To help assuage the fears of those who think the NSA can introduce a massive hack into the instruction decode and out of order execution engine in the CPU without hundreds of Intel engineers knowing about it (only one of which woud need to have the conscience and courage of Edward Snowden to spill the beans to the public), use the HWRNG to initialize the SHA starting value, instead of xor'ing it in afterwards.

The variable 'entropy_bytes' is set from an expression that actually counts bits. Fortunately it's also only compared to values that also count bits. Rename it accordingly. Signed-off-by: Greg Price <price@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

With this we handle "reserved" in just one place. As a bonus the code becomes less nested, and the "wakeup_write" flag variable becomes unnecessary. The variable "flags" was already unused. This code behaves identically to the previous version except in two pathological cases that don't occur. If the argument "nbytes" is already less than "min", then we didn't previously enforce "min". If r->limit is false while "reserved" is nonzero, then we previously applied "reserved" in checking whether we had enough bits, even though we don't apply it to actually limit how many we take. The callers of account() never exercise either of these cases. Before the previous commit, it was possible for "nbytes" to be less than "min" if userspace chose a pathological configuration, but no longer. Cc: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz> Cc: "H.

We use this value in a few places other than its literal meaning, in particular in _xfer_secondary_pool() as a minimum number of bits to pull from the input pool at a time into either output pool. It doesn't make sense to pull more bits than the whole size of an output pool. We could and possibly should separate the quantities "how much should the input pool have to have to wake up /dev/random readers" and "how much should we transfer from the input to an output pool at a time", but nobody is likely to be sad they can't set the first quantity to more than 1024 bits, so for now just limit them both.

This logic is exactly equivalent to the old logic, but it should be easier to see what it's doing. The equivalence depends on one fact from outside this function: when 'r->limit' is false, 'reserved' is zero. (Well, two facts; the other is that 'reserved' is never negative.)

The loop condition never changes until just before a break, so we might as well write it as a constant. Also since a996996d ("random: drop weird m_time/a_time manipulation") we don't do anything after the loop finishes, so the 'break's might as well return directly. Some other simplifications. There should be no change in behavior introduced by this commit. Signed-off-by: Greg Price <price@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

While we are at it, don't do kmap() under kmap_atomic(), *especially* for a page we'd allocated with GFP_KERNEL. It's spelled "page_address", and had that been more than that, we'd have a real trouble - kmap_high() can block, and doing that while holding kmap_atomic() is a Bad Idea(tm).

It actually goes back to 2004 ([PATCH] Concurrent O_SYNC write support) when sync_page_range() had been introduced; generic_file_write{,v}() correctly synced pos_after_write - written .. pos_after_write - 1 but generic_file_aio_write() synced pos_before_write .. pos_before_write + written - 1 instead. Which is not the same thing with O_APPEND, obviously. A couple of years later correct variant had been killed off when everything switched to use of generic_file_aio_write(). All users of generic_file_aio_write() are affected, and the same bug has been copied into other instances of ->aio_write(). The fix is trivial; the only subtle point is that generic_write_sync() ought to be inlined to avoid calculations useless for the majority of calls. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

When using a mix of compressed file extents and prealloc extents, it is possible to fill a page of a file with random, garbage data from some unrelated previous use of the page, instead of a sequence of zeroes. A simple sequence of steps to get into such case, taken from the test case I made for xfstests, is: _scratch_mkfs _scratch_mount "-o compress-force=lzo" $XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "pwrite -S 0x06 -b 18670 266978 18670" $SCRATCH_MNT/foobar $XFS_IO_PROG -c "falloc 26450 665194" $SCRATCH_MNT/foobar $XFS_IO_PROG -c "truncate 542872" $SCRATCH_MNT/foobar $XFS_IO_PROG -c "fsync" $SCRATCH_MNT/foobar This results in the following file items in the fs tree: item 4 key (257 INODE_ITEM 0) itemoff 15879 itemsize 160 inode generation 6 transid 6 size 542872 block group 0 mode 100600 item 5 key (257 INODE_REF 256) itemoff 15863 itemsize 16 inode ref index 2 namelen 6 name: foobar item 6 key (257 EXTENT_DATA 0) itemoff 15810 itemsize 53 extent data disk byte 0 nr 0 gen 6 extent data offset 0 nr 24576 ram 266240 extent compression 0 item 7 key (257 EXTENT_DATA 24576) itemoff 15757 itemsize 53 prealloc data disk byte 12849152 nr 241664 gen 6 prealloc data offset 0 nr 241664 item 8 key (257 EXTENT_DATA 266240) itemoff 15704 itemsize 53 extent data disk byte 12845056 nr 4096 gen 6 extent data offset 0 nr 20480 ram 20480 extent compression 2 item 9 key (257 EXTENT_DATA 286720) itemoff 15651 itemsize 53 prealloc data disk byte 13090816 nr 405504 gen 6 prealloc data offset 0 nr 258048 The on disk extent at offset 266240 (which corresponds to 1 single disk block), contains 5 compressed chunks of file data. Each of the first 4 compress 4096 bytes of file data, while the last one only compresses 3024 bytes of file data. Therefore a read into the file region [285648 ; 286720[ (length = 4096 - 3024 = 1072 bytes) should always return zeroes (our next extent is a prealloc one). The solution here is the compression code path to zero the remaining (untouched) bytes of the last page it uncompressed data into, as the information about how much space the file data consumes in the last page is not known in the upper layer fs/btrfs/extent_io.c:__do_readpage(). In __do_readpage we were correctly zeroing the remainder of the page but only if it corresponds to the last page of the inode and if the inode's size is not a multiple of the page size. This would cause not only returning random data on reads, but also permanently storing random data when updating parts of the region that should be zeroed. For the example above, it means updating a single byte in the region [285648 ; 286720[ would store that byte correctly but also store random data on disk. A test case for xfstests follows soon.

A user reported a 100% cpu hang with my new delayed ref code. Turns out I forgot to increase the count check when we can't run a delayed ref because of the tree mod log. If we can't run any delayed refs during this there is no point in continuing to look, and we need to break out.

Wang noticed that he was failing btrfs/030 even though me and Filipe couldn't reproduce. Turns out this is because Wang didn't have CONFIG_BTRFS_ASSERT set, which meant that a key part of Filipe's original patch was not being built in. This appears to be a mess up with merging Filipe's patch as it does not exist in his original patch. Fix this by changing how we make sure del_waiting_dir_move asserts that it did not error and take the function out of the ifdef check. This makes btrfs/030 pass with the assert on or off.
