commit 45c72cd73c788dd18c8113d4a404d6b4a01decf1 upstream.

Now we store attr-&gt;ino at inode-&gt;i_ino, return attr-&gt;ino at the
first time and then return inode-&gt;i_ino if the attribute timeout
isn't expired. That's wrong on 32 bit platforms because attr-&gt;ino
is 64 bit and inode-&gt;i_ino is 32 bit in this case.

Fix this by saving 64 bit ino in fuse_inode structure and returning
it every time we call getattr. Also squash attr-&gt;ino into inode-&gt;i_ino
explicitly.

commit 2adcac1a7331d93a17285804819caa96070b231f upstream.

If cow_file_range_inline fails with ENOSPC we abort the transaction which
isn't very nice.  This really shouldn't be happening anyways but there's no
sense in making it a horrible error when we can easily just go allocate
normal data space for this stuff.  Thanks,

<title>ext4: fix the free blocks calculation for ext3 file systems w/ uninit_bg</title>

commit b0dd6b70f0fda17ae9762fbb72d98e40a4f66556 upstream.

Ext3 filesystems that are converted to use as many ext4 file system
features as possible will enable uninit_bg to speed up e2fsck times.
These file systems will have a native ext3 layout of inode tables and
block allocation bitmaps (as opposed to ext4's flex_bg layout).
Unfortunately, in these cases, when first allocating a block in an
uninitialized block group, ext4 would incorrectly calculate the number
of free blocks in that block group, and then errorneously report that
the file system was corrupt:

EXT4-fs error (device vdd): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:741: group 30, 32254 clusters in bitmap, 32258 in gd

This problem can be reproduced via:

    mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g
    mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt
    fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test

The problem was caused by a bone headed mistake in the check to see if a
particular metadata block was part of the block group.

Many thanks to Kees Cook for finding and bisecting the buggy commit
which introduced this bug (commit fd034a84e1, present since v3.2).

commit b22b1f178f6799278d3178d894f37facb2085765 upstream.

Commit 7990696 uses the ext4_{set,clear}_inode_flags() functions to
change the i_flags automatically but fails to remove the error setting
of i_flags.  So we still have the problem of trashing state flags.
Fix this by removing the assignment.

<title>vfs: Fix /proc/&lt;tid&gt;/fdinfo/&lt;fd&gt; file handling</title>

commit 0640113be25d283e0ff77a9f041e1242182387f0 upstream.

Cyrill Gorcunov reports that I broke the fdinfo files with commit
30a08bf2d31d ("proc: move fd symlink i_mode calculations into
tid_fd_revalidate()"), and he's quite right.

The tid_fd_revalidate() function is not just used for the &lt;tid&gt;/fd
symlinks, it's also used for the &lt;tid&gt;/fdinfo/&lt;fd&gt; files, and the
permission model for those are different.

So do the dynamic symlink permission handling just for symlinks, making
the fdinfo files once more appear as the proper regular files they are.

Of course, Al Viro argued (probably correctly) that we shouldn't do the
symlink permission games at all, and make the symlinks always just be
the normal 'lrwxrwxrwx'.  That would have avoided this issue too, but
since somebody noticed that the permissions had changed (which was the
reason for that original commit 30a08bf2d31d in the first place), people
do apparently use this feature.

[ Basically, you can use the symlink permission data as a cheap "fdinfo"
  replacement, since you see whether the file is open for reading and/or
  writing by just looking at st_mode of the symlink.  So the feature
  does make sense, even if the pain it has caused means we probably
  shouldn't have done it to begin with. ]

commit 95599968d19db175829fb580baa6b68939b320fb upstream.

We can't have references held on pages in the s_buddy_cache while we are
trying to truncate its pages and put the inode.  All the pages must be
gone before we reach clear_inode.  This can only be gauranteed if we
can prevent new users from grabbing references to s_buddy_cache's pages.

The original bug can be reproduced and the bug fix can be verified by:

while true; do mount -t ext4 /dev/ram0 /export/hda3/ram0; \
	umount /export/hda3/ram0; done &amp;

while true; do cat /proc/fs/ext4/ram0/mb_groups; done

commit 79906964a187c405db72a3abc60eb9b50d804fbc upstream.

In commit 353eb83c we removed i_state_flags with 64-bit longs, But
when handling the EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS ioctl, we replace i_flags
directly, which trashes the state flags which are stored in the high
32-bits of i_flags on 64-bit platforms.  So use the the
ext4_{set,clear}_inode_flags() functions which use atomic bit
manipulation functions instead.

commit f3fc0210c0fc91900766c995f089c39170e68305 upstream.

The ext4_error() function is missing a call to save_error_info().
Since this is the function which marks the file system as containing
an error, this oversight (which was introduced in 2.6.36) is quite
significant, and should be backported to older stable kernels with
high urgency.

commit 7e936b737211e6b54e34b71a827e56b872e958d8 upstream.

A hard-linked directory to its parent can cause the VFS to deadlock,
and is a sign of a corrupted file system.  So detect this case in
ext4_lookup(), before the rmdir() lockup scenario can take place.
