2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix a problem whereby a buggy server can oops the kernelTrond Myklebust
We just had a case in which a buggy server occasionally returns the wrong attributes during an OPEN call. While the client does catch this sort of condition in nfs4_open_done(), and causes the nfs4_atomic_open() to return -EISDIR, the logic in nfs_atomic_lookup() is broken, since it causes a fallback to an ordinary lookup instead of just returning the error. When the buggy server then returns a regular file for the fallback lookup, the VFS allows the open, and bad things start to happen, since the open file doesn't have any associated NFSv4 state. The fix is firstly to return the EISDIR/ENOTDIR errors immediately, and secondly to ensure that we are always careful when dereferencing the nfs_open_context state pointer.

2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix an NFSv4 mount regressionTrond Myklebust
Commit 008f55d0e019943323c20a03493a2ba5672a4cc8 (nfs41: recover lease in _nfs4_lookup_root) forces the state manager to always run on mount. This is a bug in the case of NFSv4.0, which doesn't require us to send a setclientid until we want to grab file state. In any case, this is completely the wrong place to be doing state management. Moving that code into nfs4_init_session... Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix an Oops in nfs4_free_lock_stateTrond Myklebust
The oops http://www.kerneloops.org/raw.php?rawid=537858&msgid= appears to be due to the nfs4_lock_state->ls_state field being uninitialised. This happens if the call to nfs4_free_lock_state() is triggered at the end of nfs4_get_lock_state(). The fix is to move the initialisation of ls_state into the allocator.

2009-07-13jbd2: fix race between write_metadata_buffer and get_write_accessdingdinghua
The function jbd2_journal_write_metadata_buffer() calls jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh_in) too early; this could potentially allow another thread to call get_write_access on the buffer head, modify the data, and dirty it, and allowing the wrong data to be written into the journal. Fortunately, if we lose this race, the only time this will actually cause filesystem corruption is if there is a system crash or other unclean shutdown of the system before the next commit can take place.

2009-07-13ext4: Fix buffer head reference leak in no-journal modeCurt Wohlgemuth
We found a problem with buffer head reference leaks when using an ext4 partition without a journal. In particular, calls to ext4_forget() would not to a brelse() on the input buffer head, which will cause pages they belong to to not be reclaimable. Further investigation showed that all places where ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke() are called are subject to the same problem. The patch below changes __ext4_journal_forget/__ext4_journal_revoke to do an explicit release of the buffer head when the journal handle isn't valid.

2009-07-10block: fix sg SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV regressionFUJITA Tomonori
I overlooked SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV support when I converted sg to use the block layer mapping API (2.6.28). Douglas Gilbert explained SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37135.html = The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were: - copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer - do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN (data from device) variety. This would overwrite some or all of the kernel buffer - copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space. The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way of detecting short reads but that was only added this century and requires co-operation from the LLD. = This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ requests. It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer mapping API. zhou sf reported this regiression and tested this patch: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37128.html http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37168.html Reported-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Tested-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

In the 'ubifs_recover_leb()' function, when we find corrupted empty space, we dump 8K starting from the offset where the last node ends. This is OK if the corrupted empty space is somewhere near that offset. But if the corruption is far at the end of the LEB, we will dump all 0xFF bytes and complitely ignore the interesting data.

2009-07-07quota: Fix possible deadlock during parallel quotaon and quotaoffJiaying Zhang
The following test script triggers a deadlock on ext2 filesystem: while true; do quotaon /dev/hda >&/dev/null; usleep $RANDOM; done & while true; do quotaoff /dev/hda >&/dev/null; usleep $RANDOM; done & I found there is a potential deadlock between quotaon and quotaoff (or quotasync). Basically, all of quotactl operations need to be protected by dqonoff_mutex. vfs_quota_off and vfs_quota_sync also call sb->s_op->quota_write that needs to grab the i_mutex of the quota file. But in vfs_quota_on_inode (called from quotaon operation), the current code tries to grab the i_mutex of the quota file first before getting quonoff_mutex. Reverse the order in which we take locks in vfs_quota_on_inode(). Jan Kara: Changed changelog to be more readable, made lockdep happy with I_MUTEX_QUOTA.

2009-07-06cred_guard_mutex: do not return -EINTR to user-spaceOleg Nesterov
do_execve() and ptrace_attach() return -EINTR if mutex_lock_interruptible(->cred_guard_mutex) fails. This is not right, change the code to return ERESTARTNOINTR. Perhaps we should also change proc_pid_attr_write().
