2012-05-11bio allocation failure due to bio_get_nr_vecs()Bernd Schubert
The number of bio_get_nr_vecs() is passed down via bio_alloc() to bvec_alloc_bs(), which fails the bio allocation if nr_iovecs > BIO_MAX_PAGES. For the underlying caller this causes an unexpected bio allocation failure. Limiting to queue_max_segments() is not sufficient, as max_segments also might be very large. bvec_alloc_bs(gfp_mask, nr_iovecs, ) => NULL when nr_iovecs > BIO_MAX_PAGES bio_alloc_bioset(gfp_mask, nr_iovecs, ...) bio_alloc(GFP_NOIO, nvecs) xfs_alloc_ioend_bio() Signed-off-by: Bernd Schubert <bernd.schubert@itwm.fraunhofer.de> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
2012-05-11block: don't mark buffers beyond end of disk as mappedJeff Moyer
Hi, We have a bug report open where a squashfs image mounted on ppc64 would exhibit errors due to trying to read beyond the end of the disk. It can easily be reproduced by doing the following: [root@ibm-p750e-02-lp3 ~]# ls -l install.img -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 142032896 Apr 30 16:46 install.img [root@ibm-p750e-02-lp3 ~]# mount -o loop ./install.img /mnt/test [root@ibm-p750e-02-lp3 ~]# dd if=/dev/loop0 of=/dev/null dd: reading `/dev/loop0': Input/output error 277376+0 records in 277376+0 records out 142016512 bytes (142 MB) copied, 0.9465 s, 150 MB/s In dmesg, you'll find the following: squashfs: version 4.0 (2009/01/31) Phillip Lougher [ 43.106012] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106029] loop0: rw=0, want=277410, limit=277408 [ 43.106039] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138704 [ 43.106053] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106057] loop0: rw=0, want=277412, limit=277408 [ 43.106061] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138705 [ 43.106066] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106070] loop0: rw=0, want=277414, limit=277408 [ 43.106073] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138706 [ 43.106078] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106081] loop0: rw=0, want=277416, limit=277408 [ 43.106085] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138707 [ 43.106089] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106093] loop0: rw=0, want=277418, limit=277408 [ 43.106096] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138708 [ 43.106101] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106104] loop0: rw=0, want=277420, limit=277408 [ 43.106108] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138709 [ 43.106112] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106116] loop0: rw=0, want=277422, limit=277408 [ 43.106120] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138710 [ 43.106124] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106128] loop0: rw=0, want=277424, limit=277408 [ 43.106131] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138711 [ 43.106135] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106139] loop0: rw=0, want=277426, limit=277408 [ 43.106143] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138712 [ 43.106147] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106151] loop0: rw=0, want=277428, limit=277408 [ 43.106154] Buffer I/O error on device loop0, logical block 138713 [ 43.106158] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106162] loop0: rw=0, want=277430, limit=277408 [ 43.106166] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106169] loop0: rw=0, want=277432, limit=277408 ... [ 43.106307] attempt to access beyond end of device [ 43.106311] loop0: rw=0, want=277470, limit=2774 Squashfs manages to read in the end block(s) of the disk during the mount operation. Then, when dd reads the block device, it leads to block_read_full_page being called with buffers that are beyond end of disk, but are marked as mapped. Thus, it would end up submitting read I/O against them, resulting in the errors mentioned above. I fixed the problem by modifying init_page_buffers to only set the buffer mapped if it fell inside of i_size.

2012-05-11GFS2: Add rgrp information to block_alloc trace pointBob Peterson
This is a second attempt at a patch that adds rgrp information to the block allocation trace point for GFS2. As suggested, the patch was modified to list the rgrp information _after_ the fields that exist today. Again, the reason for this patch is to allow us to trace and debug problems with the block reservations patch, which is still in the works. We can debug problems with reservations if we can see what block allocations result from the block reservations. It may also be handy in figuring out if there are problems in rgrp free space accounting. In other words, we can use it to track the rgrp and its free space along side the allocations that are taking place.

2012-05-10vfs: make it possible to access the dentry hash/len as one 64-bit entryLinus Torvalds
This allows comparing hash and len in one operation on 64-bit architectures. Right now only __d_lookup_rcu() takes advantage of this, since that is the case we care most about. The use of anonymous struct/unions hides the alternate 64-bit approach from most users, the exception being a few cases where we initialize a 'struct qstr' with a static initializer. This makes the problematic cases use a new QSTR_INIT() helper function for that (but initializing just the name pointer with a "{ .name = xyzzy }" initializer remains valid, as does just copying another qstr structure).

