eCryptfs has file encryption keys (FEK), file encryption key encryption
keys (FEKEK), and filename encryption keys (FNEK). The per-file FEK is
encrypted with one or more FEKEKs and stored in the header of the
encrypted file. I noticed that the FEK is also being encrypted by the
FNEK. This is a problem if a user wants to use a different FNEK than
their FEKEK, as their file contents will still be accessible with the
FNEK.
This is a minimalistic patch which prevents the FNEKs signatures from
being copied to the inode signatures list. Ultimately, it keeps the FEK
from being encrypted with a FNEK.

When a ramfs nommu mapping is expanded, contiguous pages are allocated
and added to the pagecache. The caller's reference is then passed on
by moving whole pagevecs to the file lru list.
If the page cache adding fails, make sure that the error path also
moves the pagevec contents which might still contain up to PAGEVEC_SIZE
successfully added pages, of which we would leak references otherwise.

The pages attached to a ramfs inode's pagecache by truncation from nothing
- as done by SYSV SHM for example - may get discarded under memory
pressure.
The problem is that the pages are not marked dirty. Anything that creates
data in an MMU-based ramfs will cause the pages holding that data will
cause the set_page_dirty() aop to be called.
For the NOMMU-based mmap, set_page_dirty() may be called by write(), but
it won't be called by page-writing faults on writable mmaps, and it isn't
called by ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() when a file is being truncated
from nothing to allocate a contiguous run.
The solution is to mark the pages dirty at the point of allocation by the
truncation code.

Squashfs: Valid filesystems are flagged as bad by the corrupted fs patch
|
|
There was a report of a data corruption
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/14/121. There is a script included to
reproduce the problem.
During testing, I encountered a number of strange things with ext3, so I
tried ext2 to attempt to reduce complexity of the problem. I found that
fsstress would quickly hang in wait_on_inode, waiting for I_LOCK to be
cleared, even though instrumentation showed that unlock_new_inode had
already been called for that inode. This points to memory scribble, or
synchronisation problme.
i_state of I_NEW inodes is not protected by inode_lock because other
processes are not supposed to touch them until I_LOCK (and I_NEW) is
cleared. Adding WARN_ON(inode->i_state & I_NEW) to sites where we modify
i_state revealed that generic_sync_sb_inodes is picking up new inodes from
the inode lists and passing them to __writeback_single_inode without
waiting for I_NEW. Subsequently modifying i_state causes corruption. In
my case it would look like this:
CPU0 CPU1
unlock_new_inode() __sync_single_inode()
reg <- inode->i_state
reg -> reg & ~(I_LOCK|I_NEW) reg <- inode->i_state
reg -> inode->i_state reg -> reg | I_SYNC
reg -> inode->i_state
Non-atomic RMW on CPU1 overwrites CPU0 store and sets I_LOCK|I_NEW again.
Fix for this is rather than wait for I_NEW inodes, just skip over them:
inodes concurrently being created are not subject to data integrity
operations, and should not significantly contribute to dirty memory
either.
After this change, I'm unable to reproduce any of the added warnings or
hangs after ~1hour of running. Previously, the new warnings would start
immediately and hang would happen in under 5 minutes.
I'm also testing on ext3 now, and so far no problems there either. I
don't know whether this fixes the problem reported above, but it fixes a
real problem for me.

If the second fasync_helper() fails, pipe_rdwr_fasync() returns the error
but leaves the file on ->fasync_readers.
This was always wrong, but since 233e70f4228e78eb2f80dc6650f65d3ae3dbf17c
"saner FASYNC handling on file close" we have the new problem. Because in
this case setfl() doesn't set FASYNC bit, __fput() will not do
->fasync(0), and we leak fasync_struct with ->fa_file pointing to the
freed file.

The corrupted filesystem patch added a check against zlib trying to
output too much data in the presence of data corruption. This check
triggered if zlib_inflate asked to be called again (Z_OK) with
avail_out == 0 and no more output buffers available. This check proves
to be rather dumb, as it incorrectly catches the case where zlib has
generated all the output, but there are still input bytes to be processed.
This patch does a number of things. It removes the original check and
replaces it with code to not move to the next output buffer if there
are no more output buffers available, relying on zlib to error if it
wants an extra output buffer in the case of data corruption. It
also replaces the Z_NO_FLUSH flag with the more correct Z_SYNC_FLUSH
flag, and makes the error messages more understandable to
non-technical users.

