakeup
request for no reason, causing system suspend to abort -- was also
addressed by a later patch ("USB: don't enable remote wakeup by
default", accepted but not yet merged into mainline). The device
won't be able to generate the bogus wakeup requests because it will be
disabled for remote wakeup by default. Hence this reversion will not
re-introduce any old problems.
