[ Upstream commit f598f82e204ec0b17797caaf1b0311c52d43fb9a ]

Commit 8a59f5d25265 ("fs/romfs: return f_fsid for statfs(2)") generates
a 64bit id from sb-&gt;s_bdev-&gt;bd_dev.  This is only correct when romfs is
defined with CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_BLOCK.  If romfs is only defined with
CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_MTD, sb-&gt;s_bdev is NULL, referencing sb-&gt;s_bdev-&gt;bd_dev
will triger an oops.

Richard Weinberger points out that when CONFIG_ROMFS_BACKED_BY_BOTH=y,
both CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_BLOCK and CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_MTD are defined.
Therefore when calling huge_encode_dev() to generate a 64bit id, I use
the follow order to choose parameter,

- CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_BLOCK defined
  use sb-&gt;s_bdev-&gt;bd_dev
- CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_BLOCK undefined and CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_MTD defined
  use sb-&gt;s_dev when,
- both CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_BLOCK and CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_MTD undefined
  leave id as 0

When CONFIG_ROMFS_ON_MTD is defined and sb-&gt;s_mtd is not NULL, sb-&gt;s_dev
is set to a device ID generated by MTD_BLOCK_MAJOR and mtd index,
otherwise sb-&gt;s_dev is 0.

This is a try-best effort to generate a uniq file system ID, if all the
above conditions are not meet, f_fsid of this romfs instance will be 0.
Generally only one romfs can be built on single MTD block device, this
method is enough to identify multiple romfs instances in a computer.

<title>fscache: Clear outstanding writes when disabling a cookie</title>

fscache_disable_cookie() needs to clear the outstanding writes on the
cookie it's disabling because they cannot be completed after.

Without this, fscache_nfs_open_file() gets stuck because it disables the
cookie when the file is opened for writing but can't uncache the pages till
afterwards - otherwise there's a race between the open routine and anyone
who already has it open R/O and is still reading from it.

Looking in /proc/pid/stack of the offending process shows:

<title>fscache: Fix dead object requeue</title>

<id>b421d230dfa17ab13fd4d9a9ac3e7f899bb3b913</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit e26bfebdfc0d212d366de9990a096665d5c0209a ]

Under some circumstances, an fscache object can become queued such that it
fscache_object_work_func() can be called once the object is in the
OBJECT_DEAD state.  This results in the kernel oopsing when it tries to
invoke the handler for the state (which is hard coded to 0x2).

The way this comes about is something like the following:

 (1) The object dispatcher is processing a work state for an object.  This
     is done in workqueue context.

 (2) An out-of-band event comes in that isn't masked, causing the object to
     be queued, say EV_KILL.

 (3) The object dispatcher finishes processing the current work state on
     that object and then sees there's another event to process, so,
     without returning to the workqueue core, it processes that event too.
     It then follows the chain of events that initiates until we reach
     OBJECT_DEAD without going through a wait state (such as
     WAIT_FOR_CLEARANCE).

     At this point, object-&gt;events may be 0, object-&gt;event_mask will be 0
     and oob_event_mask will be 0.

 (4) The object dispatcher returns to the workqueue processor, and in due
     course, this sees that the object's work item is still queued and
     invokes it again.

 (5) The current state is a work state (OBJECT_DEAD), so the dispatcher
     jumps to it - resulting in an OOPS.

When I'm seeing this, the work state in (1) appears to have been either
LOOK_UP_OBJECT or CREATE_OBJECT (object-&gt;oob_table is
fscache_osm_lookup_oob).

The window for (2) is very small:

 (A) object-&gt;event_mask is cleared whilst the event dispatch process is
     underway - though there's no memory barrier to force this to the top
     of the function.

     The window, therefore is from the time the object was selected by the
     workqueue processor and made requeueable to the time the mask was
     cleared.

 (B) fscache_raise_event() will only queue the object if it manages to set
     the event bit and the corresponding event_mask bit was set.

     The enqueuement is then deferred slightly whilst we get a ref on the
     object and get the per-CPU variable for workqueue congestion.  This
     slight deferral slightly increases the probability by allowing extra
     time for the workqueue to make the item requeueable.

Handle this by giving the dead state a processor function and checking the
for the dead state address rather than seeing if the processor function is
address 0x2.  The dead state processor function can then set a flag to
indicate that it's occurred and give a warning if it occurs more than once
per object.

If this race occurs, an oops similar to the following is seen (note the RIP
value):

[ Upstream commit e26bfebdfc0d212d366de9990a096665d5c0209a ]

Under some circumstances, an fscache object can become queued such that it
fscache_object_work_func() can be called once the object is in the
OBJECT_DEAD state.  This results in the kernel oopsing when it tries to
invoke the handler for the state (which is hard coded to 0x2).

The way this comes about is something like the following:

 (1) The object dispatcher is processing a work state for an object.  This
     is done in workqueue context.

 (2) An out-of-band event comes in that isn't masked, causing the object to
     be queued, say EV_KILL.

