This takes code from fs/mpage.c and optimizes it for ext4. Its primary reason is to allow us to more easily add encryption to ext4's read path in an efficient manner. Signed-off-by:

Previously commit 14ece102 added a support for for syncing parent directory of newly created inodes to make sure that the inode is not lost after a power failure in no-journal mode. However this does not work in majority of cases, namely: - if the directory has inline data - if the directory is already indexed - if the directory already has at least one block and: - the new entry fits into it - or we've successfully converted it to indexed So in those cases we might lose the inode entirely even after fsync in the no-journal mode. This also includes ext2 default mode obviously. I've noticed this while running xfstest generic/321 and even though the test should fail (we need to run fsck after a crash in no-journal mode) I could not find a newly created entries even when if it was fsynced before. Fix this by adjusting the ext4_add_entry() successful exit paths to set the inode EXT4_STATE_NEWENTRY so that fsync has the chance to fsync the parent directory as well. Signed-off-by:

When xfstests' auto group is run on a bigalloc filesystem with a 4.0-rc3 kernel, e2fsck failures and kernel warnings occur for some tests. e2fsck reports incorrect iblocks values, and the warnings indicate that the space reserved for delayed allocation is being overdrawn at allocation time. Some of these errors occur because the reserved space is incorrectly decreased by one cluster when ext4_ext_map_blocks satisfies an allocation request by mapping an unused portion of a previously allocated cluster. Because a cluster's worth of reserved space was already released when it was first allocated, it should not be released again. This patch appears to correct the e2fsck failure reported for generic/232 and the kernel warnings produced by ext4/001, generic/009, and generic/033. Failures and warnings for some other tests remain to be addressed. Signed-off-by:

In ext4_zero_range(), removing a file's entire block range from the extent status tree removes all records of that file's delalloc extents. The delalloc accounting code uses this information, and its loss can then lead to accounting errors and kernel warnings at writeback time and subsequent file system damage. This is most noticeable on bigalloc file systems where code in ext4_ext_map_blocks() handles cases where delalloc extents share clusters with a newly allocated extent. Because we're not deleting a block range and are correctly updating the status of its associated extent, there is no need to remove anything from the extent status tree. When this patch is combined with an unrelated bug fix for ext4_zero_range(), kernel warnings and e2fsck errors reported during xfstests runs on bigalloc filesystems are greatly reduced without introducing regressions on other xfstests-bld test scenarios.

Currently there is a bug in zero range code which causes zero range calls to only allocate block aligned portion of the range, while ignoring the rest in some cases. In some cases, namely if the end of the range is past i_size, we do attempt to preallocate the last nonaligned block. However this might cause kernel to BUG() in some carefully designed zero range requests on setups where page size > block size. Fix this problem by first preallocating the entire range, including the nonaligned edges and converting the written extents to unwritten in the next step. This approach will also give us the advantage of having the range to be as linearly contiguous as possible. Signed-off-by:

According to C99, %*.s means the same as %*.0s, in other words, print as many spaces as the field width argument says and effectively ignore the string argument. That is certainly not what was meant here. The kernel's printf implementation, however, treats it as if the . was not there, i.e. as %*s. I don't know if de->name is nul-terminated or not, but in any case I'm guessing the intention was to use de->name_len as precision instead of field width. [ Note: this is debugging code which is commented out, so this is not security issue; a developer would have to explicitly enable INLINE_DIR_DEBUG before this would be an issue. ] Signed-off-by:

Jan Kara pointed out that if there is an inode which is constantly getting dirtied with I_DIRTY_PAGES, an inode with an updated timestamp will never be written since inode->dirtied_when is constantly getting updated. We fix this by adding an extra field to the inode, dirtied_time_when, so inodes with a stale dirtytime can get detected and handled. In addition, if we have a dirtytime inode caused by an atime update, and there is no write activity on the file system, we need to have a secondary system to make sure these inodes get written out. We do this by setting up a second delayed work structure which wakes up the CPU much more rarely compared to writeback_expire_centisecs. Signed-off-by:

This is a tricky story of the new atomic state handling and the legacy code fighting over each another. The bug at hand is an underrun of the framebuffer reference with subsequent hilarity caused by the load detect code. Which is peculiar since the the exact same code works fine as the implementation of the legacy setcrtc ioctl. Let's look at the ingredients: - Currently our code is a crazy mix of legacy modeset interfaces to set the parameters and half-baked atomic state tracking underneath. While this transition is going we're using the transitional plane helpers to update the atomic side (drm_plane_helper_disable/update and friends), i.e. plane->state->fb. Since the state structure owns the fb those functions take care of that themselves. The legacy state (specifically crtc->primary->fb) is still managed by the old code (and mostly by the drm core), with the fb reference counting done by callers (core drm for the ioctl or the i915 load detect code). The relevant commit is commit ea2c67bb Author: Matt Roper <matthew.d.roper@intel.com> Date: Tue Dec 23 10:41:52 2014 -0800 drm/i915: Move to atomic plane helpers (v9) - drm_plane_helper_disable has special code to handle multiple calls in a row - it checks plane->crtc == NULL and bails out. This is to match the proper atomic implementation which needs the crtc to get at the implied locking context atomic updates always need. See commit acf24a39 Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Tue Jul 29 15:33:05 2014 +0200 drm/plane-helper: transitional atomic plane helpers - The universal plane code split out the implicit primary plane from the CRTC into it's own full-blown drm_plane object. As part of that the setcrtc ioctl (which updated both the crtc mode and primary plane) learned to set crtc->primary->crtc on modeset to make sure the plane->crtc assignments statate up to date in commit e13161af Author: Matt Roper <matthew.d.roper@intel.com> Date: Tue Apr 1 15:22:38 2014 -0700 drm: Add drm_crtc_init_with_planes() (v2) Unfortunately we've forgotten to update the load detect code. Which wasn't a problem since the load detect modeset is temporary and always undone before we drop the locks. - Finally there is a organically grown history (i.e. don't ask) around who sets the legacy plane->fb for the various driver entry points. Originally updating that was the drivers duty, but for almost all places we've moved that (plus updating the refcounts) into the core. Again the exception is the load detect code. Taking all together the following happens: - The load detect code doesn't set crtc->primary->crtc. This is only really an issue on crtcs never before used or when userspace explicitly disabled the primary plane. - The plane helper glue code short-circuits because of that and leaves a non-NULL fb behind in plane->state->fb and plane->fb. The state fb isn't a real problem (it's properly refcounted on its own), it's just the canary. - Load detect code drops the reference for that fb, but doesn't set plane->fb = NULL. This is ok since it's still living in that old world where drivers had to clear the pointer but the core/callers handled the refcounting. - On the next modeset the drm core notices plane->fb and takes care of refcounting it properly by doing another unref. This drops the refcount to zero, leaving state->plane now pointing at freed memory. - intel_plane_duplicate_state still assume it owns a reference to that very state->fb and bad things start to happen. Fix this all by applying the same duct-tape as for the legacy setcrtc ioctl code and set crtc->primary->crtc properly.

Core mm expects __PAGETABLE_{PUD,PMD}_FOLDED to be defined if these page table levels folded. Usually, these defines are provided by <asm-generic/pgtable-nopmd.h> and <asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h>. But some architectures fold page table levels in a custom way. They need to define these macros themself. This patch adds missing defines.

Historically, !__GFP_FS allocations were not allowed to invoke the OOM killer once reclaim had failed, but nevertheless kept looping in the allocator. Commit 9879de73 ("mm: page_alloc: embed OOM killing naturally into allocation slowpath"), which should have been a simple cleanup patch, accidentally changed the behavior to aborting the allocation at that point. This creates problems with filesystem callers (?) that currently rely on the allocator waiting for other tasks to intervene.

Each inode of nilfs2 stores a root node of a b-tree, and it turned out to have a memory overrun issue: Each b-tree node of nilfs2 stores a set of key-value pairs and the number of them (in "bn_nchildren" member of nilfs_btree_node struct), as well as a few other "bn_*" members. Since the value of "bn_nchildren" is used for operations on the key-values within the b-tree node, it can cause memory access overrun if a large number is incorrectly set to "bn_nchildren". For instance, nilfs_btree_node_lookup() function determines the range of binary search with it, and too large "bn_nchildren" leads nilfs_btree_node_get_key() in that function to overrun. As for intermediate b-tree nodes, this is prevented by a sanity check performed when each node is read from a drive, however, no sanity check has been done for root nodes stored in inodes. This patch fixes the issue by adding missing sanity check against b-tree root nodes so that it's called when on-memory inodes are read from ifile, inode metadata file. Signed-off-by:
