ext4: avoid negative min_clusters in find_group_orlov()

2024-11-08T15:19:06+00:00

[ Upstream commit bb0a12c3439b10d88412fd3102df5b9a6e3cd6dc ] min_clusters is signed integer and will be converted to unsigned integer when compared with unsigned number stats.free_clusters. If min_clusters is negative, it will be converted to a huge unsigned value in which case all groups may not meet the actual desired free clusters. Set negative min_clusters to 0 to avoid unexpected behavior.

ext4: make directory inode spreading reflect flexbg size

2022-09-28T09:02:58+00:00

commit 613c5a85898d1cd44e68f28d65eccf64a8ace9cf upstream. Currently the Orlov inode allocator searches for free inodes for a directory only in flex block groups with at most inodes_per_group/16 more directory inodes than average per flex block group. However with growing size of flex block group this becomes unnecessarily strict. Scale allowed difference from average directory count per flex block group with flex block group size as we do with other metrics.

ext4: fix check to prevent false positive report of incorrect used inodes

2021-05-22T08:59:21+00:00

commit a149d2a5cabbf6507a7832a1c4fd2593c55fd450 upstream. Commit <50122847007> ("ext4: fix check to prevent initializing reserved inodes") check the block group zero and prevent initializing reserved inodes. But in some special cases, the reserved inode may not all belong to the group zero, it may exist into the second group if we format filesystem below. mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -g 8192 -N 1024 -I 4096 /dev/sda So, it will end up triggering a false positive report of a corrupted file system. This patch fix it by avoid check reserved inodes if no free inode blocks will be zeroed.

ext4: increase wait time needed before reuse of deleted inode numbers

2020-05-02T15:25:59+00:00

[ Upstream commit a17a9d935dc4a50acefaf319d58030f1da7f115a ] Current wait times have proven to be too short to protect against inode reuses that lead to metadata inconsistencies. Now that we will retry the inode allocation if we can't find any recently deleted inodes, it's a lot safer to increase the recently deleted time from 5 seconds to a minute.

ext4: fix potential race between s_flex_groups online resizing and access

2020-02-28T15:38:57+00:00

commit 7c990728b99ed6fbe9c75fc202fce1172d9916da upstream. During an online resize an array of s_flex_groups structures gets replaced so it can get enlarged. If there is a concurrent access to the array and this memory has been reused then this can lead to an invalid memory access. The s_flex_group array has been converted into an array of pointers rather than an array of structures. This is to ensure that the information contained in the structures cannot get out of sync during a resize due to an accessor updating the value in the old structure after it has been copied but before the array pointer is updated. Since the structures them- selves are no longer copied but only the pointers to them this case is mitigated.

ext4: avoid declaring fs inconsistent due to invalid file handles

2019-01-09T16:38:43+00:00

commit 8a363970d1dc38c4ec4ad575c862f776f468d057 upstream. If we receive a file handle, either from NFS or open_by_handle_at(2), and it points at an inode which has not been initialized, and the file system has metadata checksums enabled, we shouldn't try to get the inode, discover the checksum is invalid, and then declare the file system as being inconsistent. This can be reproduced by creating a test file system via "mke2fs -t ext4 -O metadata_csum /tmp/foo.img 8M", mounting it, cd'ing into that directory, and then running the following program. #define _GNU_SOURCE #include struct handle { struct file_handle fh; unsigned char fid[MAX_HANDLE_SZ]; }; int main(int argc, char **argv) { struct handle h = {{8, 1 }, { 12, }}; open_by_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, &h.fh, O_RDONLY); return 0; } Google-Bug-Id: 120690101 Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ext4: fix check to prevent initializing reserved inodes

2018-07-29T19:34:00+00:00

Commit 8844618d8aa7: "ext4: only look at the bg_flags field if it is valid" will complain if block group zero does not have the EXT4_BG_INODE_ZEROED flag set. Unfortunately, this is not correct, since a freshly created file system has this flag cleared. It gets almost immediately after the file system is mounted read-write --- but the following somewhat unlikely sequence will end up triggering a false positive report of a corrupted file system: mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdc mount -o ro /dev/vdc /vdc mount -o remount,rw /dev/vdc Instead, when initializing the inode table for block group zero, test to make sure that itable_unused count is not too large, since that is the case that will result in some or all of the reserved inodes getting cleared. This fixes the failures reported by Eric Whiteney when running generic/230 and generic/231 in the the nojournal test case.
