commit 69eba10e upstream. In olden times the snd_hda_param_read() function always set "*start_id" but in 2007 we introduced a new return and it causes uninitialized data bugs in a couple of the callers: print_codec_info() and hdmi_parse_codec().

commit d70a1b98 upstream. The Arcam rPAC seems to have the same problem - whenever anything (alsamixer, udevd, 3.9+ kernel from 60af3d03, ..) attempts to access mixer / control interface of the card, the firmware "locks up" the entire device, resulting in SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS failed (-5): Input/output error from alsa-lib. Other operating systems can somehow read the mixer (there seems to be playback volume/mute), but any manipulation is ignored by the device (which has hardware volume controls).

commit bb34cb6b upstream. bus_find_device_by_name() acquires a device reference which is never released. This results in an object leak, which on older kernels results in failure to release all resources of PCI devices. libvirt uses drivers_probe to re-attach devices to the host after assignment and is therefore a common trigger for this leak. Example: # cd /sys/bus/pci/ # dmesg -C # echo 1 > devices/0000\:01\:00.0/sriov_numvfs # echo 0 > devices/0000\:01\:00.0/sriov_numvfs # dmesg | grep 01:10 pci 0000:01:10.0: [8086:10ca] type 00 class 0x020000 kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): kobject_add_internal: parent: '0000:00:01.0', set: 'devices' kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): kobject_uevent_env kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): fill_kobj_path: path = '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:10.0' kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): kobject_uevent_env kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): fill_kobj_path: path = '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:10.0' kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): kobject_uevent_env kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): fill_kobj_path: path = '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:10.0' kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): kobject_cleanup, parent (null) kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79cd0a8): calling ktype release kobject: '0000:01:10.0': free name [kobject freed as expected] # dmesg -C # echo 1 > devices/0000\:01\:00.0/sriov_numvfs # echo 0000:01:10.0 > drivers_probe # echo 0 > devices/0000\:01\:00.0/sriov_numvfs # dmesg | grep 01:10 pci 0000:01:10.0: [8086:10ca] type 00 class 0x020000 kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79ce0a8): kobject_add_internal: parent: '0000:00:01.0', set: 'devices' kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79ce0a8): kobject_uevent_env kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79ce0a8): fill_kobj_path: path = '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:10.0' kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79ce0a8): kobject_uevent_env kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79ce0a8): fill_kobj_path: path = '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:10.0' kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79ce0a8): kobject_uevent_env kobject: '0000:01:10.0' (ffff8801d79ce0a8): fill_kobj_path: path = '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:10.0' [no free] Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>

commit 1ddf0b1b upstream. In Linux 3.18 and below, GCC hoists the lsl instructions in the pvclock code all the way to the beginning of __vdso_clock_gettime, slowing the non-paravirt case significantly. For unknown reasons, presumably related to the removal of a branch, the performance issue is gone as of e76b027e x86,vdso: Use LSL unconditionally for vgetcpu but I don't trust GCC enough to expect the problem to stay fixed. There should be no correctness issue, because the __getcpu calls in __vdso_vlock_gettime were never necessary in the first place. Note to stable maintainers: In 3.18 and below, depending on configuration, gcc 4.9.2 generates code like this: 9c3: 44 0f 03 e8 lsl %ax,%r13d 9c7: 45 89 eb mov %r13d,%r11d 9ca: 0f 03 d8 lsl %ax,%ebx This patch won't apply as is to any released kernel, but I'll send a trivial backported version if needed. [ Backported by Andy Lutomirski. Should apply to all affected versions. This fixes a functionality bug as well as a performance bug: buggy kernels can infinite loop in __vdso_clock_gettime on affected compilers.

