2023-07-29ext4: drop EXT4_MF_FS_ABORTED flagJan Kara
EXT4_MF_FS_ABORTED flag has practically the same intent as EXT4_FLAGS_SHUTDOWN flag. The shutdown flag is checked in many more places than the aborted flag which is mostly the historical artifact where we were relying on SB_RDONLY checks instead of the aborted flag checks. There are only three places - ext4_sync_file(), __ext4_remount(), and mballoc debug code - which check aborted flag and not shutdown flag and this is arguably a bug. Avoid these inconsistencies by removing EXT4_MF_FS_ABORTED flag and using EXT4_FLAGS_SHUTDOWN everywhere.

Currently ext4_forced_shutdown() takes struct ext4_sb_info but most callers need to get it from struct super_block anyway. So just pass in struct super_block to save all callers from some boilerplate code. No functional changes.

2023-05-30ext4: fix fsync for non-directoriesJan Kara
Commit e360c6ed7274 ("ext4: Drop special handling of journalled data from ext4_sync_file()") simplified ext4_sync_file() by dropping special handling of journalled data mode as it was not needed anymore. However that branch was also used for directories and symlinks and since the fastcommit code does not track metadata changes to non-regular files, the change has caused e.g. fsync(2) on directories to not commit transaction as it should. Fix the problem by adding handling for non-regular files.

ext4 when got converted to iomap for dio, it copied __generic_file_fsync implementation to avoid taking inode_lock in order to avoid any deadlock (since iomap takes an inode_lock while calling generic_write_sync()). The previous patch already added generic_buffers_fsync*() which does not take any inode_lock(). Hence kill the redundant code and use generic_buffers_fsync_noflush() function instead.

2020-10-21ext4: main fast-commit commit pathHarshad Shirwadkar
This patch adds main fast commit commit path handlers. The overall patch can be divided into two inter-related parts: (A) Metadata updates tracking This part consists of helper functions to track changes that need to be committed during a commit operation. These updates are maintained by Ext4 in different in-memory queues. Following are the APIs and their short description that are implemented in this patch: - ext4_fc_track_link/unlink/creat() - Track unlink. link and creat operations - ext4_fc_track_range() - Track changed logical block offsets inodes - ext4_fc_track_inode() - Track inodes - ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() - Mark file system fast commit ineligible() - ext4_fc_start_update() / ext4_fc_stop_update() / ext4_fc_start_ineligible() / ext4_fc_stop_ineligible() These functions are useful for co-ordinating inode updates with commits. (B) Main commit Path This part consists of functions to convert updates tracked in in-memory data structures into on-disk commits. Function ext4_fc_commit() is the main entry point to commit path.

2020-06-03ext4: fix race between ext4_sync_parent() and rename()Eric Biggers
'igrab(d_inode(dentry->d_parent))' without holding dentry->d_lock is broken because without d_lock, d_parent can be concurrently changed due to a rename(). Then if the old directory is immediately deleted, old d_parent->inode can be NULL. That causes a NULL dereference in igrab(). To fix this, use dget_parent() to safely grab a reference to the parent dentry, which pins the inode. This also eliminates the need to use d_find_any_alias() other than for the initial inode, as we no longer throw away the dentry at each step. This is an extremely hard race to hit, but it is possible. Adding a udelay() in between the reads of ->d_parent and its ->d_inode makes it reproducible on a no-journal filesystem using the following program: #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> int main() { if (fork()) { for (;;) { mkdir("dir1", 0700); int fd = open("dir1/file", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_SYNC); write(fd, "X", 1); close(fd); } } else { mkdir("dir2", 0700); for (;;) { rename("dir1/file", "dir2/file"); rmdir("dir1"); } } } Fixes: d59729f4e794 ("ext4: fix races in ext4_sync_parent()") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200506183140.541194-1-ebiggers@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

