commit e6155736ad76b2070652745f9e54cdea3f0d8567 upstream.

In the case where we are allocating for a non-extent file,
we must limit the groups we allocate from to those below
2^32 blocks, and ext4_mb_regular_allocator() attempts to
do this initially by putting a cap on ngroups for the
subsequent search loop.

However, the initial target group comes in from the
allocation context (ac), and it may already be beyond
the artificially limited ngroups.  In this case,
the limit

	if (group == ngroups)
		group = 0;

at the top of the loop is never true, and the loop will
run away.

Catch this case inside the loop and reset the search to
start at group 0.

Commit fb0a387dcdc restricts block allocations for indirect-mapped
files to block groups less than s_blockfile_groups.  However, the
online resizing code wasn't setting s_blockfile_groups, so the newly
added block groups were not available for non-extent mapped files.

commit 5d3ee20855e28169d711b394857ee608a5023094 upstream.

It is incorrect to use list_for_each_entry_safe() for journal callback
traversial because -&gt;next may be removed by other task:
-&gt;ext4_mb_free_metadata()
  -&gt;ext4_mb_free_metadata()
    -&gt;ext4_journal_callback_del()

This results in the following issue:

This patch fix the issue as follows:

  simply by always starting from list_head
- fix race between two ext4_journal_callback_del() and
  ext4_journal_callback_try_del()

commit 90ba983f6889e65a3b506b30dc606aa9d1d46cd2 upstream.

A user who was using a 8TB+ file system and with a very large flexbg
size (&gt; 65536) could cause the atomic_t used in the struct flex_groups
to overflow.  This was detected by PaX security patchset:

http://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&amp;t=3289&amp;p=12551#p12551

This bug was introduced in commit 9f24e4208f7e, so it's been around
since 2.6.30.  :-(

Fix this by using an atomic64_t for struct orlav_stats's
free_clusters.

We're using macro EXT4_B2C() to convert number of blocks to number of

<id>2bb5c2c93a427a90c06b1c6b050642774912e7c8</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2b405bfa84063bfa35621d2d6879f52693c614b0 upstream.

In data=journal mode, if we unmount the file system before a
transaction has a chance to complete, when the journal inode is being
evicted, we can end up calling into jbd2_log_wait_commit() for the
last transaction, after the journalling machinery has been shut down.

Arguably we should adjust ext4_should_journal_data() to return FALSE
for the journal inode, but the only place it matters is
ext4_evict_inode(), and so to save a bit of CPU time, and to make the
patch much more obviously correct by inspection(tm), we'll fix it by
explicitly not trying to waiting for a journal commit when we are
evicting the journal inode, since it's guaranteed to never succeed in
this case.

This can be easily replicated via:

     mount -t ext4 -o data=journal /dev/vdb /vdb ; umount /vdb

commit 2b405bfa84063bfa35621d2d6879f52693c614b0 upstream.

In data=journal mode, if we unmount the file system before a
transaction has a chance to complete, when the journal inode is being
evicted, we can end up calling into jbd2_log_wait_commit() for the
last transaction, after the journalling machinery has been shut down.

Arguably we should adjust ext4_should_journal_data() to return FALSE
for the journal inode, but the only place it matters is
ext4_evict_inode(), and so to save a bit of CPU time, and to make the
patch much more obviously correct by inspection(tm), we'll fix it by
explicitly not trying to waiting for a journal commit when we are
evicting the journal inode, since it's guaranteed to never succeed in
this case.

This can be easily replicated via:

     mount -t ext4 -o data=journal /dev/vdb /vdb ; umount /vdb

commit 3a2256702e47f68f921dfad41b1764d05c572329 upstream.

This commit fixes a wrong return value of the number of the allocated
blocks in ext4_split_extent.  When the length of blocks we want to
allocate is greater than the length of the current extent, we return a
wrong number.  Let's see what happens in the following case when we
call ext4_split_extent().

  map: [48, 72]
  ex:  [32, 64, u]

'ex' will be split into two parts:
  ex1: [32, 47, u]
  ex2: [48, 64, w]

'map-&gt;m_len' is returned from this function, and the value is 24.  But
the real length is 16.  So it should be fixed.

Meanwhile in this commit we use right length of the allocated blocks
when get_reserved_cluster_alloc in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents
is called.

<title>ext4: fix free clusters calculation in bigalloc filesystem</title>

commit 304e220f0879198b1f5309ad6f0be862b4009491 upstream.

ext4_has_free_clusters() should tell us whether there is enough free
clusters to allocate, however number of free clusters in the file system
is converted to blocks using EXT4_C2B() which is not only wrong use of
the macro (we should have used EXT4_NUM_B2C) but it's also completely
wrong concept since everything else is in cluster units.

Moreover when calculating number of root clusters we should be using
macro EXT4_NUM_B2C() instead of EXT4_B2C() otherwise the result might be
off by one. However r_blocks_count should always be a multiple of the
cluster ratio so doing a plain bit shift should be enough here. We
avoid using EXT4_B2C() because it's confusing.

As a result of the first problem number of free clusters is much bigger
than it should have been and ext4_has_free_clusters() would return 1 even
if there is really not enough free clusters available.

Fix this by removing the EXT4_C2B() conversion of free clusters and
using bit shift when calculating number of root clusters. This bug
affects number of xfstests tests covering file system ENOSPC situation
handling. With this patch most of the ENOSPC problems with bigalloc file
system disappear, especially the errors caused by delayed allocation not
having enough space when the actual allocation is finally requested.
