Now that all places setting inode-&gt;i_flags that should be reflected in
on-disk flags are gone, we can remove ext2_get_inode_flags() call.

<title>ext2: Call dquot_writeback_dquots() with s_umount held</title>

<content type='text'>
ext2_sync_fs() could be called without s_umount semaphore held when
called through ext2_write_super() from __ext2_write_inode(). This
function then calls dquot_writeback_dquots() which relies on s_umount to
be held for protection against other quota operations.

In fact __ext2_write_inode() does not need all the functionality
ext2_write_super() provides. It is enough to just write the superblock.
So use ext2_sync_super() instead.

<title>ext2: fix filesystem deadlock while reading corrupted xattr block</title>

<content type='text'>
This bug can be reproducible with fsfuzzer, although, I couldn't reproduce it
100% of my tries, it is quite easily reproducible.

During the deletion of an inode, ext2_xattr_delete_inode() does not check if the
block pointed by EXT2_I(inode)-&gt;i_file_acl is a valid data block, this might
lead to a deadlock, when i_file_acl == 1, and the filesystem block size is 1024.

In that situation, ext2_xattr_delete_inode, will load the superblock's buffer
head (instead of a valid i_file_acl block), and then lock that buffer head,
which, ext2_sync_super will also try to lock, making the filesystem deadlock in
the following stack trace:

root     17180  0.0  0.0 113660   660 pts/0    D+   07:08   0:00 rmdir

Fix this by using the same approach ext4 uses to test data blocks validity,
implementing ext2_data_block_valid.

An another possibility when the superblock is very corrupted, is that i_file_acl
is 1, block_count is 1 and first_data_block is 0. For such situations, we might
have i_file_acl pointing to a 'valid' block, but still step over the superblock.
The approach I used was to also test if the superblock is not in the range
described by ext2_data_block_valid() arguments

number 2 is now meaningless. This is just a mechanical replacement.

The conversion is generally straightforward. We convert filesystem from
a global cache to per-fs one. Similarly to ext4 the tricky part is that
xattr block corresponding to found mbcache entry can get freed before we
get buffer lock for that block. So we have to check whether the entry is
still valid after getting the buffer lock.

<title>ext2: Add locking for DAX faults</title>
<updated>2015-10-19T12:40:54+00:00</updated>

<id>5726b27b09cc92452b543764899a07e7c8037edd</id>
<content type='text'>
Add locking to ensure that DAX faults are isolated from ext2 operations
that modify the data blocks allocation for an inode.  This is intended to
be analogous to the work being done in XFS by Dave Chinner:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg90260.html

Compared with XFS the ext2 case is greatly simplified by the fact that ext2
already allocates and zeros new blocks before they are returned as part of
ext2_get_block(), so DAX doesn't need to worry about getting unmapped or
unwritten buffer heads.

This means that the only work we need to do in ext2 is to isolate the DAX
faults from inode block allocation changes.  I believe this just means that
we need to isolate the DAX faults from truncate operations.

The newly introduced dax_sem is intended to replicate the protection
offered by i_mmaplock in XFS.  In addition to truncate the i_mmaplock also
protects XFS operations like hole punching, fallocate down, extent
manipulation IOCTLS like xfs_ioc_space() and extent swapping.  Truncate is
the only one of these operations supported by ext2.
