  • Basically, the pjdfstests set the ownership of a file to 06555, and then
    chowns it (as root) to a new uid/gid. Prior to commit a09f99eddef4 ("fuse:
    fix killing s[ug]id in setattr"), fuse would send down a setattr with both
    the uid/gid change and a new mode. Now, it just sends down the uid/gid
    change.

    Technically this is NOTABUG, since POSIX doesn't _require_ that we clear
    these bits for a privileged process, but Linux (wisely) has done that and I
    think we don't want to change that behavior here.

    This is caused by the use of should_remove_suid(), which will always return
    0 when the process has CAP_FSETID.

    In fact we really don't need to be calling should_remove_suid() at all,
    since we've already been indicated that we should remove the suid, we just
    don't want to use a (very) stale mode for that.

    This patch should fix the above as well as simplify the logic.

  • The ER records are printed without explicit log level presuming line
    continuation until "\n". After the commit 4bcc595ccd8 (printk:
    reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines), the ER records are
    printed a character per line.

    Adding KERN_CONT to appropriate printk statements restores the printout
    behavior.

  • Handling of recursion in d_real() is completely broken. Recursion is only
    done in the 'inode != NULL' case. But when opening the file we have
    'inode == NULL' hence d_real() will return an overlay dentry. This won't
    work since overlayfs doesn't define its own file operations, so all file
    ops will fail.

    Fix by doing the recursion first and the check against the inode second.

    Bash script to reproduce the issue written by Quentin:

    - 8< - - - - - 8< - - - - - 8< - - - - - 8< - - - -
    tmpdir=$(mktemp -d)
    pushd ${tmpdir}

    mkdir -p {upper,lower,work}
    echo -n 'rocks' > lower/ksplice
    mount -t overlay level_zero upper -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work
    cat upper/ksplice

    tmpdir2=$(mktemp -d)
    pushd ${tmpdir2}

    mkdir -p {upper,work}
    mount -t overlay level_one upper -o lowerdir=${tmpdir}/upper,upperdir=upper,workdir=work
    ls -l upper/ksplice
    cat upper/ksplice

  • Commit 2211d5ba5c6c ("posix_acl: xattr representation cleanups")
    removes the typedefs and the zero-length a_entries array in struct
    posix_acl_xattr_header, and uses bare struct posix_acl_xattr_header
    and struct posix_acl_xattr_entry directly.

    But it failed to iterate over posix acl slots when converting posix
    acls to CIFS format, which results in several test failures in
    xfstests (generic/053 generic/105) when testing against a samba v1
    server, starting from v4.9-rc1 kernel. e.g.

    [root@localhost xfstests]# diff -u tests/generic/105.out /root/xfstests/results//generic/105.out.bad

  • Commit 4fcd1813e640 ("Fix reconnect to not defer smb3 session reconnect
    long after socket reconnect") changes the behaviour of the SMB2 echo
    service and causes it to renegotiate after a socket reconnect. However
    under default settings, the echo service could take up to 120 seconds to
    be scheduled.

    The patch forces the echo service to be called immediately resulting a
    negotiate call being made immediately on reconnect.

  • A correct bugfix introduced a harmless warning that shows up with gcc-7:

    fs/nfs/callback.c: In function 'nfs_callback_up':
    fs/nfs/callback.c:214:14: error: array subscript is outside array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds]

    What happens here is that the 'minorversion == 0' check tells the
    compiler that we assume minorversion can be something other than 0,
    but when CONFIG_NFS_V4_1 is disabled that would be invalid and
    result in an out-of-bounds access.

    The added check for IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NFS_V4_1) tells gcc that this
    really can't happen, which makes the code slightly smaller and also
    avoids the warning.

    The bugfix that introduced the warning is marked for stable backports,
    we want this one backported to the same releases.

  • With the new (in 4.9) option to use a virtually-mapped stack
    (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK), stack buffers cannot be used as input/output for
    the scatterlist crypto API because they may not be directly mappable to
    struct page. get_crypt_info() was using a stack buffer to hold the
    output from the encryption operation used to derive the per-file key.
    Fix it by using a heap buffer.

