Aneesh Kumar K.V 1296cc85c2 ext4: Drop EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_UPDATE_RESERVE_SPACE flag
We should update reserve space if it is delalloc buffer
and that is indicated by EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE flag.
So use EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE in place of
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_UPDATE_RESERVE_SPACE

Aneesh Kumar K.V 5f634d064c ext4: Fix quota accounting error with fallocate
When we fallocate a region of the file which we had recently written,
and which is still in the page cache marked as delayed allocated blocks
we need to make sure we don't do the quota update on writepage path.
This is because the needed quota updated would have already be done
by fallocate.

Theodore Ts'o 9d0be50230 ext4: Calculate metadata requirements more accurately
In the past, ext4_calc_metadata_amount(), and its sub-functions
ext4_ext_calc_metadata_amount() and ext4_indirect_calc_metadata_amount()
badly over-estimated the number of metadata blocks that might be
required for delayed allocation blocks.  This didn't matter as much
when functions which managed the reserved metadata blocks were more
aggressive about dropping reserved metadata blocks as delayed
allocation blocks were written, but unfortunately they were too
aggressive.  This was fixed in commit 0637c6f, but as a result the
over-estimation by ext4_calc_metadata_amount() would lead to reserving
2-3 times the number of pending delayed allocation blocks as
potentially required metadata blocks.  So if there are 1 megabytes of
blocks which have been not yet been allocation, up to 3 megabytes of
space would get reserved out of the user's quota and from the file
system free space pool until all of the inode's data blocks have been
allocated.

This commit addresses this problem by much more accurately estimating
the number of metadata blocks that will be required.  It will still
somewhat over-estimate the number of blocks needed, since it must make
a worst case estimate not knowing which physical blocks will be
needed, but it is much more accurate than before.

Theodore Ts'o 0637c6f413 ext4: Patch up how we claim metadata blocks for quota purposes
As reported in Kernel Bugzilla #14936, commit d21cd8f triggered a BUG
in the function ext4_da_update_reserve_space() found in
fs/ext4/inode.c.  The root cause of this BUG() was caused by the fact
that ext4_calc_metadata_amount() can severely over-estimate how many
metadata blocks will be needed, especially when using direct
block-mapped files.

In addition, it can also badly *under* estimate how much space is
needed, since ext4_calc_metadata_amount() assumes that the blocks are
contiguous, and this is not always true.  If the application is
writing blocks to a sparse file, the number of metadata blocks
necessary can be severly underestimated by the functions
ext4_da_reserve_space(), ext4_da_update_reserve_space() and
ext4_da_release_space().  This was the cause of the dq_claim_space
reports found on kerneloops.org.

Unfortunately, doing this right means that we need to massively
over-estimate the amount of free space needed.  So in some cases we
may need to force the inode to be written to disk asynchronously in
to avoid spurious quota failures.

Richard Kennedy 2faf2e19dd ext4: return correct wbc.nr_to_write in ext4_da_writepages
When ext4_da_writepages increases the nr_to_write in writeback_control
then it must always re-base the return value.  Originally there was a
(misguided) attempt prevent wbc.nr_to_write from going negative.  In
fact, it's necessary to allow nr_to_write to be negative so that
wb_writeback() can correctly calculate how many pages were actually
written.

Eric Sandeen c8afb44682 ext4: flush delalloc blocks when space is low
Creating many small files in rapid succession on a small
filesystem can lead to spurious ENOSPC; on a 104MB filesystem:

for i in `seq 1 22500`; do
    echo -n > $SCRATCH_MNT/$i
    echo XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX > $SCRATCH_MNT/$i
done

leads to ENOSPC even though after a sync, 40% of the fs is free
again.

This is because we reserve worst-case metadata for delalloc writes,
and when data is allocated that worst-case reservation is not
usually needed.

When freespace is low, kicking off an async writeback will start
converting that worst-case space usage into something more realistic,
almost always freeing up space to continue.

