commit d124b2c53c7bee6569d2a2d0b18b4a1afde00134 upstream.

When the file /proc/fs/fscache/objects (available with
CONFIG_FSCACHE_OBJECT_LIST=y) is opened, we request a user key with
description "fscache:objlist", then access its payload.  However, a
revoked key has a NULL payload, and we failed to check for this.
request_key() *does* skip revoked keys, but there is still a window
where the key can be revoked before we access its payload.

Fix it by checking for a NULL payload, treating it like a key which was
already revoked at the time it was requested.

<title>KEYS: Fix race between updating and finding a negative key</title>

commit 363b02dab09b3226f3bd1420dad9c72b79a42a76 upstream.

Consolidate KEY_FLAG_INSTANTIATED, KEY_FLAG_NEGATIVE and the rejection
error into one field such that:

 (1) The instantiation state can be modified/read atomically.

 (2) The error can be accessed atomically with the state.

 (3) The error isn't stored unioned with the payload pointers.

This deals with the problem that the state is spread over three different
objects (two bits and a separate variable) and reading or updating them
atomically isn't practical, given that not only can uninstantiated keys
change into instantiated or rejected keys, but rejected keys can also turn
into instantiated keys - and someone accessing the key might not be using
any locking.

The main side effect of this problem is that what was held in the payload
may change, depending on the state.  For instance, you might observe the
key to be in the rejected state.  You then read the cached error, but if
the key semaphore wasn't locked, the key might've become instantiated
between the two reads - and you might now have something in hand that isn't
actually an error code.

The state is now KEY_IS_UNINSTANTIATED, KEY_IS_POSITIVE or a negative error
code if the key is negatively instantiated.  The key_is_instantiated()
function is replaced with key_is_positive() to avoid confusion as negative
keys are also 'instantiated'.

Additionally, barriering is included:

 (1) Order payload-set before state-set during instantiation.

 (2) Order state-read before payload-read when using the key.

Further separate barriering is necessary if RCU is being used to access the
payload content after reading the payload pointers.

When an fscrypt-encrypted file is opened, we request the file's master
key from the keyrings service as a logon key, then access its payload.
However, a revoked key has a NULL payload, and we failed to check for
this.  request_key() *does* skip revoked keys, but there is still a
window where the key can be revoked before we acquire its semaphore.

Fix it by checking for a NULL payload, treating it like a key which was
already revoked at the time it was requested.

<title>xfs: trim writepage mapping to within eof</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 40214d128e07dd21bb07a8ed6a7fe2f911281ab2 upstream.

The writeback rework in commit fbcc02561359 ("xfs: Introduce
writeback context for writepages") introduced a subtle change in
behavior with regard to the block mapping used across the
-&gt;writepages() sequence. The previous xfs_cluster_write() code would
only flush pages up to EOF at the time of the writepage, thus
ensuring that any pages due to file-extending writes would be
handled on a separate cycle and with a new, updated block mapping.

The updated code establishes a block mapping in xfs_writepage_map()
that could extend beyond EOF if the file has post-eof preallocation.
Because we now use the generic writeback infrastructure and pass the
cached mapping to each writepage call, there is no implicit EOF
limit in place. If eofblocks trimming occurs during -&gt;writepages(),
any post-eof portion of the cached mapping becomes invalid. The
eofblocks code has no means to serialize against writeback because
there are no pages associated with post-eof blocks. Therefore if an
eofblocks trim occurs and is followed by a file-extending buffered
write, not only has the mapping become invalid, but we could end up
writing a page to disk based on the invalid mapping.

Consider the following sequence of events:

- A buffered write creates a delalloc extent and post-eof
  speculative preallocation.
- Writeback starts and on the first writepage cycle, the delalloc
  extent is converted to real blocks (including the post-eof blocks)
  and the mapping is cached.
- The file is closed and xfs_release() trims post-eof blocks. The
  cached writeback mapping is now invalid.
- Another buffered write appends the file with a delalloc extent.
- The concurrent writeback cycle picks up the just written page
  because the writeback range end is LLONG_MAX. xfs_writepage_map()
  attributes it to the (now invalid) cached mapping and writes the
  data to an incorrect location on disk (and where the file offset is
  still backed by a delalloc extent).

This problem is reproduced by xfstests test generic/464, which
triggers racing writes, appends, open/closes and writeback requests.