    This bug could most easily be observed in a CONFIG_DEBUG_SG kernel
    because this allowed the BUG in sg_set_buf() to be triggered.

  • If the reply to a successful CLOSE call races with an OPEN to the same
    file, we can end up scribbling over the stateid that represents the
    new open state.
    The race looks like:

    Client Server
    ====== ======

    CLOSE stateid A on file "foo"
    CLOSE stateid A, return stateid C
    OPEN file "foo"
    OPEN "foo", return stateid B
    Receive reply to OPEN
    Reset open state for "foo"
    Associate stateid B to "foo"

    Receive CLOSE for A
    Reset open state for "foo"
    Replace stateid B with C

    The fix is to examine the argument of the CLOSE, and check for a match
    with the current stateid "other" field. If the two do not match, then
    the above race occurred, and we should just ignore the CLOSE.

  • The IOP_XATTR flag is set on sockfs because sockfs supports getting the
    "system.sockprotoname" xattr. Since commit 6c6ef9f2, this flag is checked for
    setxattr support as well. This is wrong on sockfs because security xattr
    support there is supposed to be provided by security_inode_setsecurity. The
    smack security module relies on socket labels (xattrs).

    Fix this by adding a security xattr handler on sockfs that returns
    -EAGAIN, and by checking for -EAGAIN in setxattr.

    We cannot simply check for -EOPNOTSUPP in setxattr because there are
    filesystems that neither have direct security xattr support nor support
    via security_inode_setsecurity. A more proper fix might be to move the
    call to security_inode_setsecurity into sockfs, but it's not clear to me
    if that is safe: we would end up calling security_inode_post_setxattr after
    that as well.

  • It could be not possible to freeze coredumping task when it waits for
    'core_state->startup' completion, because threads are frozen in
    get_signal() before they got a chance to complete 'core_state->startup'.

    Inability to freeze a task during suspend will cause suspend to fail.
    Also CRIU uses cgroup freezer during dump operation. So with an
    unfreezable task the CRIU dump will fail because it waits for a
    transition from 'FREEZING' to 'FROZEN' state which will never happen.

    Use freezer_do_not_count() to tell freezer to ignore coredumping task
    while it waits for core_state->startup completion.

  • i_size check is a leftover from the horrors that used to play with
    the page cache in that function. With the switch to ->read_iter(),
    it's neither needed nor correct - for gfs2 it ends up being buggy,
    since i_size is not guaranteed to be correct until later (inside
    ->read_iter()).

  • Splice read/write implementation changed recently. When using
    generic_file_splice_read(), iov_iter with type == ITER_PIPE is
    passed to filesystem's read_iter callback. But ceph_sync_read()
    can't serve ITER_PIPE iov_iter correctly (ITER_PIPE iov_iter
    expects pages from page cache).

    Fixing ceph_sync_read() requires a big patch. So use default
    splice read callback for now.

  • Pull orangefs fix from Mike Marshall:
    "We recently refactored the Orangefs debugfs code. The refactor seemed
    to trigger dan.carpenter@oracle.com's static tester to find a possible
    double-free in the code.

    While designing the fix we saw a condition under which the buffer
    being freed could also be overflowed.

    We also realized how to rebuild the related debugfs file's "contents"
    (a string) without deleting and re-creating the file.

    This fix should eliminate the possible double-free, the potential
    overflow and improve code readability"

  • We used to check for a valid layout type id before verifying pNFS flags
    as an indicator for if we are using pNFS. This changed in 3132e49ece
    with the introduction of multiple layout types, since now we are passing
    an array of ids instead of just one. Since then, users have been seeing
    a KERN_ERR printk show up whenever mounting NFS v4 without pNFS. This
    patch restores the original behavior of exiting set_pnfs_layoutdriver()
    early if we aren't using pNFS.

    Fixes 3132e49ece ("pnfs: track multiple layout types in fsinfo
    structure")

  • cl_rpcclient starts as ERR_PTR(-EINVAL), and connections like that
    are floating freely through the system. Most places check whether
    pointer is valid before dereferencing it, but newly added code
    in nfs_match_client does not.

    Which causes crashes when more than one NFS mount point is present.
