  • Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
    userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
    memcg. For the list, see below:

    - threadinfo
    - task_struct
    - task_delay_info
    - pid
    - cred
    - mm_struct
    - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
    - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
    - signal_struct
    - sighand_struct
    - fs_struct
    - files_struct
    - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits
    - dentry and external_name
    - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
    most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.

    The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
    Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
    keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to
    breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
    everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
    fact).

  • Fix B-tree corruption when a new record is inserted at position 0 in the
    node in hfs_brec_insert().

    This is an identical change to the corresponding hfs b-tree code to Sergei
    Antonov's "hfsplus: fix B-tree corruption after insertion at position 0",
    to keep similar code paths in the hfs and hfsplus drivers in sync, where
    appropriate.

  • Pages looked up by __hfs_bnode_create() (called by hfs_bnode_create() and
    hfs_bnode_find() for finding or creating pages corresponding to an inode)
    are immediately kmap()'ed and used (both read and write) and kunmap()'ed,
    and should not be page_cache_release()'ed until hfs_bnode_free().

    This patch fixes a problem I first saw in July 2012: merely running "du"
    on a large hfsplus-mounted directory a few times on a reasonably loaded
    system would get the hfsplus driver all confused and complaining about
    B-tree inconsistencies, and generates a "BUG: Bad page state". Most
    recently, I can generate this problem on up-to-date Fedora 22 with shipped
    kernel 4.0.5, by running "du /" (="/" + "/home" + "/mnt" + other smaller
    mounts) and "du /mnt" simultaneously on two windows, where /mnt is a
    lightly-used QEMU VM image of the full Mac OS X 10.9:

    $ df -i / /home /mnt
    Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on
    /dev/mapper/fedora-root 3276800 551665 2725135 17% /
    /dev/mapper/fedora-home 52879360 716221 52163139 2% /home
    /dev/nbd0p2 4294967295 1387818 4293579477 1% /mnt

    After applying the patch, I was able to run "du /" (60+ times) and "du
    /mnt" (150+ times) continuously and simultaneously for 6+ hours.

    There are many reports of the hfsplus driver getting confused under load
    and generating "BUG: Bad page state" or other similar issues over the
    years. [1]

    The unpatched code [2] has always been wrong since it entered the kernel
    tree. The only reason why it gets away with it is that the
    kmap/memcpy/kunmap follow very quickly after the page_cache_release() so
    the kernel has not had a chance to reuse the memory for something else,
    most of the time.

    The current RW driver appears to have followed the design and development
    of the earlier read-only hfsplus driver [3], where-by version 0.1 (Dec
    2001) had a B-tree node-centric approach to
    read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put(),
    migrating towards version 0.2 (June 2002) of caching and releasing pages
    per inode extents. When the current RW code first entered the kernel [2]
    in 2005, there was an REF_PAGES conditional (and "//" commented out code)
    to switch between B-node centric paging to inode-centric paging. There
    was a mistake with the direction of one of the REF_PAGES conditionals in
    __hfs_bnode_create(). In a subsequent "remove debug code" commit [4], the
    read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put() were
    removed, but a page_cache_release() was mistakenly left in (propagating
    the "REF_PAGES !REF_PAGE" mistake), and the commented-out
    page_cache_release() in bnode_release() (which should be spanned by
    !REF_PAGES) was never enabled.

  • Many file systems that implement the show_options hook fail to correctly
    escape their output which could lead to unescaped characters (e.g. new
    lines) leaking into /proc/mounts and /proc/[pid]/mountinfo files. This
    could lead to confusion, spoofed entries (resulting in things like
    systemd issuing false d-bus "mount" notifications), and who knows what
    else. This looks like it would only be the root user stepping on
    themselves, but it's possible weird things could happen in containers or
    in other situations with delegated mount privileges.

    Here's an example using overlay with setuid fusermount trusting the
    contents of /proc/mounts (via the /etc/mtab symlink). Imagine the use
    of "sudo" is something more sneaky:

    $ BASE="ovl"
    $ MNT="$BASE/mnt"
    $ LOW="$BASE/lower"
    $ UP="$BASE/upper"
    $ WORK="$BASE/work/ 0 0
    none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000"
    $ mkdir -p "$LOW" "$UP" "$WORK"
    $ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=$LOW,upperdir=$UP,workdir=$WORK" none /mnt
    $ cat /proc/mounts
    none /root/ovl/mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=ovl/lower,upperdir=ovl/upper,workdir=ovl/work/ 0 0
    none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000 0 0
    $ fusermount -u /proc
    $ cat /proc/mounts
    cat: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory

    This fixes the problem by adding new seq_show_option and
    seq_show_option_n helpers, and updating the vulnerable show_option
    handlers to use them as needed. Some, like SELinux, need to be open
    coded due to unusual existing escape mechanisms.

  • With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
    declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
    unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
    makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.

    This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
    essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files
    which need access to more backing-dev details now include
    backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common
    include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
    and cgroup.

  • Relying on the sign (after casting to int) of the difference of two
    quantities for comparison is usually wrong. For example, should a-b
    turn out to be 2^31, the return value of cmp(a,b) is -2^31; but that
    would also be the return value from cmp(b, a). So a compares less than
    b and b compares less than a. One can also easily find three values
    a,b,c such that a compares less than b, b compares less than c, but a
    does not compare less than c.

  • Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon
    evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an
    iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point,
    reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing
    code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty.

    Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets
    under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check
    for this flag before installing shadow pages.

  • Previously, the no-op "mount -o mount /dev/xxx" operation when the
    file system is already mounted read-write causes an implied,
    unconditional syncfs(). This seems pretty stupid, and it's certainly
    documented or guaraunteed to do this, nor is it particularly useful,
    except in the case where the file system was mounted rw and is getting
    remounted read-only.

    However, it's possible that there might be some file systems that are
    actually depending on this behavior. In most file systems, it's
    probably fine to only call sync_filesystem() when transitioning from
    read-write to read-only, and there are some file systems where this is
    not needed at all (for example, for a pseudo-filesystem or something
    like romfs).

  • Instances either don't look at it at all (the majority of cases) or
    only want it to find the superblock (which can be had as dentry->d_sb).
    A few cases that want more are actually safe with dentry->d_inode -
    the only precaution needed is the check that it hadn't been replaced with
    NULL by rmdir() or by overwriting rename(), which case should be simply
    treated as cache miss.

  • Commit 634725a92938 ("hfs: cleanup HFS+ prints") removed the BUG_ON in
    hfs_bnode_create in hfsplus. This patch removes it from the hfs version
    and avoids an fsfuzzer crash.

  • Merge more incoming from Andrew Morton:

    - Various fixes which were stalled or which I picked up recently

    - A large rotorooting of the AIO code. Allegedly to improve
    performance but I don't really have good performance numbers (I might
    have lost the email) and I can't raise Kent today. I held this out
    of 3.9 and we could give it another cycle if it's all too late/scary.

    I ended up taking only the first two thirds of the AIO rotorooting. I
    left the percpu parts and the batch completion for later. - Linus

  • Use a more current logging style.

    Add #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
    hfsplus now uses "hfsplus: " for all messages.
    Coalesce formats.
    Prefix debugging messages too.

  • hfs_find_init() may fail with ENOMEM, but there are places, where the
    returned value is not checked. The consequences can be very unpleasant,
    e.g. kfree uninitialized pointer and inappropriate mutex unlocking.

    The patch adds checks for errors in hfs_find_init().
