ext4: only look at the bg_flags field if it is valid

2018-07-11T14:26:44+00:00

commit 8844618d8aa7a9973e7b527d038a2a589665002c upstream.

The bg_flags field in the block group descripts is only valid if the
uninit_bg or metadata_csum feature is enabled.  We were not
consistently looking at this field; fix this.

Also block group #0 must never have uninitialized allocation bitmaps,
or need to be zeroed, since that's where the root inode, and other
special inodes are set up.  Check for these conditions and mark the
file system as corrupted if they are detected.

This addresses CVE-2018-10876.

ext4: handle the rest of ext4_mb_load_buddy() ENOMEM errors

2018-04-13T17:48:02+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9651e6b2e20648d04d5e1fe6479a3056047e8781 ]

I've got another report about breaking ext4 by ENOMEM error returned from
ext4_mb_load_buddy() caused by memory shortage in memory cgroup.
This time inside ext4_discard_preallocations().

This patch replaces ext4_error() with ext4_warning() where errors returned
from ext4_mb_load_buddy() are not fatal and handled by caller:
* ext4_mb_discard_group_preallocations() - called before generating ENOSPC,
  we'll try to discard other group or return ENOSPC into user-space.
* ext4_trim_all_free() - just stop trimming and return ENOMEM from ioctl.

Some callers cannot handle errors, thus __GFP_NOFAIL is used for them:
* ext4_discard_preallocations()
* ext4_mb_discard_lg_preallocations()

Fixes: adb7ef600cc9 ("ext4: use __GFP_NOFAIL in ext4_free_blocks()")

ext4: fix stripe-unaligned allocations

2017-11-08T09:08:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit d9b22cf9f5466a057f2a4f1e642b469fa9d73117 ]

When a filesystem is created using:

	mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -E stride=512 

and we try to allocate 64MB extent, we will end up directly in
ext4_mb_complex_scan_group(). This is because the request is detected
as power-of-two allocation (so we start in ext4_mb_regular_allocator()
with ac_criteria == 0) however the check before
ext4_mb_simple_scan_group() refuses the direct buddy scan because the
allocation request is too large. Since cr == 0, the check whether we
should use ext4_mb_scan_aligned() fails as well and we fall back to
ext4_mb_complex_scan_group().

Fix the problem by checking for upper limit on power-of-two requests
directly when detecting them.

fs: add i_blocksize()

2017-06-14T13:06:00+00:00

commit 93407472a21b82f39c955ea7787e5bc7da100642 upstream.

Replace all 1 << inode->i_blkbits and (1 << inode->i_blkbits) in fs
branch.

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.

ext4: trim allocation requests to group size

2017-03-12T05:41:46+00:00

commit cd648b8a8fd5071d232242d5ee7ee3c0815776af upstream.

If filesystem groups are artifically small (using parameter -g to
mkfs.ext4), ext4_mb_normalize_request() can result in a request that is
larger than a block group. Trim the request size to not confuse
allocation code.

ext4: fix stack memory corruption with 64k block size

2017-01-06T09:40:13+00:00

commit 30a9d7afe70ed6bd9191d3000e2ef1a34fb58493 upstream.

The number of 'counters' elements needed in 'struct sg' is
super_block->s_blocksize_bits + 2. Presently we have 16 'counters'
elements in the array. This is insufficient for block sizes >= 32k. In
such cases the memcpy operation performed in ext4_mb_seq_groups_show()
would cause stack memory corruption.

ext4: fix mballoc breakage with 64k block size

2017-01-06T09:40:13+00:00

commit 69e43e8cc971a79dd1ee5d4343d8e63f82725123 upstream.

'border' variable is set to a value of 2 times the block size of the
underlying filesystem. With 64k block size, the resulting value won't
fit into a 16-bit variable. Hence this commit changes the data type of
'border' to 'unsigned int'.

Merge branch 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "Assorted cleanups and fixes.

  Probably the most interesting part long-term is ->d_init() - that will
  have a bunch of followups in (at least) ceph and lustre, but we'll
  need to sort the barrier-related rules before it can get used for
  really non-trivial stuff.

  Another fun thing is the merge of ->d_iput() callers (dentry_iput()
  and dentry_unlink_inode()) and a bunch of ->d_compare() ones (all
  except the one in __d_lookup_lru())"

ext4: fix reference counting bug on block allocation error

2016-07-15T03:02:47+00:00

If we hit this error when mounted with errors=continue or
errors=remount-ro:

    EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used:2940: comm ext4.exe: Allocating blocks 5090-6081 which overlap fs metadata

then ext4_mb_new_blocks() will call ext4_mb_release_context() and try to
continue. However, ext4_mb_release_context() is the wrong thing to call
here since we are still actually using the allocation context.

Instead, just error out. We could retry the allocation, but there is a
possibility of getting stuck in an infinite loop instead, so this seems
safer.

[ Fixed up so we don't return EAGAIN to userspace. --tytso ]

ext4: optimize ext4_should_retry_alloc() to improve ENOSPC performance

2016-06-26T22:24:01+00:00

If there are no pending blocks to be released after a commit, forcing
a journal commit has no hope of helping.  It's possible that a commit
had just completed, so if there are now free blocks available for
allocation, it's worth retrying the commit.