commit 394f56fe upstream. The theory behind vdso randomization is that it's mapped at a random offset above the top of the stack. To avoid wasting a page of memory for an extra page table, the vdso isn't supposed to extend past the lowest PMD into which it can fit. Other than that, the address should be a uniformly distributed address that meets all of the alignment requirements. The current algorithm is buggy: the vdso has about a 50% probability of being at the very end of a PMD. The current algorithm also has a decent chance of failing outright due to incorrect handling of the case where the top of the stack is near the top of its PMD. This fixes the implementation. The paxtest estimate of vdso "randomisation" improves from 11 bits to 18 bits. (Disclaimer: I don't know what the paxtest code is actually calculating.) It's worth noting that this algorithm is inherently biased: the vdso is more likely to end up near the end of its PMD than near the beginning. Ideally we would either nix the PMD sharing requirement or jointly randomize the vdso and the stack to reduce the bias. In the mean time, this is a considerable improvement with basically no risk of compatibility issues, since the allowed outputs of the algorithm are unchanged. As an easy test, doing this: for i in `seq 10000` do grep -P vdso /proc/self/maps |cut -d- -f1 done |sort |uniq -d used to produce lots of output (1445 lines on my most recent run). A tiny subset looks like this: 7fffdfffe000 7fffe01fe000 7fffe05fe000 7fffe07fe000 7fffe09fe000 7fffe0bfe000 7fffe0dfe000 Note the suspicious fe000 endings. With the fix, I get a much more palatable 76 repeated addresses.

commit 606185b2 upstream. This is a static checker fix. We write some binary settings to the sysfs file. One of the settings is the "->startup_profile". There isn't any checking to make sure it fits into the pyra->profile_settings[] array in the profile_activated() function. I added a check to pyra_sysfs_write_settings() in both places because I wasn't positive that the other callers were correct.

commit d1c7e29e upstream. Before ->start() is called, bufsize size is set to HID_MIN_BUFFER_SIZE, 64 bytes. While processing the IRQ, we were asking to receive up to wMaxInputLength bytes, which can be bigger than 64 bytes. Later, when ->start is run, a proper bufsize will be calculated. Given wMaxInputLength is said to be unreliable in other part of the code, set to receive only what we can even if it results in truncated reports.

commit 6296f4a8 upstream. Current driver uses a common buffer for reading reports either synchronously in i2c_hid_get_raw_report() and asynchronously in the interrupt handler. There is race condition if an interrupt arrives immediately after the report is received in i2c_hid_get_raw_report(); the common buffer is modified by the interrupt handler with the new report and then i2c_hid_get_raw_report() proceed using wrong data. Fix it by using a separate buffers for synchronous reports.

commit cc4f14aa upstream.

It's safe to remove extra "+1" because sg_res is only used to calculate page size now.

commit f38aed97 upstream. The logic of vfree()'ing vol->upd_buf is tied to vol->updating. In ubi_start_update() vol->updating is set long before vmalloc()'ing vol->upd_buf. If we encounter a write failure in ubi_start_update() before vmalloc() the UBI device release function will try to vfree() vol->upd_buf because vol->updating is set. Fix this by allocating vol->upd_buf directly after setting vol->updating.

commit 027bc8b0 upstream. On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk just before a write hanging the system. On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by default.

commit 7ae9cb81 upstream. Currently trying to use pstore on at least ARMs can hang as we're mapping the peristent RAM with pgprot_noncached(). On ARMs, pgprot_noncached() will actually make the memory strongly ordered, and as the atomic operations pstore uses are implementation defined for strongly ordered memory, they may not work. So basically atomic operations have undefined behavior on ARM for device or strongly ordered memory types. Let's fix the issue by using write-combine variants for mappings. This corresponds to normal, non-cacheable memory on ARM. For many other architectures, this change does not change the mapping type as by default we have: #define pgprot_writecombine pgprot_noncached The reason why pgprot_noncached() was originaly used for pstore is because Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> had observed lost debug prints right before a device hanging write operation on some systems. For the platforms supporting pgprot_noncached(), we can add a an optional configuration option to support that. But let's get pstore working first before adding new features.

