The overflow can happen when we are calling get_group_no_and_offset() which stores the group number in the ext4_grpblk_t type which is actually int. However when the blocknr is big enough the group number might be bigger than ext4_grpblk_t resulting in overflow. This will most likely happen with FITRIM default argument len = ULLONG_MAX. Fix this by using "end" variable instead of "start+len" as it is easier to get right and specifically check that the end is not beyond the end of the file system, so we are sure that the result of get_group_no_and_offset() will not overflow. Otherwise truncate it to the size of the file system. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The error message produced by the ext4_ext_rm_leaf() when we are removing blocks which accidentally ends up inside the existing extent, is not very helpful, because we would like to also know which extent did we collide with.

Since the commit 'Rewrite punch hole to use ext4_ext_remove_space()' reworked the punch hole implementation to use ext4_ext_remove_space() instead of ext4_ext_map_blocks(), we can remove the code which is no longer needed from the ext4_ext_map_blocks().

This commit rewrites ext4 punch hole implementation to use ext4_ext_remove_space() instead of its home gown way of doing this via ext4_ext_map_blocks(). There are several reasons for changing this. Firstly it is quite non obvious that punching hole needs to ext4_ext_map_blocks() to punch a hole, especially given that this function should map blocks, not unmap it. It also required a lot of new code in ext4_ext_map_blocks(). Secondly the design of it is not very effective. The reason is that we are trying to punch out blocks in ext4_ext_punch_hole() in opposite direction than in ext4_ext_rm_leaf() which causes the ext4_ext_rm_leaf() to iterate through the whole tree from the end to the start to find the requested extent for every extent we are going to punch out. And finally the current implementation does not use the existing code, but bring a lot of new code, which is IMO unnecessary since there already is some infrastructure we can use. Specifically ext4_ext_remove_space(). This commit changes ext4_ext_remove_space() to accept 'end' parameter so we can not only truncate to the end of file, but also remove the space in the middle of the file (punch a hole). Moreover, because the last block to punch out, might be in the middle of the extent, we have to split the extent at 'end + 1' so ext4_ext_rm_leaf() can easily either remove the whole fist part of split extent, or change its size. ext4_ext_remove_space() is then used to actually remove the space (extents) from within the hole, instead of ext4_ext_map_blocks(). Note that this also fix the issue with punch hole, where we would forget to remove empty index blocks from the extent tree, resulting in double free block error and file system corruption. This is simply because we now use different code path, where this problem does not exist. This has been tested with fsx running for several days and xfstests, plus xfstest #251 with '-o discard' run on the loop image (which converts discard requestes into punch hole to the backing file). All of it on 1K and 4K file system block size. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Normally, we have to issue a cache flush before we can update journal tail in journal superblock, effectively wiping out old transactions from the journal. So use the fact that during transaction commit we issue cache flush anyway and opportunistically push journal tail as far as we can. Since update of journal superblock is still costly (we have to use WRITE_FUA), we update log tail only if we can free significant amount of space.

All accesses to checkpointing entries in journal_head are protected by j_list_lock. Thus __jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint() doesn't really need bh_state lock. Also the only part of journal head that the rest of checkpointing code needs to check is jh->b_transaction which is safe to read under j_list_lock. So we can safely remove bh_state lock from all of checkpointing code which makes it considerably prettier. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

When we reach jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail(), there is no guarantee that checkpointed buffers are on a stable storage - especially if buffers were written out by jbd2_log_do_checkpoint(), they are likely to be only in disk's caches. Thus when we update journal superblock effectively removing old transaction from journal, this write of superblock can get to stable storage before those checkpointed buffers which can result in filesystem corruption after a crash. Thus we must unconditionally issue a cache flush before we update journal superblock in these cases. A similar problem can also occur if journal superblock is written only in disk's caches, other transaction starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log and power failure happens. Subsequent journal replay would still try to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update in-memory information only after that.

There are some log tail updates that are not protected by j_checkpoint_mutex. Some of these are harmless because they happen during startup or shutdown but updates in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() and jbd2_journal_flush() can really race with other log tail updates (e.g. someone doing jbd2_journal_flush() with someone running jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()). So protect all log tail updates with j_checkpoint_mutex. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

There are three case of updating journal superblock. In the first case, we want to mark journal as empty (setting s_sequence to 0), in the second case we want to update log tail, in the third case we want to update s_errno. Split these cases into separate functions. It makes the code slightly more straightforward and later patches will make the distinction even more important.