2012-05-10vfs: move dentry name length comparison from dentry_cmp() into callersLinus Torvalds
All callers do want to check the dentry length, but some of them can check the length and the hash together, so doing it in dentry_cmp() can be counter-productive. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-05-10vfs: do the careful dentry name access for all dentry_cmp casesLinus Torvalds
Commit 12f8ad4b0533 ("vfs: clean up __d_lookup_rcu() and dentry_cmp() interfaces") did the careful ACCESS_ONCE() of the dentry name only for the word-at-a-time case, even though the issue is generic. Admittedly I don't really see gcc ever reloading the value in the middle of the loop, so the ACCESS_ONCE() protects us from a fairly theoretical issue. But better safe than sorry. Also, this consolidates the common parts of the word-at-a-time and bytewise logic, which includes checking the length. We'll be changing that later. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-05-10vfs: remove unnecessary d_unhashed() check from __d_lookup_rcuLinus Torvalds
The check for d_unhashed() is not strictly incorrect, but at the same time it is also not sensible. The actual dentry removal from the dentry hash chains is totally asynchronous to the __d_lookup_rcu() logic, and we depend on __d_drop() updating the sequence number to invalidate any lookup of an unhashed dentry. So checking d_unhashed() is not incorrect, but it's not useful either: the code has to work correctly even without it. So just remove it. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-05-09NFS: Prevent a deadlock in the new writeback codeTrond Myklebust
We have to unlock the nfs_page before we call nfs_end_page_writeback to avoid races with functions that expect the page to be unlocked when PG_locked and PG_writeback are not set. The problem is that nfs_unlock_request also releases the nfs_page, causing a deadlock if the release of the nfs_open_context triggers an iput() while the PG_writeback flag is still set... The solution is to separate the unlocking and release of the nfs_page, so that we can do the former before nfs_end_page_writeback and the latter after.

2012-05-06vfs: don't force a big memset of stat data just to clear padding fieldsLinus Torvalds
Admittedly this is something that the compiler should be able to just do for us, but gcc just isn't that smart. And trying to use a structure initializer (which would get us the right semantics) ends up resulting in gcc allocating stack space for _two_ 'struct stat', and then copying one into the other. So do it by hand - just have a per-architecture macro that initializes the padding fields. And if the architecture doesn't provide one, fall back to the old behavior of just doing the whole memset() first. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-05-06Btrfs: avoid sleeping in verify_parent_transid while atomicChris Mason
verify_parent_transid needs to lock the extent range to make sure no IO is underway, and so it can safely clear the uptodate bits if our checks fail. But, a few callers are using it with spinlocks held. Most of the time, the generation numbers are going to match, and we don't want to switch to a blocking lock just for the error case. This adds an atomic flag to verify_parent_transid, and changes it to return EAGAIN if it needs to block to properly verifiy things. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
2012-05-06writeback: Avoid iput() from flusher threadJan Kara
Doing iput() from flusher thread (writeback_sb_inodes()) can create problems because iput() can do a lot of work - for example truncate the inode if it's the last iput on unlinked file. Some filesystems depend on flusher thread progressing (e.g. because they need to flush delay allocated blocks to reduce allocation uncertainty) and so flusher thread doing truncate creates interesting dependencies and possibilities for deadlocks. We get rid of iput() in flusher thread by using the fact that I_SYNC inode flag effectively pins the inode in memory. So if we take care to either hold i_lock or have I_SYNC set, we can get away without taking inode reference in writeback_sb_inodes(). As a side effect of these changes, we also fix possible use-after-free in wb_writeback() because inode_wait_for_writeback() call could try to reacquire i_lock on the inode that was already free.

2012-05-06vfs: Move waiting for inode writeback from end_writeback() to evict_inode()Jan Kara
Currently, I_SYNC can never be set when evict_inode() (and thus end_writeback()) is called because flusher thread holds inode reference while inode is under writeback. As a result inode_sync_wait() in those places currently does nothing. However that is going to change and unveils problems with calling inode_sync_wait() from end_writeback(). Several filesystems call end_writeback() after they have deleted the inode (btrfs, gfs2, ...) and other filesystems (ext3, ext4, reiserfs, ...) can deadlock when waiting for I_SYNC because they call end_writeback() from within a transaction. To avoid these issues, we move inode_sync_wait() into evict_inode() before calling ->evict_inode(). That way we preserve the current property that ->evict_inode() and writeback never run in parallel and all filesystems are safe.

2012-05-06writeback: Refactor writeback_single_inode()Jan Kara
The code in writeback_single_inode() is relatively complex. The list requeing logic makes sense only for flusher thread but not really for sync_inode() or write_inode_now() callers. Also when we want to get rid of inode references held by flusher thread, we will need a special I_SYNC handling there. So separate part of writeback_single_inode() which does the real writeback work into __writeback_single_inode() and make writeback_single_inode() do only stuff necessary for callers writing only one inode, moving the special list handling into writeback_sb_inodes(). As a sideeffect this fixes a possible race where we could skip some inode during sync(2) because other writer refiled it from b_io to b_dirty list. Also I_SYNC handling is moved into the callers of __writeback_single_inode() to make locking easier.

2012-05-06writeback: Remove wb->list_lock from writeback_single_inode()Jan Kara
writeback_single_inode() doesn't need wb->list_lock for anything on entry now. So remove the requirement. This makes locking of writeback_single_inode() temporarily awkward (entering with i_lock, returning with i_lock and wb->list_lock) but it will be sanitized in the next patch. Also inode_wait_for_writeback() doesn't need wb->list_lock for anything. It was just taking it to make usage convenient for callers but with writeback_single_inode() changing it's not very convenient anymore. So remove the lock from that function.

2012-05-06writeback: Move I_DIRTY_PAGES handlingJan Kara
Instead of clearing I_DIRTY_PAGES and resetting it when we didn't succeed in writing them all, just clear the bit only when we succeeded writing all the pages. We also move the clearing of the bit close to other i_state handling to separate it from writeback list handling. This is desirable because list handling will differ for flusher thread and other writeback_single_inode() callers in future. No filesystem plays any tricks with I_DIRTY_PAGES (like checking it in ->writepages or ->write_inode implementation) so this movement is safe.

2012-05-06writeback: Move requeueing when I_SYNC set to writeback_sb_inodes()Jan Kara
When writeback_single_inode() is called on inode which has I_SYNC already set while doing WB_SYNC_NONE, inode is moved to b_more_io list. However this makes sense only if the caller is flusher thread. For other callers of writeback_single_inode() it doesn't really make sense and may be even wrong - flusher thread may be doing WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in parallel. So we move requeueing from writeback_single_inode() to writeback_sb_inodes().

2012-05-06writeback: Move clearing of I_SYNC into inode_sync_complete()Jan Kara
Move clearing of I_SYNC into inode_sync_complete(). It is more logical to have clearing of I_SYNC bit and waking of waiters in one place. Also later we will have two places needing to clear I_SYNC and wake up waiters so this allows them to use the common helper. Moving of I_SYNC clearing to a later stage of writeback_single_inode() is safe since we hold i_lock all the time.

2012-05-04vfs: clean up __d_lookup_rcu() and dentry_cmp() interfacesLinus Torvalds
The calling conventions for __d_lookup_rcu() and dentry_cmp() are annoying in different ways, and there is actually one single underlying reason for both of the annoyances. The fundamental reason is that we do the returned dentry sequence number check inside __d_lookup_rcu() instead of doing it in the caller. This results in two annoyances: - __d_lookup_rcu() now not only needs to return the dentry and the sequence number that goes along with the lookup, it also needs to return the inode pointer that was validated by that sequence number check. - and because we did the sequence number check early (to validate the name pointer and length) we also couldn't just pass the dentry itself to dentry_cmp(), we had to pass the counted string that contained the name. So that sequence number decision caused two separate ugly calling conventions. Both of these problems would be solved if we just did the sequence number check in the caller instead. There's only one caller, and that caller already has to do the sequence number check for the parent anyway, so just do that. That allows us to stop returning the dentry->d_inode in that in-out argument (pointer-to-pointer-to-inode), so we can make the inode argument just a regular input inode pointer. The caller can just load the inode from dentry->d_inode, and then do the sequence number check after that to make sure that it's synchronized with the name we looked up. And it allows us to just pass in the dentry to dentry_cmp(), which is what all the callers really wanted. Sure, dentry_cmp() has to be a bit careful about the dentry (which is not stable during RCU lookup), but that's actually very simple. And now that dentry_cmp() can clearly see that the first string argument is a dentry, we can use the direct word access for that, instead of the careful unaligned zero-padding. The dentry name is always properly aligned, since it is a single path component that is either embedded into the dentry itself, or was allocated with kmalloc() (see __d_alloc). Finally, this also uninlines the nasty slow-case for dentry comparisons: that one *does* need to do a sequence number check, since it will call in to the low-level filesystems, and we want to give those a stable inode pointer and path component length/start arguments. Doing an extra sequence check for that slow case is not a problem, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
