commit 8762202dd0d6e46854f786bdb6fb3780a1625efe upstream.

I hit a J_ASSERT(blocknr != 0) failure in cleanup_journal_tail() when
mounting a fsfuzzed ext3 image. It turns out that the corrupted ext3
image has s_first = 0 in journal superblock, and the 0 is passed to
journal-&gt;j_head in journal_reset(), then to blocknr in
cleanup_journal_tail(), in the end the J_ASSERT failed.

So validate s_first after reading journal superblock from disk in
journal_get_superblock() to ensure s_first is valid.

The following script could reproduce it:

fstype=ext3
blocksize=1024
img=$fstype.img
offset=0
found=0
magic="c0 3b 39 98"

dd if=/dev/zero of=$img bs=1M count=8
mkfs -t $fstype -b $blocksize -F $img
filesize=`stat -c %s $img`
while [ $offset -lt $filesize ]
do
        if od -j $offset -N 4 -t x1 $img | grep -i "$magic";then
                echo "Found journal: $offset"
                found=1
                break
        fi
        offset=`echo "$offset+$blocksize" | bc`
done

if [ $found -ne 1 ];then
        echo "Magic \"$magic\" not found"
        exit 1
fi

dd if=/dev/zero of=$img seek=$(($offset+23)) conv=notrunc bs=1 count=1

mkdir -p ./mnt
mount -o loop $img ./mnt

<title>jbd2: Fix oops in jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head()</title>

<id>de1b794130b130e77ffa975bb58cb843744f9ae5</id>
<content type='text'>
jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() can oops when trying to access
journal_head returned by bh2jh(). This is caused for example by the
following race:

	TASK1					TASK2
  jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
    ...
    processing t_forget list
      __jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(jh);
      if (!jh-&gt;b_transaction) {
        jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh);
					jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers()
					  jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head(bh)
					  jbd_lock_bh_state(bh)
					  __journal_try_to_free_buffer()
					  jbd2_journal_put_journal_head(jh)
        jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head(bh);

jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() in TASK2 sees that b_jcount == 0 and
buffer is not part of any transaction and thus frees journal_head
before TASK1 gets to doing so. Note that even buffer_head can be
released by try_to_free_buffers() after
jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() which adds even larger opportunity for
oops (but I didn't see this happen in reality).

Fix the problem by making transactions hold their own journal_head
reference (in b_jcount). That way we don't have to remove journal_head
explicitely via jbd2_journal_remove_journal_head() and instead just
remove journal_head when b_jcount drops to zero. The result of this is
that [__]jbd2_journal_refile_buffer(),
[__]jbd2_journal_unfile_buffer(), and
__jdb2_journal_remove_checkpoint() can free journal_head which needs
modification of a few callers. Also we have to be careful because once
journal_head is removed, buffer_head might be freed as well. So we
have to get our own buffer_head reference where it matters.

In data=ordered mode, it's theoretically possible (however rare) that
an inode is filed to transaction's t_inode_list and a flusher thread
writes all the data and inode is reclaimed before the transaction
starts to commit.  In such a case, we could erroneously omit sending a
flush to file system device when it is different from the journal
device (because data can still be in disk cache only).

Fix the problem by setting a flag in a transaction when some inode is added
to it and then send disk flush in the commit code when the flag is set.

<title>jbd2: Fix the wrong calculation of t_max_wait in update_t_max_wait</title>

<content type='text'>
t_max_wait is added in commit 8e85fb3f to indicate how long we
were waiting for new transaction to start. In commit 6d0bf005,
it is moved to another function named update_t_max_wait to
avoid a build warning. But the wrong thing is that the original
'ts' is initialized in the start of function start_this_handle
and we can calculate t_max_wait in the right way. while with
this change, ts is initialized within the function and t_max_wait
can never be calculated right.

This patch moves the initialization of ts to the original beginning
of start_this_handle and pass it to function update_t_max_wait so
that it can be calculated right and the build warning is avoided also.
