Commit ae54870a1dc9 ("ext3: Fix lock inversion in ext3_symlink()")
recalculated the number of credits needed for a long symlink, in the
process of splitting it into two transactions. However, the first
credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is enabled, credits
are needed to create the selinux xattr as well.Overrunning the reservation will result in an OOPS in
journal_dirty_metadata() due to this assert:J_ASSERT_JH(jh, handle->h_buffer_credits > 0);
Fix this by increasing the reservation size.

Replace the ->check_acl method with a ->get_acl method that simply reads an

This moves logic for checking the cached ACL values from low-level
filesystems into generic code. The end result is a streamlined ACL
check that doesn't need to load the inode->i_op->check_acl pointer at
all for the common cached case.The filesystems also don't need to check for a non-blocking RCU walk
case in their acl_check() functions, because that is all handled at a
VFS layer.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

When journalling data for an inode (either because it is a symlink or
because the filesystem is mounted in data=journal mode), ext3_evict_inode()
can discard unwritten data by calling truncate_inode_pages(). This is
because we don't mark the buffer / page dirty when journalling data but only
add the buffer to the running transaction and thus mm does not know there
are still unwritten data.Fix the problem by carefully tracking transaction containing inode's data,
committing this transaction, and writing uncheckpointed buffers when inode
should be reaped.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers. Some
file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
ocfs2. For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

Simple filesystems always pass inode->i_sb_bdev as the block device
argument, and never need a end_io handler. Let's simply things for
them and for my grepping activity by dropping these arguments. The
only thing not falling into that scheme is ext4, which passes and
end_io handler without needing special flags (yet), but given how
messy the direct I/O code there is use of __blockdev_direct_IO
in one instead of two out of three cases isn't going to make a large
difference anyway.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

Let filesystems handle waiting for direct I/O requests themselves instead

New truncate calling convention allows us to handle errors from
ext3_block_truncate_page(). So reorganize the code so that
ext3_block_truncate_page() is called before we change inode size.This also removes unnecessary block zeroing from error recovery after failed
buffered writes (zeroing isn't needed because we could have never written
non-zero data to disk). We have to be careful and keep zeroing in direct IO
write error recovery because there we might have already overwritten end of the
last file block.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Block allocation is called from two places: ext3_get_blocks_handle() and
ext3_xattr_block_set(). These two callers are not necessarily synchronized
because xattr code holds only xattr_sem and i_mutex, and
ext3_get_blocks_handle() may hold only truncate_mutex when called from
writepage() path. Block reservation code does not expect two concurrent
allocations to happen to the same inode and thus assertions can be triggered
or reservation structure corruption can occur.Fix the problem by taking truncate_mutex in xattr code to serialize
allocations.CC: Sage Weil

Mostly trivial conversion. We fix a bug that IS_IMMUTABLE and IS_APPEND files
could not be truncated during failed writes as we change the code. In fact the
test is not needed at all because both IS_IMMUTABLE and IS_APPEND is tested in
upper layers in do_sys_[f]truncate(), may_write(), etc.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or
anything else, so that the filesystem can track internally if it
needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not.This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet. I plan
to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting
this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid
tree interdependencies.Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block. That
has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

This fifth patch of eight in this cleancache series "opts-in"
cleancache for ext3. Filesystems must explicitly enable
cleancache by calling cleancache_init_fs anytime an instance
of the filesystem is mounted. For ext3, all other cleancache
hooks are in the VFS layer including the matching cleancache_flush_fs
hook which must be called on unmount.Details and a FAQ can be found in Documentation/vm/cleancache.txt

When make_indexed_dir() fails (e.g. because of ENOSPC) after it has allocated
block for index tree root, we did not properly mark all changed buffers dirty.
This lead to only some of these buffers being written out and thus effectively
corrupting the directory.Fix the issue by marking all changed data dirty even in the error failure case.

ext3_symlink() cannot call __page_symlink() with transaction open.
__page_symlink() calls ext3_write_begin() which gets page lock which ranks
above transaction start (thus lock ordering is violated) and and also
ext3_write_begin() waits for a transaction commit when we run out of space
which never happens if we hold transaction open.Fix the problem by stopping a transaction before calling __page_symlink()
(we have to be careful and put inode to orphan list so that it gets deleted
in case of crash) and starting another one after __page_symlink() returns
for addition of symlink into a directory.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara
