So far we did not return BH_New buffers from ext2_get_blocks() when we
allocated and zeroed-out a block for DAX inode to avoid racy zeroing in
DAX code. This zeroing is gone these days so we can remove the
workaround.Reviewed-by: Ross Zwisler

structure were named iomap_dax_rw(), iomap_dax_fault() and
iomap_dax_actor(). These are actually defined in fs/dax.c, though, so
should be part of the "dax" namespace and not the "iomap" namespace.

DAX PMD support was added via the following commit:
commit e7b1ea2ad658 ("ext2: huge page fault support")
I believe this path to be untested as ext2 doesn't reliably provide block
allocations that are aligned to 2MiB. In my testing I've been unable to
get ext2 to actually fault in a PMD. It always fails with a "pfn
unaligned" message because the sector returned by ext2_get_block() isn't
aligned.I've tried various settings for the "stride" and "stripe_width" extended
options to mkfs.ext2, without any luck.Since we can't reliably get PMDs, remove support so that we don't have an
untested code path that we may someday traverse when we happen to get an
aligned block allocation. This should also make 4k DAX faults in ext2 a
bit faster since they will no longer have to call the PMD fault handler
only to get a response of VM_FAULT_FALLBACK.Signed-off-by: Ross Zwisler

On ARM, we get this false-positive warning since the rework of
the ext2_get_blocks interface:fs/ext2/inode.c: In function 'ext2_get_block':
include/linux/buffer_head.h:340:16: error: 'bno' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]The calling conventions for this function are rather complex, and it's
not surprising that the compiler gets this wrong, I spent a long time
trying to understand how it all fits together myself.This change to avoid the warning makes sure the compiler sees that we
always set 'bno' pointer whenever we have a positive return code.
The transformation is correct because we always arrive at the 'got_it'
label with a positive count that gets used as the return value, while
any branch to the 'cleanup' label has a negative or zero 'err'.Fixes: 6750ad71986d ("ext2: stop passing buffer_head to ext2_get_blocks")

Pull xfs and iomap updates from Dave Chinner:
"The main things in this update are the iomap-based DAX infrastructure,
an XFS delalloc rework, and a chunk of fixes to how log recovery
schedules writeback to prevent spurious corruption detections when
recovery of certain items was not required.The other main chunk of code is some preparation for the upcoming
reflink functionality. Most of it is generic and cleanups that stand
alone, but they were ready and reviewed so are in this pull request.Speaking of reflink, I'm currently planning to send you another pull
request next week containing all the new reflink functionality. I'm
working through a similar process to the last cycle, where I sent the
reverse mapping code in a separate request because of how large it
was. The reflink code merge is even bigger than reverse mapping, so
I'll be doing the same thing again....Summary for this update:
- change of XFS mailing list to linux-xfs@vger.kernel.org
- iomap-based DAX infrastructure w/ XFS and ext2 support
- small iomap fixes and additions
- more efficient XFS delayed allocation infrastructure based on iomap
- a rework of log recovery writeback scheduling to ensure we don't
fail recovery when trying to replay items that are already on disk- some preparation patches for upcoming reflink support

This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they

When file permissions are modified via chmod(2) and the user is not in
the owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit is cleared in
inode_change_ok(). Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr(2) sets the file
permissions as well as the new ACL, but doesn't clear the setgid bit in
a similar way; this allows to bypass the check in chmod(2). Fix that.References: CVE-2016-7097

Remove the unused wrappers dax_fault() and dax_pmd_fault(). After this
removal, rename __dax_fault() and __dax_pmd_fault() to dax_fault() and
dax_pmd_fault() respectively, and update all callers.The dax_fault() and dax_pmd_fault() wrappers were initially intended to
capture some filesystem independent functionality around page faults
(calling sb_start_pagefault() & sb_end_pagefault(), updating file mtime
and ctime).However, the following commits:
5726b27b09cc ("ext2: Add locking for DAX faults")
ea3d7209ca01 ("ext4: fix races between page faults and hole punching")added locking to the ext2 and ext4 filesystems after these common
operations but before __dax_fault() and __dax_pmd_fault() were called.
This means that these wrappers are no longer used, and are unlikely to
be used in the future.XFS has had locking analogous to what was recently added to ext2 and
ext4 since DAX support was initially introduced by:6b698edeeef0 ("xfs: add DAX file operations support")

This bug can be reproducible with fsfuzzer, although, I couldn't reproduce it
100% of my tries, it is quite easily reproducible.During the deletion of an inode, ext2_xattr_delete_inode() does not check if the
block pointed by EXT2_I(inode)->i_file_acl is a valid data block, this might
lead to a deadlock, when i_file_acl == 1, and the filesystem block size is 1024.In that situation, ext2_xattr_delete_inode, will load the superblock's buffer
head (instead of a valid i_file_acl block), and then lock that buffer head,
which, ext2_sync_super will also try to lock, making the filesystem deadlock in

have i_file_acl pointing to a 'valid' block, but still step over the superblock.