 (3) The object dispatcher finishes processing the current work state on
     that object and then sees there's another event to process, so,
     without returning to the workqueue core, it processes that event too.
     It then follows the chain of events that initiates until we reach
     OBJECT_DEAD without going through a wait state (such as
     WAIT_FOR_CLEARANCE).

     At this point, object-&gt;events may be 0, object-&gt;event_mask will be 0
     and oob_event_mask will be 0.

 (4) The object dispatcher returns to the workqueue processor, and in due
     course, this sees that the object's work item is still queued and
     invokes it again.

 (5) The current state is a work state (OBJECT_DEAD), so the dispatcher
     jumps to it - resulting in an OOPS.

When I'm seeing this, the work state in (1) appears to have been either
LOOK_UP_OBJECT or CREATE_OBJECT (object-&gt;oob_table is
fscache_osm_lookup_oob).

The window for (2) is very small:

 (A) object-&gt;event_mask is cleared whilst the event dispatch process is
     underway - though there's no memory barrier to force this to the top
     of the function.

     The window, therefore is from the time the object was selected by the
     workqueue processor and made requeueable to the time the mask was
     cleared.

 (B) fscache_raise_event() will only queue the object if it manages to set
     the event bit and the corresponding event_mask bit was set.

     The enqueuement is then deferred slightly whilst we get a ref on the
     object and get the per-CPU variable for workqueue congestion.  This
     slight deferral slightly increases the probability by allowing extra
     time for the workqueue to make the item requeueable.

Handle this by giving the dead state a processor function and checking the
for the dead state address rather than seeing if the processor function is
address 0x2.  The dead state processor function can then set a flag to
indicate that it's occurred and give a warning if it occurs more than once
per object.

If this race occurs, an oops similar to the following is seen (note the RIP
value):

commit b8c600120fc87d53642476f48c8055b38d6e14c7 upstream.

Commit 4fcd1813e640 ("Fix reconnect to not defer smb3 session reconnect
long after socket reconnect") changes the behaviour of the SMB2 echo
service and causes it to renegotiate after a socket reconnect. However
under default settings, the echo service could take up to 120 seconds to
be scheduled.

The patch forces the echo service to be called immediately resulting a
negotiate call being made immediately on reconnect.

commit 791cc43b36eb1f88166c8505900cad1b43c7fe1a upstream.

Commit 2a6fba6 "xfs: only return -errno or success from attr -&gt;put_listent"
changes the returnvalue of __xfs_xattr_put_listen to 0 in case when there is
insufficient space in the buffer assuming that setting context-&gt;count to -1
would be enough, but all of the -&gt;put_listent callers only check seen_enough.
This results in a failed assertion:
XFS: Assertion failed: context-&gt;count &gt;= 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_xattr.c, line: 175
in insufficient buffer size case.

This is only reproducible with at least 2 xattrs and only when the buffer
gets depleted before the last one.

Furthermore if buffersize is such that it is enough to hold the last xattr's
name, but not enough to hold the sum of preceeding xattr names listxattr won't
fail with ERANGE, but will suceed returning last xattr's name without the
first character. The first character end's up overwriting data stored at
(context-&gt;alist - 1).

<title>NFSv4: Don't perform cached access checks before we've OPENed the file</title>

commit 762674f86d0328d5dc923c966e209e1ee59663f2 upstream.

Donald Buczek reports that a nfs4 client incorrectly denies
execute access based on outdated file mode (missing 'x' bit).
After the mode on the server is 'fixed' (chmod +x) further execution
attempts continue to fail, because the nfs ACCESS call updates
the access parameter but not the mode parameter or the mode in
the inode.

The root cause is ultimately that the VFS is calling may_open()
before the NFS client has a chance to OPEN the file and hence revalidate
the access and attribute caches.

Al Viro suggests:
&gt;&gt;&gt; Make nfs_permission() relax the checks when it sees MAY_OPEN, if you know
&gt;&gt;&gt; that things will be caught by server anyway?
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt; That can work as long as we're guaranteed that everything that calls
&gt;&gt; inode_permission() with MAY_OPEN on a regular file will also follow up
&gt;&gt; with a vfs_open() or dentry_open() on success. Is this always the
&gt;&gt; case?
&gt;
&gt; 1) in do_tmpfile(), followed by do_dentry_open() (not reachable by NFS since
&gt; it doesn't have -&gt;tmpfile() instance anyway)
&gt;
&gt; 2) in atomic_open(), after the call of -&gt;atomic_open() has succeeded.
&gt;
&gt; 3) in do_last(), followed on success by vfs_open()
&gt;
&gt; That's all.  All calls of inode_permission() that get MAY_OPEN come from
&gt; may_open(), and there's no other callers of that puppy.

commit 5c5fc09a1157a11dbe84e6421c3e0b37d05238cb upstream.

Donald Buczek reports that NFS clients can also report incorrect
results for access() due to lack of revalidation of attributes
before calling execute_ok().
Looking closely, it seems chdir() is afflicted with the same problem.

Fix is to ensure we call nfs_revalidate_inode_rcu() or
nfs_revalidate_inode() as appropriate before deciding to trust
execute_ok().