To address this problem, trim the mapping used during writeback to
within EOF when the mapping is validated. This ensures the mapping
is revalidated for any pages encountered beyond EOF as of the time
the current mapping was cached or last validated.

commit 793d7dbe6d82a50b9d14bf992b9eaacb70a11ce6 upstream.

Recently we've had warnings arise from the vm handing us pages
without bufferheads attached to them. This should not ever occur
in XFS, but we don't defend against it properly if it does. The only
place where we remove bufferheads from a page is in
xfs_vm_releasepage(), but we can't tell the difference here between
"page is dirty so don't release" and "page is dirty but is being
invalidated so release it".

In some places that are invalidating pages ask for pages to be
released and follow up afterward calling -&gt;releasepage by checking
whether the page was dirty and then aborting the invalidation. This
is a possible vector for releasing buffers from a page but then
leaving it in the mapping, so we really do need to avoid dirty pages
in xfs_vm_releasepage().

To differentiate between invalidated pages and normal pages, we need
to clear the page dirty flag when invalidating the pages. This can
be done through xfs_vm_invalidatepage(), and will result
xfs_vm_releasepage() seeing the page as clean which matches the
bufferhead state on the page after calling block_invalidatepage().

Hence we can re-add the page dirty check in xfs_vm_releasepage to
catch the case where we might be releasing a page that is actually
dirty and so should not have the bufferheads on it removed. This
will remove one possible vector of "dirty page with no bufferheads"
and so help narrow down the search for the root cause of that
problem.

Jason reported that a corrupted filesystem failed to replay
the log with a metadata block out of bounds warning:

XFS (dm-2): _xfs_buf_find: Block out of range: block 0x80270fff8, EOFS 0x9c40000

_xfs_buf_find() and xfs_btree_get_bufs() return NULL if
that happens, and then when xfs_alloc_fix_freelist() calls
xfs_trans_binval() on that NULL bp, we oops with:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000000f8

We don't handle _xfs_buf_find errors very well, every
caller higher up the stack gets to guess at why it failed.
But we should at least handle it somehow, so return
EFSCORRUPTED here.

commit f35c5e10c6ed6ba52a8dd8573924a80b6a02f03f upstream.

xfs_attr3_root_inactive() walks the attr fork tree to invalidate the
associated blocks. xfs_attr3_node_inactive() recursively descends
from internal blocks to leaf blocks, caching block address values
along the way to revisit parent blocks, locate the next entry and
descend down that branch of the tree.

The code that attempts to reread the parent block is unsafe because
it assumes that the local xfs_da_node_entry pointer remains valid
after an xfs_trans_brelse() and re-read of the parent buffer. Under
heavy memory pressure, it is possible that the buffer has been
reclaimed and reallocated by the time the parent block is reread.
This means that 'btree' can point to an invalid memory address, lead
to a random/garbage value for child_fsb and cause the subsequent
read of the attr fork to go off the rails and return a NULL buffer
for an attr fork offset that is most likely not allocated.

Note that this problem can be manufactured by setting
XFS_ATTR_BTREE_REF to 0 to prevent LRU caching of attr buffers,
creating a file with a multi-level attr fork and removing it to
trigger inactivation.

To address this problem, reinit the node/btree pointers to the
parent buffer after it has been re-read. This ensures btree points
to a valid record and allows the walk to proceed.

<title>xfs: don't change inode mode if ACL update fails</title>

commit 67f2ffe31d1a683170c2ba0ecc643e42a5fdd397 upstream.

If we get ENOSPC half way through setting the ACL, the inode mode
can still be changed even though the ACL does not exist. Reorder the
operation to only change the mode of the inode if the ACL is set
correctly.

Whilst this does not fix the problem with crash consistency (that requires
attribute addition to be a deferred op) it does prevent ENOSPC and other
non-fatal errors setting an xattr to be handled sanely.

This fixes xfstests generic/449.

commit bb9c2e5433250f5b477035dc478314f8e6dd5e36 upstream.

Various utility functions and interfaces that iterate internal
devices try to reference the realtime device even when RT support is
not compiled into the kernel.

Make sure this code is excluded from the CONFIG_XFS_RT=n build,
and where appropriate stub functions to return fatal errors if
they ever get called when RT support is not present.