I was seeing fsck errors on inode bitmaps after a 4 thread
dbench run on a 4 cpu machine:
Inode bitmap differences: -50736 -(50752--50753) etc...
I believe that this is because ext4_free_inode() uses atomic
bitops, and although ext4_new_inode() *used* to also use atomic
bitops for synchronization, commit
393418676a7602e1d7d3f6e560159c65c8cbd50e changed this to use
the sb_bgl_lock, so that we could also synchronize against
read_inode_bitmap and initialization of uninit inode tables.
However, that change left ext4_free_inode using atomic bitops,
which I think leaves no synchronization between setting &
unsetting bits in the inode table.
The below patch fixes it for me, although I wonder if we're
getting at all heavy-handed with this spinlock...

In fs/Makefile, ext3 was placed before ext2 so that a root filesystem
that possessed a journal, it would be mounted as ext3 instead of ext2.
This was necessary because a cleanly unmounted ext3 filesystem was
fully backwards compatible with ext2, and could be mounted by ext2 ---
but it was desirable that it be mounted with ext3 so that the
journaling would be enabled.
The ext4 filesystem supports new incompatible features, so there is no
danger of an ext4 filesystem being mistaken for an ext2 filesystem.
At that point, the relative ordering of ext4 with respect to ext2
didn't matter until ext4 gained the ability to mount filesystems
without a journal starting in 2.6.29-rc1. Now that this is the case,
given that ext4 is before ext2, it means that root filesystems that
were using the plain-jane ext2 format are getting mounted using the
ext4 filesystem driver, which is a change in behavior which could be
surprising to users.
It's doubtful that there are that many ext2-only root filesystem users
that would also have ext4 compiled into the kernel, but to adhere to
the principle of least surprise, the correct ordering in fs/Makefile
is ext3, followed by ext2, and finally ext4.

This is a workaround for find_group_flex() which badly needs to be
replaced. One of its problems (besides ignoring the Orlov algorithm)
is that it is a bit hyperactive about returning failure under
suspicious circumstances. This can lead to spurious ENOSPC failures
even when there are inodes still available.
Work around this for now by retrying the search using
find_group_other() if find_group_flex() returns -1. If
find_group_other() succeeds when find_group_flex() has failed, log a
warning message.
A better block/inode allocator that will fix this problem for real has
been queued up for the next merge window.

At scan time we observed following scenario:
node A inserted
node B inserted
node C inserted -> sets overlapped flag on node B
node A is removed due to CRC failure -> overlapped flag on node B remains
while (tn->overlapped)
tn = tn_prev(tn);
==> crash, when tn_prev(B) is referenced.
When the ultimate node is removed at scan time and the overlapped flag
is set on the penultimate node, then nothing updates the overlapped
flag of that node. The overlapped iterators blindly expect that the
ultimate node does not have the overlapped flag set, which causes the
scan code to crash.
It would be a huge overhead to go through the node chain on node
removal and fix up the overlapped flags, so detecting such a case on
the fly in the overlapped iterators is a simpler and reliable
solution.

When two different users mount the same Windows 2003 Server share using CIFS,
the first session mounted can be invalidated. Some servers invalidate the first
smb session when a second similar user (e.g. two users who get mapped by server to "guest")
authenticates an smb session from the same client.
By making sure that we set the 2nd and subsequent vc numbers to nonzero values,
this ensures that we will not have this problem.
Fixes Samba bug 6004, problem description follows:
How to reproduce:
- configure an "open share" (full permissions to Guest user) on Windows 2003
Server (I couldn't reproduce the problem with Samba server or Windows older

Samba server added support for a new posix open/create/mkdir operation
a year or so ago, and we added support to cifs for mkdir to use it,
but had not added the corresponding code to file create.
The following patch helps improve the performance of the cifs create
path (to Samba and servers which support the cifs posix protocol
extensions). Using Connectathon basic test1, with 2000 files, the
performance improved about 15%, and also helped reduce network traffic
(17% fewer SMBs sent over the wire) due to saving a network round trip
for the SetPathInfo on every file create.
It should also help the semantics (and probably the performance) of
write (e.g. when posix byte range locks are on the file) on file
handles opened with posix create, and adds support for a few flags
which would have to be ignored otherwise.

Fixes kernel bug #10451 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10451
Certain NAS appliances do not set the operating system or network operating system
fields in the session setup response on the wire. cifs was oopsing on the unexpected
zero length response fields (when trying to null terminate a zero length field).
This fixes the oops.