This resolves the testcase for me, and survives all 4 generic
ENOSPC tests in xfstests.

We'll still need a hard synchronous sync to squeeze out the last bit,
but this fixes things up to a large degree.

Julia Lawall d3533d72e7 ext4: Eliminate potential double free on error path
b_entry_name and buffer are initially NULL, are initialized within a loop
to the result of calling kmalloc, and are freed at the bottom of this loop.
The loop contains gotos to cleanup, which also frees b_entry_name and
buffer.  Some of these gotos are before the reinitializations of
b_entry_name and buffer.  To maintain the invariant that b_entry_name and
buffer are NULL at the top of the loop, and thus acceptable arguments to
kfree, these variables are now set to NULL after the kfrees.

This seems to be the simplest solution.  A more complicated solution
would be to introduce more labels in the error handling code at the end of
the function.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r@
identifier E;
expression E1;
iterator I;
statement S;
@@

*kfree(E);
... when != E = E1
    when != I(E,...) S
    when != &E
*kfree(E);

Theodore Ts'o cc3e1bea5d ext4, jbd2: Add barriers for file systems with exernal journals
This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we
send barriers to the fs data disk.  We could just throw in an extra
barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal
disk, but that's not always strictly necessary.

We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data
blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in
ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks
to disk.  Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of
the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that
any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the
rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal.

Thanks to Oleg Drokin for pointing out this flaw in ext3/ext4.

Surbhi Palande 034fb4c95f ext4: replace BUG() with return -EIO in ext4_ext_get_blocks
This patch fixes the Kernel BZ #14286.  When the address of an extent
corresponding to a valid block is corrupted, a -EIO should be reported
instead of a BUG().  This situation should not normally not occur
except in the case of a corrupted filesystem.  If however it does,
then the system should not panic directly but depending on the mount
time options appropriate action should be taken. If the mount options
so permit, the I/O should be gracefully aborted by returning a -EIO.

This reverts commit e4c570c4cb, as
requested by Alexey:

 "I think I gave a good enough arguments to not merge it.
  To iterate:
   * patch makes impossible to start using ext3 on EXT3_FS=n kernels
     without reboot.
   * this is done only for one pointer on task_struct"

  None of config options which define task_struct are tristate directly

Christoph Hellwig 431547b3c4 sanitize xattr handler prototypes
Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
handler methods.  This allows using the same methods for multiple
handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
attribute.  With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.

Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
e.g. cifs.

André Goddard Rosa e7d2860b69 tree-wide: convert open calls to remove spaces to skip_spaces() lib function
Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading
spaces from strings all over the tree.

It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  64688     584     592   65864   10148 (TOTALS-BEFORE)
  64641     584     592   65817   10119 (TOTALS-AFTER)

Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to
remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space".

Julia Lawall tried the semantic patch (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr) below,
and found occurrences of this pattern on 3 more files:
    drivers/leds/led-class.c
    drivers/leds/ledtrig-timer.c
    drivers/video/output.c

expression str;
@@

( // ignore skip_spaces cases
while (*str &&  isspace(*str)) { \(str++;\|++str;\) }

Akira Fujita 4a58579b9e ext4: Fix insufficient checks in EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT
This patch fixes three problems in the handling of the
EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl:

1. In current EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, there are read access mode checks for
original and donor files, but they allow the illegal write access to
donor file, since donor file is overwritten by original file data.  To
fix this problem, change access mode checks of original (r->r/w) and
donor (r->w) files.

2.  Disallow the use of donor files that have a setuid or setgid bits.

3.  Call mnt_want_write() and mnt_drop_write() before and after
ext4_move_extents() calling to get write access to a mount.

Josef Bacik d4edac314e ext4: wait for log to commit when umounting
There is a potential race when a transaction is committing right when
the file system is being umounting.  This could reduce in a race
because EXT4_SB(sb)->s_group_info could be freed in ext4_put_super
before the commit code calls a callback so the mballoc code can
release freed blocks in the transaction, resulting in a panic trying
to access the freed s_group_info.

The fix is to wait for the transaction to finish committing before we
shutdown the multiblock allocator.

Jan Kara b9a4207d5e ext4: Avoid data / filesystem corruption when write fails to copy data
When ext4_write_begin fails after allocating some blocks or
generic_perform_write fails to copy data to write, we truncate blocks
already instantiated beyond i_size.  Although these blocks were never
inside i_size, we have to truncate the pagecache of these blocks so
that corresponding buffers get unmapped.  Otherwise subsequent
__block_prepare_write (called because we are retrying the write) will
find the buffers mapped, not call ->get_block, and thus the page will
be backed by already freed blocks leading to filesystem and data
corruption.

Add a new config option, CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23 which if enabled,
will cause ext4 to be used for either ext2 or ext3 file system mounts
when ext2 or ext3 is not enabled in the configuration.

This allows minimalist kernel fanatics to drop to file system drivers
from their compiled kernel with out losing functionality.

Kazuya Mio 446aaa6e7e ext4: initialize moved_len before calling ext4_move_extents()
The move_extent.moved_len is used to pass back the number of exchanged
blocks count to user space.  Currently the caller must clear this
field; but we spend more code space checking for this requirement than
simply zeroing the field ourselves, so let's just make life easier for
everyone all around.

Akira Fujita 94d7c16cbb ext4: Fix double-free of blocks with EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT
At the beginning of ext4_move_extent(), we call
ext4_discard_preallocations() to discard inode PAs of orig and donor
inodes.  But in the following case, blocks can be double freed, so
move ext4_discard_preallocations() to the end of ext4_move_extents().

1. Discard inode PAs of orig and donor inodes with
   ext4_discard_preallocations() in ext4_move_extents().

   orig : [ DATA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA2 ]

2. While data blocks are exchanging between orig and donor inodes, new
   inode PAs is created to orig by other process's block allocation.
   (Since there are semaphore gaps in ext4_move_extents().)  And new
   inode PAs is used partially (2-1).

   2-1 Create new inode PAs to orig inode
   orig : [ DATA1 | used PA1 | free PA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA2 ]

3. Donor inode which has old orig inode's blocks is deleted after
   EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished (3-1, 3-2).  So the block bitmap
   corresponds to old orig inode's blocks are freed.

   3-1 After EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished
   orig : [ DATA2 |  free PA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA1 |  used PA1 ]

   3-2 Delete donor inode
   orig : [ DATA2 |  free PA1 ]
   donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | FREE SPACE(used PA1) ]

4. The double-free of blocks is occurred, when close() is called to
   orig inode.  Because ext4_discard_preallocations() for orig inode
   frees used PA1 and free PA1, though used PA1 is already freed in 3.

   4-1 Double-free of blocks is occurred
   orig : [ DATA2 |  FREE SPACE(free PA1) ]
   donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | DOUBLE FREE(used PA1) ]

Theodore Ts'o 9084d47197 ext4: use ext4_data_block_valid() in ext4_free_blocks()
The block validity framework does a more comprehensive set of checks,
and it saves object code space to use the ext4_data_block_valid() than
the limited open-coded version that had been in ext4_free_blocks().

Theodore Ts'o e6362609b6 ext4: call ext4_forget() from ext4_free_blocks()
Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from
ext4_free_blocks().  This simplifies the code in a large number of
places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into
a single place.

Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling
ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the
conversion.  As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after
the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as
data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks.  With
this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the
EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

Theodore Ts'o 4433871130 ext4: fold ext4_free_blocks() and ext4_mb_free_blocks()
ext4_mb_free_blocks() is only called by ext4_free_blocks(), and the
latter function doesn't really do much.  So merge the two functions
together, such that ext4_free_blocks() is now found in
fs/ext4/mballoc.c.  This saves about 200 bytes of compiled text space.