2019-11-05ext4: update ext4_sync_file() to not use __generic_file_fsync()Matthew Bobrowski
When the filesystem is created without a journal, we eventually call into __generic_file_fsync() in order to write out all the modified in-core data to the permanent storage device. This function happens to try and obtain an inode_lock() while synchronizing the files buffer and it's associated metadata. Generally, this is fine, however it becomes a problem when there is higher level code that has already obtained an inode_lock() as this leads to a recursive lock situation. This case is especially true when porting across direct I/O to iomap infrastructure as we obtain an inode_lock() early on in the I/O within ext4_dio_write_iter() and hold it until the I/O has been completed. Consequently, to not run into this specific issue, we move away from calling into __generic_file_fsync() and perform the necessary synchronization tasks within ext4_sync_file().

2019-01-31Revert "ext4: use ext4_write_inode() when fsyncing w/o a journal"Theodore Ts'o
This reverts commit ad211f3e94b314a910d4af03178a0b52a7d1ee0a. As Jan Kara pointed out, this change was unsafe since it means we lose the call to sync_mapping_buffers() in the nojournal case. The original point of the commit was avoid taking the inode mutex (since it causes a lockdep warning in generic/113); but we need the mutex in order to call sync_mapping_buffers(). The real fix to this problem was discussed here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181025150540.259281-4-bvanassche@acm.org The proposed patch was to fix a syzbot complaint, but the problem can also demonstrated via "kvm-xfstests -c nojournal generic/113". Multiple solutions were discused in the e-mail thread, but none have landed in the kernel as of this writing. Anyway, commit ad211f3e94b314 is absolutely the wrong way to suppress the lockdep, so revert it.

In no-journal mode, we previously used __generic_file_fsync() in no-journal mode.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2013-06-04ext4: defer clearing of PageWriteback after extent conversionJan Kara
Currently PageWriteback bit gets cleared from put_io_page() called from ext4_end_bio(). This is somewhat inconvenient as extent tree is not fully updated at that time (unwritten extents are not marked as written) so we cannot read the data back yet. This design was dictated by lock ordering as we cannot start a transaction while PageWriteback bit is set (we could easily deadlock with ext4_da_writepages()). But now that we use transaction reservation for extent conversion, locking issues are solved and we can move PageWriteback bit clearing after extent conversion is done. As a result we can remove wait for unwritten extent conversion from ext4_sync_file() because it already implicitely happens through wait_on_page_writeback(). We implement deferring of PageWriteback clearing by queueing completed bios to appropriate io_end and processing all the pages when io_end is going to be freed instead of at the moment ext4_io_end() is called.

2013-04-03ext4/jbd2: don't wait (forever) for stale tid caused by wraparoundTheodore Ts'o
In the case where an inode has a very stale transaction id (tid) in i_datasync_tid or i_sync_tid, it's possible that after a very large (2**31) number of transactions, that the tid number space might wrap, causing tid_geq()'s calculations to fail. Commit deeeaf13 "jbd2: fix fsync() tid wraparound bug", later modified by commit e7b04ac0 "jbd2: don't wake kjournald unnecessarily", attempted to fix this problem, but it only avoided kjournald spinning forever by fixing the logic in jbd2_log_start_commit(). Unfortunately, in the codepaths in fs/ext4/fsync.c and fs/ext4/inode.c that might call jbd2_log_start_commit() with a stale tid, those functions will subsequently call jbd2_log_wait_commit() with the same stale tid, and then wait for a very long time. To fix this, we replace the calls to jbd2_log_start_commit() and jbd2_log_wait_commit() with a call to a new function, jbd2_complete_transaction(), which will correctly handle stale tid's. As a bonus, jbd2_complete_transaction() will avoid locking j_state_lock for writing unless a commit needs to be started. This should have a small (but probably not measurable) improvement for ext4's scalability.