commit 36e81648 upstream. Commit 6ac665c6 ("PCI: rewrite PCI BAR reading code") masked off low-order bits from 'l', but not from 'sz'. Both are passed to pci_size(), which compares 'base == maxbase' to check for read-only BARs. The masking of 'l' means that comparison will never be 'true', so the check for read-only BARs no longer works. Resolve this by also masking off the low-order bits of 'sz' before passing it into pci_size() as 'maxbase'. With this change, pci_size() will once again catch the problems that have been encountered to date: - AGP aperture BAR of AMD-7xx host bridges: if the AGP window is disabled, this BAR is read-only and read as 0x00000008 [1] - BARs 0-4 of ALi IDE controllers can be non-zero and read-only [1] - Intel Sandy Bridge - Thermal Management Controller [8086:0103]; BAR 0 returning 0xfed98004 [2] - Intel Xeon E5 v3/Core i7 Power Control Unit [8086:2fc0]; Bar 0 returning 0x00001a [3] Link: [1] https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/drivers/pci/probe.c?id=1307ef6621991f1c4bc3cec1b5a4ebd6fd3d66b9 ("PCI: probing read-only BARs" (pre-git)) Link: [2] https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43331 Link: [3] https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85991Reported-by: William Unruh <unruh@physics.ubc.ca> Reported-by: Martin Lucina <martin@lucina.net> Signed-off-by: Myron Stowe <myron.stowe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> CC: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>

commit 8117ac6a upstream. Currently, when going idle, we set the flag indicating that we are in nap mode (paca->kvm_hstate.hwthread_state) and then execute the nap (or sleep or rvwinkle) instruction, all with the MMU on. This is bad for two reasons: (a) the architecture specifies that those instructions must be executed with the MMU off, and in fact with only the SF, HV, ME and possibly RI bits set, and (b) this introduces a race, because as soon as we set the flag, another thread can switch the MMU to a guest context. If the race is lost, this thread will typically start looping on relocation-on ISIs at 0xc...4400. This fixes it by setting the MSR as required by the architecture before setting the flag or executing the nap/sleep/rvwinkle instruction.

commit 136f49b9 upstream. For buffer write, page lock will be got in write_begin and released in write_end, in ocfs2_write_end_nolock(), before it unlock the page in ocfs2_free_write_ctxt(), it calls ocfs2_run_deallocs(), this will ask for the read lock of journal->j_trans_barrier. Holding page lock and ask for journal->j_trans_barrier breaks the locking order. This will cause a deadlock with journal commit threads, ocfs2cmt will get write lock of journal->j_trans_barrier first, then it wakes up kjournald2 to do the commit work, at last it waits until done. To commit journal, kjournald2 needs flushing data first, it needs get the cache page lock. Since some ocfs2 cluster locks are holding by write process, this deadlock may hung the whole cluster. unlock pages before ocfs2_run_deallocs() can fix the locking order, also put unlock before ocfs2_commit_trans() to make page lock is unlocked before j_trans_barrier to preserve unlocking order.

commit 0e953255 upstream. Move rtc register to be later than hardware initialization. The reason is that devm_rtc_device_register() will do read_time() which is a callback accessing hardware.

commit 6424babf upstream. During file system stress testing on 3.10 and 3.12 based kernels, the umount command occasionally hung in fsnotify_unmount_inodes in the section of code: spin_lock(&inode->i_lock); if (inode->i_state & (I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE|I_NEW)) { spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock); continue; } As this section of code holds the global inode_sb_list_lock, eventually the system hangs trying to acquire the lock. Multiple crash dumps showed: The inode->i_state == 0x60 and i_count == 0 and i_sb_list would point back at itself. As this is not the value of list upon entry to the function, the kernel never exits the loop. To help narrow down problem, the call to list_del_init in inode_sb_list_del was changed to list_del. This poisons the pointers in the i_sb_list and causes a kernel to panic if it transverse a freed inode. Subsequent stress testing paniced in fsnotify_unmount_inodes at the bottom of the list_for_each_entry_safe loop showing next_i had become free. We believe the root cause of the problem is that next_i is being freed during the window of time that the list_for_each_entry_safe loop temporarily releases inode_sb_list_lock to call fsnotify and fsnotify_inode_delete. The code in fsnotify_unmount_inodes attempts to prevent the freeing of inode and next_i by calling __iget. However, the code doesn't do the __iget call on next_i if i_count == 0 or if i_state & (I_FREEING | I_WILL_FREE) The patch addresses this issue by advancing next_i in the above two cases until we either find a next_i which we can __iget or we reach the end of the list. This makes the handling of next_i more closely match the handling of the variable "inode." The time to reproduce the hang is highly variable (from hours to days.) We ran the stress test on a 3.10 kernel with the proposed patch for a week without failure. During list_for_each_entry_safe, next_i is becoming free causing the loop to never terminate. Advance next_i in those cases where __iget is not done.