Explicitly test for an extent whose length is zero, and flag that as a corrupted extent. This avoids a kernel BUG_ON assertion failure. Tested: Without this patch, the file system image found in tests/f_ext_zero_len/image.gz in the latest e2fsprogs sources causes a kernel panic. With this patch, an ext4 file system error is noted instead, and the file system is marked as being corrupted. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42859Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org

We can clear PageWriteback on each page when the IO completes, but we can't release the references on the page until we convert any uninitialized extents. Without this patch, the use of the dioread_nolock mount option can break buffered writes, because extents may not be converted by the time a subsequent buffered read comes in; if the page is not in the page cache, a read will return zeros if the extent is still uninitialized. I tested this with a (temporary) patch that adds a call to msleep(1000) at the start of ext4_end_io_work(), to delay processing of each DIO-unwritten work queue item. With this msleep(), a simple workload of fallocate write fadvise read will fail without this patch, succeeds with it.

The following command line will leave the aio-stress process unkillable on an ext4 file system (in my case, mounted on /mnt/test): aio-stress -t 20 -s 10 -O -S -o 2 -I 1000 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.20 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.19 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.18 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.17 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.16 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.15 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.14 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.13 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.12 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.11 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.10 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.9 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.8 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.7 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.6 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.5 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.4 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.3 /mnt/test/aiostress.3561.4.2 This is using the aio-stress program from the xfstests test suite. That particular command line tells aio-stress to do random writes to 20 files from 20 threads (one thread per file). The files are NOT preallocated, so you will get writes to random offsets within the file, thus creating holes and extending i_size. It also opens the file with O_DIRECT and O_SYNC. On to the problem. When an I/O requires unwritten extent conversion, it is queued onto the completed_io_list for the ext4 inode. Two code paths will pull work items from this list. The first is the ext4_end_io_work routine, and the second is ext4_flush_completed_IO, which is called via the fsync path (and O_SYNC handling, as well). There are two issues I've found in these code paths. First, if the fsync path beats the work routine to a particular I/O, the work routine will free the io_end structure! It does not take into account the fact that the io_end may still be in use by the fsync path. I've fixed this issue by adding yet another IO_END flag, indicating that the io_end is being processed by the fsync path. The second problem is that the work routine will make an assignment to io->flag outside of the lock. I have witnessed this result in a hang at umount. Moving the flag setting inside the lock resolved that problem. The problem was introduced by commit b82e384c ("ext4: optimize locking for end_io extent conversion"), which first appeared in 3.2. As such, the fix should be backported to that release (probably along with the unwritten extent conversion race fix).

For extent-based files, you can perform DIO to holes, as mentioned in the comments in ext4_ext_direct_IO. However, that function passes DIO_SKIP_HOLES to __blockdev_direct_IO, which is *really* confusing to the uninitiated reader. The key, here, is that the get_block function passed in, ext4_get_block_write, completely ignores the create flag that is passed to it (the create flag is passed in from the direct I/O code, which uses the DIO_SKIP_HOLES flag to determine whether or not it should be cleared). This is a long-winded way of saying that the DIO_SKIP_HOLES flag is ultimately ignored. So let's remove it.

Processes hang forever on a sync-mounted ext2 file system that is mounted with the ext4 module (default in Fedora 16). I can reproduce this reliably by mounting an ext2 partition with "-o sync" and opening a new file an that partition with vim. vim will hang in "D" state forever. The same happens on ext4 without a journal. I am attaching a small patch here that solves this issue for me. In the sync mounted case without a journal, ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() may call sync_dirty_buffer(), which can't be called with buffer lock held.

When resizing file system in the way that the new size of the file system is still in the same group (no new groups are added), then we can hit a BUG_ON in ext4_alloc_group_tables() BUG_ON(flex_gd->count == 0 || group_data == NULL); because flex_gd->count is zero. The reason is the missing check for such case, so the code always extend the last group fully and then attempt to add more groups, but at that time n_blocks_count is actually smaller than o_blocks_count. It can be easily reproduced like this: mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 /dev/sda 30M mount /dev/sda /mnt/test resize2fs /dev/sda 50M Fix this by checking whether the resize happens within the singe group and only add that many blocks into the last group to satisfy user request. Then o_blocks_count == n_blocks_count and the resize will exit successfully without and attempt to add more groups into the fs. Also fix mixing together block number and blocks count which might be confusing and can easily lead to off-by-one errors (but it is actually not the case here since the two occurrence of this mix-up will cancel each other).

The following comment in ext4_end_io_dio caught my attention: /* XXX: probably should move into the real I/O completion handler */ inode_dio_done(inode); The truncate code takes i_mutex, then calls inode_dio_wait. Because the ext4 code path above will end up dropping the mutex before it is reacquired by the worker thread that does the extent conversion, it seems to me that the truncate can happen out of order. Jan Kara mentioned that this might result in error messages in the system logs, but that should be the extent of the "damage." The fix is pretty straight-forward: don't call inode_dio_done until the extent conversion is complete.
