<content type='text'>
commit 899f0429c7d3eed886406cd72182bee3b96aa1f9 upstream.

In the code added to function submit_page_section by commit b1058b981,
sdio-&gt;bio can currently be NULL when calling dio_bio_submit.  This then
leads to a NULL pointer access in dio_bio_submit, so check for a NULL
bio in submit_page_section before trying to submit it instead.

Fixes xfstest generic/250 on gfs2.

Replace all 1 &lt;&lt; inode-&gt;i_blkbits and (1 &lt;&lt; inode-&gt;i_blkbits) in fs

This patch also fixes multiple checkpatch warnings: WARNING: Prefer
'unsigned int' to bare use of 'unsigned'

Thanks to Andrew Morton for suggesting more appropriate function instead
of macro.

<content type='text'>
This patch has the dio code use a REQ_OP for the op and rq_flag_bits
for bi_rw flags. To set/get the op it uses the bio_set_op_attrs/bio_op
accssors.

It also begins to convert btrfs's dio_submit_t because of the dio
submit_io callout use. The next patches will completely convert
this code and the reset of the btrfs code paths.

<title>direct-io: fix direct write stale data exposure from concurrent buffered read</title>

<id>9ecd10b7a0270803fd5f36ab93173e6d5b41b895</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently direct writes inside i_size on a DIO_SKIP_HOLES filesystem are
not allowed to allocate blocks(get_more_blocks() sets 'create' to 0
before calling get_block() callback), if it's a sparse file, direct
writes fall back to buffered writes to avoid stale data exposure from
concurrent buffered read.  But there're two cases that can result in
stale data exposure are not correctly detected.

1. The detection for "writing inside i_size" is not sufficient,
   writes can be treated as "extending writes" wrongly.  For example,
   direct write 1FSB (file system block) to a 1FSB sparse file on
   ext2/3/4, starting from offset 0, in this case it's writing inside
   i_size, but 'create' is non-zero, because 'block_in_file' and
   '(i_size_read(inode) &gt;&gt; blkbits' are both zero.

2. Direct writes starting from or beyong i_size (not inside i_size)
   also could trigger block allocation and expose stale data.  For
   example, consider a sparse file with i_size of 2k, and a write to
   offset 2k or 3k into the file, with a filesystem block size of 4k.
   (Thanks to Jeff Moyer for pointing this case out in his review.)

The first problem can be demostrated by running ltp-aiodio test ADSP045
many times.  When testing on extN filesystems, I see test failures
occasionally, buffered read could read non-zero (stale) data.

ADSP045: dio_sparse -a 4k -w 4k -s 2k -n 1

dio_sparse    0  TINFO  :  Dirtying free blocks
dio_sparse    0  TINFO  :  Starting I/O tests
non zero buffer at buf[0] =&gt; 0xffffffaa,ffffffaa,ffffffaa,ffffffaa
non-zero read at offset 0
dio_sparse    0  TINFO  :  Killing childrens(s)
dio_sparse    1  TFAIL  :  dio_sparse.c:191: 1 children(s) exited abnormally

The second problem can also be reproduced easily by a hacked dio_sparse
program, which accepts an option to specify the write offset.

What we should really do is to disable block allocation for writes that
could result in filling holes inside i_size.

The kiocb already has the new position, so use that.  The only interesting
case is AIO, where we currently don't bother updating ki_pos.  We're about
to free the kiocb after we're done, so we might as well update it to make
everyone's life simpler.

While we're at it also return the bytes written argument passed in if
we were successful so that the boilerplate error switch code in the
callers can go away.