commit b5a8cad3 upstream. [stable 3.12 note] This commit was supposed to fix a completely other issue. But in 3.12, with commit f72e7dcd (mm: let mm_find_pmd fix buggy race with THP fault), we need this commit as well (it fixes the issue as a by-product). Hugh Dickins writes: <== citation starts here> Fine for this to go in, but there is one catch, which I discovered when backporting to v3.11: it needed one more hunk. I haven't checked your base tree, but if this applies then I believe you need it - most of the time no problem, but it can case page migration to fail to find a migration entry it inserted earlier, then BUG_ON(!PageLocked(p)) in migration_entry_to_page() soon after. Here's what I wrote back then: Note on rebase to v3.11: added a hunk to replace the use of mm_find_pmd() in page_check_address_pmd(). This call had been similarly replaced by the time of my v3.16 commit, in Kirill Shutemov's v3.15 b5a8cad3 ("thp: close race between split and zap huge pages"): which we do not need as such, since it's fixing v3.13 117b0791 ("mm, thp: move ptl taking inside page_check_address_pmd()"), from a split page-table-lock series we are not backporting. But without this additional hunk, rmap sometimes broke when the new semantic for mm_find_pmd() was used here. <== end of citation> But instead of appending hunks to commits, I am taking a full, backported version of commit b5a8cad3 with this note prepended. So the changelog of b5a8cad3 is left below, but does not apply to 3.12 yet. [=== stable 3.12 note ends here] Sasha Levin has reported two THP BUGs[1][2]. I believe both of them have the same root cause. Let's look to them one by one. The first bug[1] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1829!". It's BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) in __split_huge_page(). From my testing I see that page_mapcount() is higher than mapcount here. I think it happens due to race between zap_huge_pmd() and page_check_address_pmd(). page_check_address_pmd() misses PMD which is under zap: CPU0 CPU1 zap_huge_pmd() pmdp_get_and_clear() __split_huge_page() anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach() __split_huge_page_splitting() page_check_address_pmd() mm_find_pmd() /* * We check if PMD present without taking ptl: no * serialization against zap_huge_pmd(). We miss this PMD, * it's not accounted to 'mapcount' in __split_huge_page(). */ pmd_present(pmd) == 0 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) // CRASH!!! page_remove_rmap(page) atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount) The second bug[2] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1371!". It's VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page) in zap_huge_pmd(). This happens in similar way: CPU0 CPU1 zap_huge_pmd() pmdp_get_and_clear() page_remove_rmap(page) atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount) __split_huge_page() anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach() __split_huge_page_splitting() page_check_address_pmd() mm_find_pmd() pmd_present(pmd) == 0 /* The same comment as above */ /* * No crash this time since we already decremented page->_mapcount in * zap_huge_pmd(). */ BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) /* * We split the compound page here into small pages without * serialization against zap_huge_pmd() */ __split_huge_page_refcount() VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page); // CRASH!!! So my understanding the problem is pmd_present() check in mm_find_pmd() without taking page table lock. The bug was introduced by me commit with commit 117b0791. Sorry for that. :( Let's open code mm_find_pmd() in page_check_address_pmd() and do the check under page table lock. Note that __page_check_address() does the same for PTE entires if sync != 0. I've stress tested split and zap code paths for 36+ hours by now and don't see crashes with the patch applied. Before it took <20 min to trigger the first bug and few hours for second one (if we ignore first).

