      xfs: don't expose internal symlink metadata buffers to the vfs · 7b7820b8
      Darrick J. Wong authored 
      Ian Kent reported that for inline symlinks, it's possible for
vfs_readlink to hang on to the target buffer returned by
_vn_get_link_inline long after it's been freed by xfs inode reclaim.
This is a layering violation -- we should never expose XFS internals to
the VFS.

When the symlink has a remote target, we allocate a separate buffer,
copy the internal information, and let the VFS manage the new buffer's
lifetime.  Let's adapt the inline code paths to do this too.  It's
less efficient, but fixes the layering violation and avoids the need to
adapt the if_data lifetime to rcu rules.  Clearly I don't care about
readlink benchmarks.

As a side note, this fixes the minor locking violation where we can
access the inode data fork without taking any locks; proper locking (and
eliminating the possibility of having to switch inode_operations on a
live inode) is essential to online repair coordinating repairs
correctly.

      xfs: fix quotaoff mutex usage now that we don't support disabling it · 59d7fab2
      Darrick J. Wong authored 
      Prior to commit 40b52225 ("xfs: remove support for disabling quota
accounting on a mounted file system"), we used the quotaoff mutex to
protect dquot operations against quotaoff trying to pull down dquots as
part of disabling quota.

Now that we only support turning off quota enforcement, the quotaoff
mutex only protects changes in m_qflags/sb_qflags.  We don't need it to
protect dquots, which means we can remove it from setqlimits and the
dquot scrub code.  While we're at it, fix the function that forces
quotacheck, since it should have been taking the quotaoff mutex.

      xfs: shut down filesystem if we xfs_trans_cancel with deferred work items · 47a6df7c
      Darrick J. Wong authored 
      While debugging some very strange rmap corruption reports in connection
with the online directory repair code.  I root-caused the error to the
following incorrect sequence:

<start repair transaction>
<expand directory, causing a deferred rmap to be queued>
<roll transaction>
<cancel transaction>

Obviously, we should have committed the transaction instead of
cancelling it.  Thinking more broadly, however, xfs_trans_cancel should
have warned us that we were throwing away work item that we already
committed to performing.  This is not correct, and we need to shut down
the filesystem.

Change xfs_trans_cancel to complain in the loudest manner if we're
cancelling any transaction with deferred work items attached.