2012-09-29ext4: completed_io locking cleanupDmitry Monakhov
Current unwritten extent conversion state-machine is very fuzzy. - For unknown reason it performs conversion under i_mutex. What for? My diagnosis: We already protect extent tree with i_data_sem, truncate and punch_hole should wait for DIO, so the only data we have to protect is end_io->flags modification, but only flush_completed_IO and end_io_work modified this flags and we can serialize them via i_completed_io_lock. Currently all these games with mutex_trylock result in the following deadlock truncate: kworker: ext4_setattr ext4_end_io_work mutex_lock(i_mutex) inode_dio_wait(inode) ->BLOCK DEADLOCK<- mutex_trylock() inode_dio_done() #TEST_CASE1_BEGIN MNT=/mnt_scrach unlink $MNT/file fallocate -l $((1024*1024*1024)) $MNT/file aio-stress -I 100000 -O -s 100m -n -t 1 -c 10 -o 2 -o 3 $MNT/file sleep 2 truncate -s 0 $MNT/file #TEST_CASE1_END Or use 286's xfstests https://github.com/dmonakhov/xfstests/blob/devel/286 This patch makes state machine simple and clean: (1) xxx_end_io schedule final extent conversion simply by calling ext4_add_complete_io(), which append it to ei->i_completed_io_list NOTE1: because of (2A) work should be queued only if ->i_completed_io_list was empty, otherwise the work is scheduled already. (2) ext4_flush_completed_IO is responsible for handling all pending end_io from ei->i_completed_io_list Flushing sequence consists of following stages: A) LOCKED: Atomically drain completed_io_list to local_list B) Perform extents conversion C) LOCKED: move converted io's to to_free list for final deletion This logic depends on context which we was called from. D) Final end_io context destruction NOTE1: i_mutex is no longer required because end_io->flags modification is protected by ei->ext4_complete_io_lock Full list of changes: - Move all completion end_io related routines to page-io.c in order to improve logic locality - Move open coded logic from various xx_end_xx routines to ext4_add_complete_io() - remove EXT4_IO_END_FSYNC - Improve SMP scalability by removing useless i_mutex which does not protect io->flags anymore. - Reduce lock contention on i_completed_io_lock by optimizing list walk. - Rename ext4_end_io_nolock to end4_end_io and make it static - Check flush completion status to ext4_ext_punch_hole(). Because it is not good idea to punch blocks from corrupted inode.

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 b82e384c7b ("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).

2011-10-31ext4: optimize locking for end_io extent conversionTheodore Ts'o
Now that we are doing the locking correctly, we need to grab the i_completed_io_lock() twice per end_io. We can clean this up by removing the structure from the i_complted_io_list, and use this as the locking mechanism to prevent ext4_flush_completed_IO() racing against ext4_end_io_work(), instead of clearing the EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN in io->flag. In addition, if the ext4_convert_unwritten_extents() returns an error, we no longer keep the end_io structure on the linked list. This doesn't help, because it tends to lock up the file system and wedges the system. That's one way to call attention to the problem, but it doesn't help the overall robustness of the system.

2011-05-24ext4: fix waiting and sending of a barrier in ext4_sync_file()Jan Kara
jbd2_log_start_commit() returns 1 only when we really start a transaction. But we also need to wait for a transaction when the commit is already running. Fix this problem by waiting for transaction commit unconditionally (which is just a quick check if the transaction is already committed). Also we have to be more careful with sending of a barrier because when transaction is being committed in parallel to ext4_sync_file() running, we cannot be sure that the barrier the journalling code sends happens after we wrote all the data for fsync (note that not every data writeout needs to trigger metadata changes thus commit of some metadata changes can be running while other data is still written out). So use jbd2_will_send_data_barrier() helper to detect the common cases when we can be sure barrier will be issued by the commit code and issue the barrier ourselves in the remaining cases.

ext4 has taken the stance that, in the absence of a journal, when an fsync/fdatasync of an inode is done, the parent directory should be sync'ed if this inode entry is new. ext4_sync_parent(), which implements this, does indeed sync the dirent pages for parent directories, but it does not sync the directory *inode*.