commit c9b08884 upstream. The current code simply assumes Intel Arch PerfMon v2+ to have the IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES MSR; the SDM specifies that we should check CPUID[1].ECX[15] (aka, FEATURE_PDCM) instead. This was found by KVM which implements v2+ but didn't provide the capabilities MSR. Change the code to DTRT; KVM will also implement the MSR and return 0.

commit f72e7dcd upstream. Trinity has reported: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018 IP: __lock_acquire (kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3070 (discriminator 1)) CPU: 6 PID: 16173 Comm: trinity-c364 Tainted: G W 3.15.0-rc1-next-20140415-sasha-00020-gaa90d09 #398 lock_acquire (arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602) _raw_spin_lock (include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:143 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:151) remove_migration_pte (mm/migrate.c:137) rmap_walk (mm/rmap.c:1628 mm/rmap.c:1699) remove_migration_ptes (mm/migrate.c:224) migrate_pages (mm/migrate.c:922 mm/migrate.c:960 mm/migrate.c:1126) migrate_misplaced_page (mm/migrate.c:1733) __handle_mm_fault (mm/memory.c:3762 mm/memory.c:3812 mm/memory.c:3925) handle_mm_fault (mm/memory.c:3948) __get_user_pages (mm/memory.c:1851) __mlock_vma_pages_range (mm/mlock.c:255) __mm_populate (mm/mlock.c:711) SyS_mlockall (include/linux/mm.h:1799 mm/mlock.c:817 mm/mlock.c:791) I believe this comes about because, whereas collapsing and splitting THP functions take anon_vma lock in write mode (which excludes concurrent rmap walks), faulting THP functions (write protection and misplaced NUMA) do not - and mostly they do not need to. But they do use a pmdp_clear_flush(), set_pmd_at() sequence which, for an instant (indeed, for a long instant, given the inter-CPU TLB flush in there), leaves *pmd neither present not trans_huge. Which can confuse a concurrent rmap walk, as when removing migration ptes, seen in the dumped trace. Although that rmap walk has a 4k page to insert, anon_vmas containing THPs are in no way segregated from 4k-page anon_vmas, so the 4k-intent mm_find_pmd() does need to cope with that instant when a trans_huge pmd is temporarily absent. I don't think we need strengthen the locking at the THP end: it's easily handled with an ACCESS_ONCE() before testing both conditions. And since mm_find_pmd() had only one caller who wanted a THP rather than a pmd, let's slightly repurpose it to fail when it hits a THP or non-present pmd, and open code split_huge_page_address() again.

