      ext4: fix reference counting bug on block allocation error · 9cab14ce
      Vegard Nossum authored
      commit 554a5ccc upstream.
      
      If we hit this error when mounted with errors=continue or
      errors=remount-ro:
      
          EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used:2940: comm ext4.exe: Allocating blocks 5090-6081 which overlap fs metadata
      
      then ext4_mb_new_blocks() will call ext4_mb_release_context() and try to
      continue. However, ext4_mb_release_context() is the wrong thing to call
      here since we are still actually using the allocation context.
      
      Instead, just error out. We could retry the allocation, but there is a
      possibility of getting stuck in an infinite loop instead, so this seems
      safer.
      
      [ Fixed up so we don't return EAGAIN to userspace. --tytso ]

      ext4: short-cut orphan cleanup on error · b58d417d
      Vegard Nossum authored
      commit c65d5c6c upstream.
      
      If we encounter a filesystem error during orphan cleanup, we should stop.
      Otherwise, we may end up in an infinite loop where the same inode is
      processed again and again.
      
          EXT4-fs (loop0): warning: checktime reached, running e2fsck is recommended
          EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:758: group 2, block bitmap and bg descriptor inconsistent: 6117 vs 0 free clusters

      ext4: validate s_reserved_gdt_blocks on mount · 9cfaab73
      Theodore Ts'o authored
      commit 5b9554dc upstream.
      
      If s_reserved_gdt_blocks is extremely large, it's possible for
      ext4_init_block_bitmap(), which is called when ext4 sets up an
      uninitialized block bitmap, to corrupt random kernel memory.  Add the
      same checks which e2fsck has --- it must never be larger than
      blocksize / sizeof(__u32) --- and then add a backup check in
      ext4_init_block_bitmap() in case the superblock gets modified after
      the file system is mounted.
