commit 4c63c2454eff996c5e27991221106eb511f7db38 upstream.

32-bit ioctl uses these rather than the regular FS_IOC_* versions. They can
be handled in btrfs using the same code. Without this, 32-bit {ch,ls}attr
fail.

  781                  }
  (...)

This happened because the item we were processing did not match a file
extent item (its key type != BTRFS_EXTENT_DATA_KEY), and even on this
case we cast the item to a struct btrfs_file_extent_item pointer and
then find a type field value that does not match any of the expected
values (BTRFS_FILE_EXTENT_[REG|PREALLOC|INLINE]). This scenario happens
due to a tiny time window where a race can happen as exemplified below.
For example, consider the following scenario where we're using the
NO_HOLES feature and we have the following two neighbour leafs:

               Leaf X (has N items)                    Leaf Y

[ ... (257 INODE_ITEM 0) (257 INODE_REF 256) ]  [ (257 EXTENT_DATA 8192), ... ]
          slot N - 2         slot N - 1              slot 0

Our inode 257 has an implicit hole in the range [0, 8K[ (implicit rather
than explicit because NO_HOLES is enabled). Now if our inode has an
ordered extent for the range [4K, 8K[ that is finishing, the following
can happen:

          CPU 1                                       CPU 2

  btrfs_finish_ordered_io()
    insert_reserved_file_extent()
      __btrfs_drop_extents()
         Searches for the key
          (257 EXTENT_DATA 4096) through
          btrfs_lookup_file_extent()

         Key not found and we get a path where
         path-&gt;nodes[0] == leaf X and
         path-&gt;slots[0] == N

         Because path-&gt;slots[0] is &gt;=
         btrfs_header_nritems(leaf X), we call
         btrfs_next_leaf()

         btrfs_next_leaf() releases the path

                                                  inserts key
                                                  (257 INODE_REF 4096)
                                                  at the end of leaf X,
                                                  leaf X now has N + 1 keys,
                                                  and the new key is at
                                                  slot N

         btrfs_next_leaf() searches for
         key (257 INODE_REF 256), with
         path-&gt;keep_locks set to 1,
         because it was the last key it
         saw in leaf X

           finds it in leaf X again and
           notices it's no longer the last
           key of the leaf, so it returns 0
           with path-&gt;nodes[0] == leaf X and
           path-&gt;slots[0] == N (which is now
           &lt; btrfs_header_nritems(leaf X)),
           pointing to the new key
           (257 INODE_REF 4096)

         __btrfs_drop_extents() casts the
         item at path-&gt;nodes[0], slot
         path-&gt;slots[0], to a struct
         btrfs_file_extent_item - it does
         not skip keys for the target
         inode with a type less than
         BTRFS_EXTENT_DATA_KEY
         (BTRFS_INODE_REF_KEY &lt; BTRFS_EXTENT_DATA_KEY)

         sees a bogus value for the type
         field triggering the WARN_ON in
         the trace shown above, and sets
         extent_end = search_start (4096)

         does the if-then-else logic to
         fixup 0 length extent items created
         by a past bug from hole punching:

           if (extent_end == key.offset &amp;&amp;
               extent_end &gt;= search_start)
               goto delete_extent_item;

         that evaluates to true and it ends
         up deleting the key pointed to by
         path-&gt;slots[0], (257 INODE_REF 4096),
         from leaf X

The same could happen for example for a xattr that ends up having a key
with an offset value that matches search_start (very unlikely but not
impossible).

So fix this by ensuring that keys smaller than BTRFS_EXTENT_DATA_KEY are
skipped, never casted to struct btrfs_file_extent_item and never deleted
by accident. Also protect against the unexpected case of getting a key
for a lower inode number by skipping that key and issuing a warning.

commit 514ac8ad8793a097c0c9d89202c642479d6dfa34 upstream.

If we truncate an uncompressed inline item, ram_bytes isn't updated to reflect
the new size.  The fixe uses the size directly from the item header when
reading uncompressed inlines, and also fixes truncate to update the
size as it goes.

Tests show that the original large intervals can easily make the dirty
limit exceeded on 100 concurrent dd's. So adapt to as large as the
next check point selected by the dirty throttling algorithm.

<id>urn:sha1:22c44fe65adacd20a174f3f54686509ee94ef7be</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that we're properly keeping track of delayed inode space we've been getting
a lot of warnings out of btrfs_dirty_inode() when running xfstest 83.  This is
because a bunch of people call mark_inode_dirty, which is void so we can't
return ENOSPC.  This needs to be fixed in a few areas

1) file_update_time - this updates the mtime and such when writing to a file,
which will call mark_inode_dirty.  So copy file_update_time into btrfs so we can
call btrfs_dirty_inode directly and return an error if we get one appropriately.

2) fix symlinks to use btrfs_setattr for -&gt;setattr.  For some reason we weren't
setting -&gt;setattr for symlinks, even though we should have been.  This catches
one of the cases where we were getting errors in mark_inode_dirty.

3) Fix btrfs_setattr and btrfs_setsize to call btrfs_dirty_inode directly
instead of mark_inode_dirty.  This lets us return errors properly for truncate
and chown/anything related to setattr.

4) Add a new btrfs_fs_dirty_inode which will just call btrfs_dirty_inode and
print an error if we have one.  The only remaining user we can't control for
this is touch_atime(), but we don't really want to keep people from walking
down the tree if we don't have space to save the atime update, so just complain
but don't worry about it.

With this patch xfstests 83 complains a handful of times instead of hundreds of
times.  Thanks,

The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts.  Independent processes
accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though
they have no need for synchronization at all.

Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger
systems.

This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model:

First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks
on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today.
This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable.
The patch does not change that.

Let's look at the different seek variants:

SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking.
If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses.

For 32bit the non atomic update races against read()
stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen
against write() now.  The read() race was deemed
acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's
ok for read it's ok for write too.

=&gt; Don't need a lock.

SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads
the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the
32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read
the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we
can just use that instead.

Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore,
however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves
like another racy SEEK_SET.  On non atomic 32bit it's the same
as SEEK_SET.

=&gt; Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read()

SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window
on the same file. One could argue that any application
doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken.
But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm
using the file-&gt;f_lock to synchronize this. Using this
lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't
synchronize between processes.

=&gt; So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock.

This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek.
I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.

Johannes pointed out we were allocating only kernel pages for doing writes,
which is kind of a big deal if you are on 32bit and have more than a gig of ram.
So fix our allocations to use the mapping's gfp but still clear __GFP_FS so we
don't re-enter.  Thanks,

Lukas found a problem where if he tries to fallocate over the same region twice
and the first fallocate took up all the space we would fail with ENOSPC.  This
is because we reserve the total space we want to use for fallocate, regardless
of wether or not we will have to actually preallocate.  So instead move the
check into the loop where we actually have to do the preallocate.  Thanks,