commit 678886bd upstream. When we abort a transaction we iterate over all the ranges marked as dirty in fs_info->freed_extents[0] and fs_info->freed_extents[1], clear them from those trees, add them back (unpin) to the free space caches and, if the fs was mounted with "-o discard", perform a discard on those regions. Also, after adding the regions to the free space caches, a fitrim ioctl call can see those ranges in a block group's free space cache and perform a discard on the ranges, so the same issue can happen without "-o discard" as well. This causes corruption, affecting one or multiple btree nodes (in the worst case leaving the fs unmountable) because some of those ranges (the ones in the fs_info->pinned_extents tree) correspond to btree nodes/leafs that are referred by the last committed super block - breaking the rule that anything that was committed by a transaction is untouched until the next transaction commits successfully. I ran into this while running in a loop (for several hours) the fstest that I recently submitted: [PATCH] fstests: add btrfs test to stress chunk allocation/removal and fstrim The corruption always happened when a transaction aborted and then fsck complained like this: _check_btrfs_filesystem: filesystem on /dev/sdc is inconsistent *** fsck.btrfs output *** Check tree block failed, want=94945280, have=0 Check tree block failed, want=94945280, have=0 Check tree block failed, want=94945280, have=0 Check tree block failed, want=94945280, have=0 Check tree block failed, want=94945280, have=0 read block failed check_tree_block Couldn't open file system In this case 94945280 corresponded to the root of a tree. Using frace what I observed was the following sequence of steps happened: 1) transaction N started, fs_info->pinned_extents pointed to fs_info->freed_extents[0]; 2) node/eb 94945280 is created; 3) eb is persisted to disk; 4) transaction N commit starts, fs_info->pinned_extents now points to fs_info->freed_extents[1], and transaction N completes; 5) transaction N + 1 starts; 6) eb is COWed, and btrfs_free_tree_block() called for this eb; 7) eb range (94945280 to 94945280 + 16Kb) is added to fs_info->pinned_extents (fs_info->freed_extents[1]); 8) Something goes wrong in transaction N + 1, like hitting ENOSPC for example, and the transaction is aborted, turning the fs into readonly mode. The stack trace I got for example: [112065.253935] [<ffffffff8140c7b6>] dump_stack+0x4d/0x66 [112065.254271] [<ffffffff81042984>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7f/0x98 [112065.254567] [<ffffffffa0325990>] ? __btrfs_abort_transaction+0x50/0x10b [btrfs] [112065.261674] [<ffffffff810429e5>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x48/0x50 [112065.261922] [<ffffffffa032949e>] ? btrfs_free_path+0x26/0x29 [btrfs] [112065.262211] [<ffffffffa0325990>] __btrfs_abort_transaction+0x50/0x10b [btrfs] [112065.262545] [<ffffffffa036b1d6>] btrfs_remove_chunk+0x537/0x58b [btrfs] [112065.262771] [<ffffffffa033840f>] btrfs_delete_unused_bgs+0x1de/0x21b [btrfs] [112065.263105] [<ffffffffa0343106>] cleaner_kthread+0x100/0x12f [btrfs] (...)

Fix this by not performing a discard and not adding the ranges to the free space caches - it's useless from this point since the fs is now in readonly mode and we won't write free space caches to disk anymore (otherwise we would leak space) nor any new superblock. By not adding the ranges to the free space caches, it prevents other code paths from allocating that space and write to it as well, therefore being safer and simpler. This isn't a new problem, as it's been present since 2011 (git commit acce952b).

commit a2804695 upstream. We use the modified list to keep track of which extents have been modified so we know which ones are candidates for logging at fsync() time. Newly modified extents are added to the list at modification time, around the same time the ordered extent is created. We do this so that we don't have to wait for ordered extents to complete before we know what we need to log. The problem is when something like this happens log extent 0-4k on inode 1 copy csum for 0-4k from ordered extent into log sync log commit transaction log some other extent on inode 1 ordered extent for 0-4k completes and adds itself onto modified list again log changed extents see ordered extent for 0-4k has already been logged at this point we assume the csum has been copied sync log crash On replay we will see the extent 0-4k in the log, drop the original 0-4k extent which is the same one that we are replaying which also drops the csum, and then we won't find the csum in the log for that bytenr. This of course causes us to have errors about not having csums for certain ranges of our inode. So remove the modified list manipulation in unpin_extent_cache, any modified extents should have been added well before now, and we don't want them re-logged. This fixes my test that I could reliably reproduce this problem with.

Instead of encrypting and decrypting lower files, it provides a unified view of the encrypted files in the lower filesystem. The presence of the ecryptfs_encrypted_view mount option is intended to force a read-only mount and modifying files is not supported when the feature is in use. See the following commit for more information: e77a56dd [PATCH] eCryptfs: Encrypted passthrough This patch forces the mount to be read-only when the ecryptfs_encrypted_view mount option is specified by setting the MS_RDONLY flag on the superblock. Additionally, this patch removes some broken logic in ecryptfs_open() that attempted to prevent modifications of files when the encrypted view feature was in use. The check in ecryptfs_open() was not sufficient to prevent file modifications using system calls that do not operate on a file descriptor.
