commit 35c2a7f4908d404c9124c2efc6ada4640ca4d5d5 upstream.

Fuzzing with trinity oopsed on the 1st instruction of shmem_fh_to_dentry(),
	u64 inum = fid-&gt;raw[2];
which is unhelpfully reported as at the end of shmem_alloc_inode():

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880061cd3000
IP: [&lt;ffffffff812190d0&gt;] shmem_alloc_inode+0x40/0x40
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
Call Trace:
 [&lt;ffffffff81488649&gt;] ? exportfs_decode_fh+0x79/0x2d0
 [&lt;ffffffff812d77c3&gt;] do_handle_open+0x163/0x2c0
 [&lt;ffffffff812d792c&gt;] sys_open_by_handle_at+0xc/0x10
 [&lt;ffffffff83a5f3f8&gt;] tracesys+0xe1/0xe6

Right, tmpfs is being stupid to access fid-&gt;raw[2] before validating that
fh_len includes it: the buffer kmalloc'ed by do_sys_name_to_handle() may
fall at the end of a page, and the next page not be present.

But some other filesystems (ceph, gfs2, isofs, reiserfs, xfs) are being
careless about fh_len too, in fh_to_dentry() and/or fh_to_parent(), and
could oops in the same way: add the missing fh_len checks to those.

Cancel work of the xfs_sync_worker before teardown of the log in
xfs_unmountfs.  This prevents occasional crashes on unmount like so:

<title>xfs: fix race while discarding buffers [V4]</title>
<updated>2012-08-29T20:01:11+00:00</updated>
<author>

<email>cmaiolino@redhat.com</email>

<id>6fb8a90aa3f2319a25f3396b1e9273300f8903b8</id>
<content type='text'>
While xfs_buftarg_shrink() is freeing buffers from the dispose list (filled with
buffers from lru list), there is a possibility to have xfs_buf_stale() racing
with it, and removing buffers from dispose list before xfs_buftarg_shrink() does
it.

This happens because xfs_buftarg_shrink() handle the dispose list without
locking and the test condition in xfs_buf_stale() checks for the buffer being in
*any* list:

if (!list_empty(&amp;bp-&gt;b_lru))

If the buffer happens to be on dispose list, this causes the buffer counter of
lru list (btp-&gt;bt_lru_nr) to be decremented twice (once in xfs_buftarg_shrink()
and another in xfs_buf_stale()) causing a wrong account usage of the lru list.

This may cause xfs_buftarg_shrink() to return a wrong value to the memory
shrinker shrink_slab(), and such account error may also cause an underflowed
value to be returned; since the counter is lower than the current number of
items in the lru list, a decrement may happen when the counter is 0, causing
an underflow on the counter.

The fix uses a new flag field (and a new buffer flag) to serialize buffer
handling during the shrink process. The new flag field has been designed to use
btp-&gt;bt_lru_lock/unlock instead of xfs_buf_lock/unlock mechanism.

dchinner, sandeen, aquini and aris also deserve credits for this.

Pull second vfs pile from Al Viro:
 "The stuff in there: fsfreeze deadlock fixes by Jan (essentially, the
  deadlock reproduced by xfstests 068), symlink and hardlink restriction
  patches, plus assorted cleanups and fixes.

  Note that another fsfreeze deadlock (emergency thaw one) is *not*
  dealt with - the series by Fernando conflicts a lot with Jan's, breaks
  userland ABI (FIFREEZE semantics gets changed) and trades the deadlock
  for massive vfsmount leak; this is going to be handled next cycle.
  There probably will be another pull request, but that stuff won't be
  in it."

Generic code now blocks all writers from standard write paths. So we add
blocking of all writers coming from ioctl (we get a protection of ioctl against
racing remount read-only as a bonus) and convert xfs_file_aio_write() to a
non-racy freeze protection. We also keep freeze protection on transaction
start to block internal filesystem writes such as removal of preallocated
blocks.

Pull xfs update from Ben Myers:
 "Numerous cleanups and several bug fixes.  Here are some highlights:

   - Discontiguous directory buffer support
   - Inode allocator refactoring
   - Removal of the IO lock in inode reclaim
   - Implementation of .update_time
   - Fix for handling of EOF in xfs_vm_writepage
   - Fix for races in xfsaild, and idle mode is re-enabled
   - Fix for a crash in xfs_buf completion handlers on unmount."

Fix up trivial conflicts in fs/xfs/{xfs_buf.c,xfs_log.c,xfs_log_priv.h}
due to duplicate patches that had already been merged for 3.5.

v2: Add the xfs_buf_lock to xfs_quiesce_attr().
    Add explaination why xfs_buf_lock() is used to wait for write.

xfs_wait_buftarg() does not wait for the completion of the write of the
uncached superblock. This write can race with the shutdown of the log
and causes a panic if the write does not win the race.

During the log write, xfsaild_push() will lock the buffer and set the
XBF_ASYNC flag. Because the XBF_FLAG is set, complete() is not performed
on the buffer's iowait entry, we cannot call xfs_buf_iowait() to wait
for the write to complete. The buffer's lock is held until the write is
complete, so we can block on a xfs_buf_lock() request to be notified
that the write is complete.
